how is the gearbox broken? May be able to salvage it instead of buying a reco'd one.

the shop you had the work carried out at should pay for a reco'd box + re-fitting. It was their fault as stated and you as the customer shouldn't be looking for prices.

... so you broke it, then a mobile mech came by and decided to put a broken gearbox back knowing he'll probably get in to shit by doing so.. is that what you are saying?
