I am going to assume that the regulator you got from this guy is the regulator you are going to be stuck with. You can pursue any avenue you like with the seller, but I want to help you concentrate on the regulator.
If you will send it to me, I will make sure that it is properly serviced and working like a charm. All said and done, it is a fine regulator and you will absolutely love the way it performs.
Some of your friends know me and know my work. Give me a call at (800) 601-3483. Thanks.
