Fraud, Deceit or just plain stupidity!

That sort of thing is fraud, doctoring up a piece and deliberately leaving out material information (the mismatched components) and you'd have been within your rights to return the piece for a refund. Will it turn off collectors? I don't think so, you lick your wounds, learn your lesson and be more careful the next time.

I've bought guns from AuctionArms and Gunbroker and can't complain. But, I'm generally a shooter type, and just haven't jumped into the deep end of the pool for big bucks. Figure I can't get hurt too bad that way and there's always going to be a market for shooters. It's nice having the pristine pieces pulling up the low end ones. Never buy the nicest house on the block.
