Return it. Ask for a refund for a broken product.

Seller should be responsible (or their designated shipping company if it has insurance) regarding your product. If you paid through e-bay or paypal you can write up a claim.

They have to be really stupid to ship without insurance. It shouldn't be an issue other then more waiting.

Then this happened =/ anyways im hoping i can catch a little break.. wish i couldve done everything this week..Do you guys know if i could get another tail light if i have to ship them both back or something?

It depends on the seller. Did you buy through Ebay or was this a private seller?

You would ONLY ship back if the seller asks you too. Other wise you'll have to file a claim. (ebay)

If you bought it from a private seller you'll have to contact paypal and tell them the seller sent you a broken item. Paypal should refund your money back. Of course within reason.

In that case.. I would contact the seller. lol

If it doesn't work out then.. well.. at that point there's not much left you can really do. :/

Well, send him a message first and if he doesn't respond in 2-3 days open up a claim on paypal.
