Looking in from the outside presented with the facts, it seems like BlackMax is at fault, but there is an assumed risk when purchasing from other people you do not know.
The condition of the product was not clearly stated, and to me, saying that you do not have a camera for pictures is suspecious because it seems that you didn't want chillin to know about the markings on the SAFC. You are wrong here for doing that.
Then, BlackMax said when asked about installation if he did it himself, that,

If someone else installed it for you, why didn't someone else uninstall it for you? If someone else installed it, that implies that you didn't know how to do it, and therefore, you didn't know how to uninstall it properly which would lead one to believe that it was broken during the uninstall.
I agree with irish's remedy of splitting the cost of the item and chillin should receive $40 from BlackMax. The reason I say this is because again, there is an assumed risk when purchasing from fellow members, especially when you do not get to physically see the product first. There is no real way to prove either of you right, and thats why I think there should be a split. I highly doubt people will deal again with BlackMax unless there is some correction on his part.
