JMW 9'' Signature Tonearm

I wonder if someone out there would help clarify something for me? I recently received a 'new' JMW 9" Signature tonearm from one of the advertisers here. When it arrived there was a tone arm with setup guage, some allen keys etc. but no RCA Juction box, Damping fluid, Bearing assembly and tone arm plug (at the back of tonearm). I understood that all of these should come with a 'new' Signature tonearm, am I wrong and if so what should I have expected.

Thanks......... I don't want to start giving someone a hard time if the mistake was mine!!

You probably got a replacement tonearm "arm wand" only, which is to place on top of an existing bearing assembly, for easy cartridge swapping. Gotta make sure the seller advertised the sale as a complete tonearm set up not an accessory.

Hiho,
Thanks for coming back........ the advert was for a brand new JMW 9" Signature arm. and when I checked it seems that if you order this it comes with everything, including the RCA box etc. and the price advertised would not suggest that it was for the wand only. These are approx. $700.00 and I paid $995.00 + carraige

I would send it back for a complete refund and start again.
