Is this repairable?

So basically, the tech at the shop called me over to be like 'hey look the sensor is cracked" and blamed it on the shop that had mounted it in the first place saynig that they had obviously broken it, and then glued it back together/taped it. It a complete lapse of judgement i believed him, i have know idea why. I didn't mention it after that, but i took the broken sensor and valve stem since he claimed that it could be fixed easily. i didn't tell the owner or anything. Should i go back there and make a fuss and say 'hey listen 2 weeks ago this happened and i want you to reimburse me for a replacement' or do i just forget about it and move on. i'm really frustrated. i have NO idea what came over me that i believed this BS story. obviously, if the last shop had broken it they would have told me, and if they had FIXED it it wouldn't be in two pieces again unless he had damaged it while dismounting the tire.

so, make a fuss? or leave it alone, and let it be a lesson, that will probably avoid me future heartache, since obvioulsy they are incompetent, and should clearly not be handling expensive wheels.
