When you unpack a new F90BT do you get the following?

 

Cage

Fascia surround

RCA Pre Out lead?

 

If you get one on Ebay and these items are not specifed as being in the auction would you expect to receive these?

Given that you got it for a several hundred dollars less than the retail price?

 

Need to resolve a dispute.

Thanks,

IMO: The seller should plainly and conspicuously note exactly what the buyer is getting; a box, an F90, harnasses, etc. If that information isn't noted, the buyer should ask specific questions. I _hate_ shady eBay sellers that don't openly come out and say, for example, that the unit is missing the antenna or something else. But, if the seller doesn't know exactly what comes with the unit and states, again plainly and conspicuously, "the unit is as-is and I don't know what else goes with it, what is pictured is exactly what comes with it" then the buyer is responsible. Price is not a determining factor because there are some great deals that come with everything sometimes cheaper than items missing parts.

Thanks I descibed it as this.

 

You get the GPS aeriel but not the microphone and Ipod control lead. These are available on Ebay for a small amount.

This auction is for the really expensive bit.

 

 

Which is the head unit itself

 

I didn't specifically mention the other bits because I didn't get them when I bought it. The RCA pre out lead is I feel an optional extra because the unit works well enough without a power amp indeed I don't have one installed. As for the cage again I dont have one in my install and as for the fascia surround I feel that there are many different types depending on your car so again I think thats an optional extra. Again not used in my install.

 

To buy the three items on Ebay is about $100 purely as a as a good will gesture I've offered the buyer half of that. Which is enough to buy the RCA lead. I am trying very hard to be reasonable about it.

You really ought to have been more explicit about what came with the unit, but again that is my opinion from a buyers perspective. You weren't deceitful or anything resembling a scam, just not clear about contents and therefore there was a miscommunication.
