More eBay woes.
Someone used the "buy it now" for some tube bender plans and now he says he didn't realise it was plans I was selling; he thought he
was buying an actual brand new bender (for AUD$24.95...yeah right!).
He asked two or three questions before purchasing, and now he wants his money back. Should I refund his dosh (less eBay's and PayPal's
fees), or should I hold him to the deal?
Cheers, Rorty.

if he asked questions and knew it was plans only then i'd want to hold him to it, if it was a geniune mistake then i'd probably offer a
refund, depends if you can be bothered with the agro and negative feedback for only $24.95!

They are set up for no-one but themselves. They are greedy bastards who cause plenty of grief to both sellers and buyers.

I suspect he knew exactly what he was getting, but just wants it for nothing.
If it's very clear that they are plans only and I'm sure it will be, then I'd tell him eff off.

Rorty, I've just seen the ad and read your feedback.
I'd risk the bad feedback....he'll look a total idiot compared to all the others who did realise that they were buying plans.
