Since you bought it on ebay, the seller might take offense and give you
negative feedback. Talk to the seller and see if and how he reconsiders.
Should you buy from ferdi??? Only if you can't find another source and
hopefully you don't have a problem. I guess out of the years of defending
NTLK'ers from ferdi, only three people have positive emails to me about his
products, usually the price was high but the product was available. But I
have many negative emails about before, during, and after the sale to ever
recommend him as a source. Sorry.
