bait and switch

I received the head yesterday. Unfortunately, the valves, camshaft, lifters were not in the head! I submitted photos and waiting to hear back from the vendor. Like ebay, AliExpress hosts thousands and thousands of sellers. I hope this seller has enough invested in AliExpress sales to back this up and refund me. The photos and description certainly support my claim!

I guess my head porting work will be delayed

The title/description says camshaft and valves were to be included included:
"ZONGSHEN CB250F 250cc engine cylinder head camshaft valve CB250-F kayo T4 z1 nx6 CPS250 motorcycle"

The photos also clearly show the cam and valve train are installed in the head:

But this is what I received. I will not name the vendor. Mistakes happen. It could just be an employee mistake.
