I thought I would treat myself to a brand new set, he has 'more than 10' apparently. my originals are ok, no marks on the anodising but thought a new set would be good either to use or as 'spares' for the future.
Well they duly arrived after 5 weeks and on close inspection it should make for an interesting tuning session, any thoughts on how to tune these Jet Needles in the picture would be very welcome

Try to get money back!
It's ebay and to be fair to the seller he apologised profusely and asked if I wanted a further 3 needles or a full refund, which I took just to avoid further confusion, also he asked if I could help him identify the remaining needles,
So, If anyone has use for either a 4L6, EJ9 or 14EJ3 needle I'm your man

What a bastard. Put the seller details on here, so no-one else gets caught
I have bought from him before and the parts were good, 'Vintage Connection' is the user name, but as I said in my previous post you couldnt ask to deal with a nicer guy, his communication was excellent even over the New Year period, he asked me for help identifying the needles, gave an an instant refund, none of this send them back and we'll look into it type stuff.
I would still buy from him again.................but maybe not Jet Needles
Seems like he's made a genuine mistake and is now happy to help with sorting things out ...... it's nice that there still honest dealers out there...good result

Maybe he's not a bastard then
Although they are obviously different, so he should have spotted that, so just incompetent

Absolutely, I have 3 different needles and not one is correct, first one is a Yamaha DT100 or similar
