Here is the item I bought from this seller: http://www.ek9.org/forum/sale/55076-s80-4-7fd-s4c-4th-5th.html
I tried to reach a solution with the seller, but without success.
Here is the photos of "absolutely perfect" condition gearbox which I bought from Weasel and I received it 2 days ago.

I will start a thread with more detailed information, photos and PM messages about this case.
It looks like the gearbox was standing without oil for a long time, there are dust and dirt on the hubs and gears, the magnetic part which attracts metal particles are freshly cleaned, 3rd, 4th and 5th gear hubs/sleeves and synchros are worn, 1 bearring is loud as f***, etc.
You will see how this "perfect" gearbox looks from outside (oil and dirt everywhere) and I even don't see if it was ever painted as per description (I am not 100% sure about painting). So a lot of wrong information. I believe the seller thought he can cheat a guy from abroad, so took an old damaged gearbox from the shelf and sent it to me? I don't have any other ideas how to call such situation.
