I heard back from the turntable factory and they agreed that the table is to inexpensive to warrant repair, so they don't mess with it. He also felt you had an issue with the seller based on improper packing.
Sorry but it sounds like a new table is in order. If you get one from ebay, check to see if this is a one time table seller, or someone who sells components of this sort regularly. Communicate to the seller that you want it packed like its the end of the world, and insure it. All parts of the table must be secured and all components should be wrapped in 4 inches of bubble wrap, boxed, foam around that box for about 4 more inches, then another box. Cover packed seperatly inside. Tell seller you will accept nothing else, before auction is complete. Buy from sellers who care about there rating, and check their feedback.
