Dan Craft SigV 9'0" 5wt HELP!

Hey all. Funny question/request here...

I ordered a 905-3 from Dan, received it a few days ago, but didn't check the fit of the ferrules when I got it. Last night I took it out of the package and there's a nasty knock in the top ferrule. Loose-fitting midsection. Figured this out by swapping pieces with my other SigV 905-3 (different finish color, same rod). Normally I would just send it back for replacement...but...

Of course, my customer wants it by next week, it figures that THIS WEEK is the week that Dan is gone on a fishing trip...

So, I guess my request is...does anyone out there have an extra SigV 905-3 matte gray midsection? I have no problem paying for the section and shipping. Or maybe even for an entire blank if the price is right.

HELP!
:)

My email is scott_kinney@yahoo.com.
Thanks!

Hey Scott,
I've got one I can send you, best if I just send you the whole blank and you can send the one you have back to Dan when he returns and I'll settle with him. E-mail me your shipping address and I'll get it out in the next hour or so.

Dennis, Could her disbelief have anything to do with some of the company you keep?? But I still think you are a class act. Have fun this weekend, wish I was going to be there.

Scott, Check the e-mail address that is in your profile. It has spaces in it which makes it get rejected as invalid. E--mail addresses never have spaces in them

I don't think I have a profile. I input my email every time I post.

My email has an underscore in it-- scott_kinney@yahoo.com...sometimes that tricks people.
