I tink its only unfair if you can show that your mechanic ordered the correct part and received the wrong one from LNE.

This is a crticial engine part, one that could do a great deal of damage if installed incorrectly or is somehow damaged. I don't see how LNE can guarantee the part to the next owner once it has been returned by a mechanic.

It's like trying to return an unrolled condom at the drugstore. "See it's dry that means its not been used, what do you mean you can't give me my money back?!? I demand to speak to the manager!"

Sorry to hear about your trouble. Carrrrrs arggg!

Sometime mishaps like this can be put aside for a day or two until tension goes down on each sides. Normally thing's gets back to normal when both side have come down. Give it 48hrs and deal with it when everybody got their cool-mood restored.

To add, don't feel bad for your mechanic, or for quitting him. He won't go out of business because of a bearing mate. Give a call to the maxspeed-motorsports guys if you are stuck with finding another mechanic to swap the bearing for you.

Best of luck to you and the boxster
