I need a tele top hat switch. Bought one on eBay, the picture looked OK. The one that was sent was garbage, with deep indent/holes on both sides.
I messaged him back saying that is was very poor and didn't match his picture.
He said OK, send it back and I'll put it down as a refund because you no longer want the item.
On principIe, I said, no, it's not that I don't want it, it is very poor quality and doesn't match the picture.
He said yes it does match the picture
I sent him a link to a picture of it. I said that I wasn't bothered about a refund (it was only about £2 inc postage!).
he ignored my link and asked me to send a picture, although provided no email address. Also adding: Please be aware a genuine Fender parts sell for £11.15 plus postage. This may explain your confusion.
I'm not bloody confused!!! your picture doesn't represent the crap you are selling!!!! I'm not one for giving a trader negative feedback over a very cheap item, but this guy is pretty annoying.
Anyone got a decent Top hat switch that they want to sell????

Generic is very slightly taller than the Allparts.
When you say the one you received had deep intents/holes, were they part of the molding or damage?
Paypal claim for not as described, and leave negative feedback. It's more for the attitude than the product.
Sometimes the fact that Ebay has given the buyer all the power now is actually useful.

The irony of the situation is that I ordered the wrong one! the slot is too small ...
You can actually fix this quite easily, and also make it almost proof against coming off - heat the switch lever with a soldering iron and push the cap down onto it. Make sure the switch doesn't get too hot...
