The seller went to so much effort to package the thing but I'm almost convinced she didn't bother powering on to see if it was worth her time and my money. I'm pissed but also completely miffed at the situation. Will be having words...

Gonna be a waiting game...
The only positive is that I now know I can run this size screen and keep the cab width under 820 mm (standard door frame width).
