Buying Used Equipment?

[BCOrchidGuy]

The day before I bought some corals from a guy local, great experience, he gave me great choices and was more than generous.

I don't mind when people are honest, "hey there are a couple of loose connections but it should be easy to fix".

I seriously was choked though at the text exchange
10am ish text says he is going down to check on them, next day he says, come by anytime before 6, just give me 10 min notice, I'm headed down to check them. I text him a couple hours later saying I'm 15 min away and he says "I thought you'd give me time to check them and clean them up PLUS I've gone to get food so I'm not there".

Now he is rebutting saying I never told him when I was coming over and I didn't give him any notice or a chance to check the lights...

I would have taken the lights had he told me even en route that there was an issue but to wait until I got there... majorly upset
