Well you arent explaining things properly, but it sounds like the firmware didnt flash properly.
If you bought from ebay you can raise a claim saying the product is faulty, the seller will get in touch with you quickly then. And if they dont then ebay will give you a full refund and you keep the printer
Do the above first, but most likely reflashing the firmware may help.

If you flash firmware before you go to ebay then they will not help you.

That's why I said contact ebay first, assuming they bought from ebay, not seen CTCs sold anywhere else.

Yeah CTC arent the type of printers which will give you great prints right off the bat.
You need to get them set up, upgraded and calibrated yourself, and this could require some work.

In terms of bang per buck they are right up there though with the Wanhao I3 metal.
Once they are set p and the problems sorted they are good printers
Printer will print perfect...
