You get what you pay for. Sure, it’s $1000 less but if it’s fucked. What happens next? You just wasted hours of your time just to save $1000. Is it worth it to you?
Personally, I’m a bit of a hypocrite myself because I didn’t buy my motor from Varun either but I needed a motor quickly and I didn’t have the money at the time. As soon as I bought the motor, it seemed sketchy and there was nothing I could do. I wished that I had bought it from Varun in the first place to be honest. It takes a lot of the worry out of the equation.
