    What would you recommend?

    I ordered oxygen sensor harness extensions for the GTO (LS2/OBII) and received the wrong ones (fronts, I wanted rears for the post cat sensor)

    The vendor, Kooks, offered to take them back with no restocking fee. Given the shelping involved in shipping the 2 harnesses back versus the $50 credit I will receive, would you keep the harness extensions for future needs for yourself/a fellow junkie OR have a $50 credit applied today against your credit card account?

      Tom, take the credit unless you are sure the parts will be used. Most all the crap I have held onto is worth 50% of face value not to mention misplaced, lost or some how ended up in someone elses posesion. IMHO

              not as effective as the drugs that the elected folks administer to themselves. At the risk of sounding like an apologist for the taxman, they are only trying to work with what they got which is crap tax legislation. The problem is with the lawmakers :-\

                                Tom, I am sorry as I didn't mean to offend and I wasn't talking about the tax rules themselves as much as the methods they use to determine what one owes.

                                Tie a string to your left index finger then run the string between your third and fourth toe on your right foot. While maintaining enough tension on the string to keep it straight and not allowing it to touch any other body parts determine the distance between the string and your genitals. If less than zero subtract 13 from the number of "partners" you have had during this tax year and multiply that number by the number of non Ford vehicles in your driveway to determine if you are qualified to take a mental health deduction.

                                I just get grumpy this time of year as I always get reminded by my uncle of how inconsiderate I am - the audacity of me squandering money on food and shealter that I could allow others to use as they see fit for the benevolence of people I don't know.
