This is really bizarre, I emailed him when he was asking about people taking the scratch/dent cases, and he emailed back several times, with pictures, a couple options of scratched cases, and I chose one. He provided an invoice for the remainder of the payment, I paid it, and he shipped out promptly on July 9th, I and received it just a few days later in NV. I received the case, the PCB, diodes, stabs, resistors all in working order (as pictured previously in this thread). I have no idea what the heck is going on.
