If it has been less than 45 days (as new as these are it is likely) Steve will give you your money back.
Rather than sell it at a loss because its used, you should send it back to Steve for a refund. Steve's Customer service is better than any business I have seen in any industry.
That is awfully nice of you Joe. He doesn't have the stones with it from what I read so I don't know if he's keeping them or if he ordered the fixture only, without the stones.
For what it is worth, I purchased the Lindsay Sharpening System about a month ago
and found it to be an excellent product. I use it every day and wouldn't consider
selling it.
