Actually i was wrong about what was paid. here's the numbers sold you the
used scooter ( a unit bought brand new off a local shop) had few dives
worked well and didn't leak when sold. Shipped it to you, you used it Curt
called to let John know it leaked, John paid over 350 (not the 450 i
metioned) to have the motor rewound and leaks repaired. Will send you a copy
of the bill if you like. Curt called to say it needed another 150. for a
center section, Curt was told no more, tell him we'll take it  back and
refund him the money. You bought a relatively new mako with a interacter
charger for 800. John put 350. into it on yours and Curts word. So now he
sold the scooter for 450 dollars now you guys tell him for another 150. it
will be alright. I'm sorry it didn't work out for you but i think all that
could be done was except sending it back and getting your money back when
that was an option. I don't know what transpired between the scooter, you
and curt. but the bill is up here (and paid in full). So if you pay to have
a motor removed rebuilt and reinstalled and they unit leaks after that whose
responsibilty is that? No one ever questioned the intial repair and it was
as i said paid for. The scooter was taken complete apart to repair it and
after assemly and repair it leaked again. ummmm.
