Too cheap to be true projector saga update.
This was an eBay deal, so I was surprised when an Amazon delivery arrived with 2 weighted bases for the projector.
eBay message from seller asking me to return one.
It is a scam, as I've paid over the odds for a fairly cheap but not junk product (the bases) that are not what I wanted and now I have to return one.
Why did they use Amazon to send the parts?
