Which FR5 interface did the seller compare with our confirmed fixture drawing?

Give the installer the full delivered labels, interface photographs and the exact drawing confirmed before purchase. Ask the seller to identify the delivered assembly and compare the actual mounting stack, not explain a suffix in isolation.
13pointsConfirmed assembly is C. Delivered paperwork says D and shows an extra spacer plate. Installer has both sets.
6pointsThen the plate is the concrete discrepancy to answer. Don't let the label discussion swallow it. Has the seller compared the tool position and fittings in those two complete assemblies?
9pointsThey admit D changes the tool position. They offer a revised fixture layout or the original C adapter set.
2pointsAsk for the original set's actual availability and replacement terms before spending your own time redesigning a fixture they confirmed before purchase
13pointsOriginal set is in stock according to dispatch. Seller agrees to replace D; I want the actual contents confirmed.
10pointsInclude the specified fasteners and fittings. A plate arriving on its own can leave the installer holding two incomplete arrangements and being asked to make one work. Nobody should have to guess which leftovers belong.
-7pointsWe once accepted a small adapter change in principle before anyone priced the fixture work it triggered. The change itself was manageable; the surprise was that everyone had assigned the design, machining and checking to somebody else. Sarah has a replacement option here. I'd finish comparing that before volunteering the toolroom for another job.
9pointsAnil, did that get spotted before parts were made, or when the bill came back?
9pointsBefore manufacture. Installer's comparison named the changed contacts, then the toolroom asked who was paying for them. Awkward meeting, useful question. We priced and accepted that separate change; I am not suggesting Sarah should accept hers.
6pointsReplacement set collected. Installer checked the marked contents list against C before dispatch; it includes fasteners and fittings.
14pointsWho pays replacement freight, return freight and the installer's comparison? Those belong in the agreement as well
2pointsSeller accepted both freight costs. Installer comparison is covered by our existing purchase scope. Written agreement predates collection.
7pointsHas the replacement actually arrived yet? The contents list sounds promising, but I'm waiting for your receiver's version.
13pointsKeep D identified while it waits for return. A loose extra plate can become the mysterious spare someone reaches for later, particularly if it ends up in the same tray as C.
2pointsArrived. Stores and installer checked C's components and references. D is kept together for return, not mixed into spares.
-2pointsHas the seller provided the agreed return instruction for D?
4pointsDoes the receiving check also identify the complete confirmed assembly drawing, Sarah? I want the next person to find C and its specified parts without reconstructing this from the delivery labels.
11pointsYes, drawing C and its parts list are on the receipt. Daniel, the return instruction is here too.
8pointsInstaller has now checked the replacement against our original fixture arrangement, including mounting and fittings. It matches C; no fixture relocation needed. Wrong set returned under the agreed collection. Supply mismatch closed, thanks all.
