I got screwed by an Ebayer (Amplifier Burnt)

if it is just 1 blown, they are pretty cheap if you can identify them.

You would have to change the whole row, if you just swap out one there will be a slight variation between the old transistors and the new ones and it will just blow again.

I am truly sorry about this. It was actually my friends amp and from what I knew, it worked fine. He told me it was working and I thought it was. I did not in any way mean to sell you a bad amplifier, as you can see, my ebay feedback is positive and I try to be as fair as possible. If the item did not work then I can offer you a refund which I assume you would like. If you could also send me the pictures of the inside of the amp as well, that would be great. Not that I don't trust you but I would like to have it for documentation. I can send you a refund for the purchase price and the difference in the refund I gave you for shipping. Again, I am sorry and I assure you this was a mix up. I hope you understand.

See what happens when you trust your "friend"

Thats cool he sorted it out. So what you gonna do with the amp now?

I always make a vid of my items working, just before I put them in a box to post. That way if theres any problems, I got vid of it working just before shipping. I havent had to use them yet, but its cheap insurance when some noob frys your 200 dollar amp and wants a refund due to his ignorance.

Glad to hear it worked out well for once. Make sure to leave him positive feedback, with the info of what happened. One + feedback with a story like this means about 50 "good seller" feedbacks to me.

Sounds like you got a good deal then. Don't know what the amp's worth, but you could get it repaired easy i'm sure.

fix the amp and sell it or use it and it will be a good deal
