What are the rest of the details?
It sounds as though you had a specific incident, that you want us
to comment about, without telling us anything about what happened.
Were there any phrase like "great condition" that would cause
careless readers to ignore the "for parts"?
Was "for parts" mentioned ANYWHERE in the DESCRIPTION? Or are you
expecting people to pay attention to the "Condition:" field in the
"Item Specifics" data box?
Is your question rhetorical??!?
