chewed male thread on mixer shower

[GQuigley67]

I have a shower here with thread cross-threaded, my fault...... had to go buy another one but now I'm stuck with a shower I don't want/need. What should I do with it ? cost me £118 so lost all profit on job unless I can return shower or do something with it lol

Couldn't you tap it to make new threads and re use it

i was thinking of that yes but im not really going to need it considering its 110mm centres, maybe clean it up a bit and return it ?

just say it was like it when you opened it

 

[GQuigley67]

then they will give me a replacement which i dont want either haha i just want my money !! pretty much lost all profit on the bloody job

worst you could say is exchange it for a new one and ebay it???

is your merchants open on a saturday? if not then say you went to fit it on a saturday and it was faulty and you had to buy from elsewhere
