Well known scammer that seller, but he puts his get out clause at the end of the paragraph which states players memory capacity.

I don't know if you could succeed in a claim a gainst him.

Did you try to back up your firmware before you did the dead player recovery?

Wait until someone gives you some more info on the present status of your player.

I flashed mine as it had the hour glass showing also, and cloned a good player I have, and loaded the cloned players software into the player that was faulty and it seems to be working ok at the present.
