I think a carburetor would be borderline for me. If he wrote that it came from a running tractor I would still anticipate a rebuild kit. Any sheetmetal, items with glass, or most electrical parts have high risk. That would come primarily from shipping damage for which he is well known. I see Marty as pretty much untrainable so I don't expect his shipping skills will improve. Someday he may actually have a competent shipping department staffed by others.
I buy alot of Fast Hitch components. He has sent me at least six or seven 350-450-460-560 rock shafts. It seems like every tractor I work on now gets a front Fast Hitch so I need alot of misc FH components. I don't want to spend $300-$500 plus freight for a complete hitch, most of which I won't use. The bail (hoop, as he calls it) that I wanted will be used to make an anchor, outrigger, FH socket receiver for the front winch on my 660. I could bend something up but I like using factory parts when I can. It's also why I almost always use IH tie-rod hydraulic cylinders. I like keeping it in the family.
Marty's feedback rating is too high for him to lose his privileges. Most people aren't looking to start a fight, especially with someone who is so irrational. To be honest, I never thought my recent bidding and communication efforts with Marty would turn out the way they have. He made a tactical error by bringing in his account rep. They turned the tables on him.

The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
