> I bought one for my wife's SUV.  It was a complete piece of garbage.  It
> wasn't a manual at all, just a CD full of .pdf files.  As if that wasn't
> bad enough, the .pdf files were absolutely horrible, and there were some
> key pieces missing, such as brakes, engine, etc.  There was quite a bit
> of electronics and heating information, and some suspension stuff.

> I emailed the seller, and told him how unhappy I was.  I politely asked
> for my money back, and in exchange I would still leave him decent
> feedback.  He refused to even respond to my email!  I then took it upon
> myself to watch his other auctions for similar items, and warned the
> bidders (when people did bid) about my experience.  They almost always
> retracted their bids, costing this seller a good chunk of change.

> After a couple of weeks of this, and hundreds of dollars in sales lost,
> I emailed him again.  Told him what I did, and pointed out which

> if and only if he refunded my money.

> Oddly enough, he did.

> I still haven't left feedback; I'm not quite sure how to sum this up in
