Any other time, this would be acceptable. If someone pays for overnight shipping, you'd think it would be in your best interest to inspect the parts you are sending them if there are known issues.

Or some kind of disclaimer... ? its just ridiculous. I know it happens on reman parts, you can't always get everything perfect but it's misleading to offer a product at the same level of expectations as new parts.

Is it really cheaper for a retailer, in the long run, to ship bad parts to customers instead doing their own QC once issues arise? BS.
