anyone ever buy from these guys

ok, this turned into a journey. i'll try to keep it short and sweet. my trans showed up late after contacting Fedex several times and getting in touch with a customer advocate to help me.
the crate was a disaster and when i first seen it the input shaft was sticking out of the crate. when i opened it up the trans was upside down and scratched to hell and there was a bad inpact mark where the bell housing mates that pushed that surface out.
i was shocked to see the transmission come to me without a bell housing or tail housing. the ad didn't state that so i had to fight mine off the old trans. bell housing was a bitch. then i noticed the shift shaft was too short so i had to open it up and swap that out too.
finally though after a week of hell its in and it shifts great. the seller always had fast responses and i'm unsure if the destroyed crate was his doing or the shippers. i know the transmission was dropped. also description stated a new speed sensor which would have been in the tail housing that wasn't included.
got lots of pics of what i received if anybody wants me to post.
beyond this, my truck is back on the road, shifting great. second gear shift pops the tires loose at about 1/4 throttle. i haven't gotten a full throttle hit yet due to traction but the transmission feels great as of now.
