Post by: Retrodan72 on February 24, 2012, 05:48 PM: Don't take it back, they were shat in the first place, they may make it worse. Phone them and tell them you're not happy and get your money back, then send it to Dan, which is where you should have sent it in th first place. ::)

No need to thank me. :daumenhoch: :LolLolLolLol:
