Default OT- eBay situation help

I sold this Ruth for $551 on eBay. The buyer is now complaining that the card is missing half the back and there is a 4 mm chip on the top left front. Do the pictures in my listing not show that? Now he's opened a case and I'm just curious whether or not I'm going to win. I know they almost always side with the buyer, but this is just ridiculous.

I'm sure many of you have had things go over worse, but this is the first buyer that is really pissing me off... I sent him a message stating that the flaws that he's complaning about were clearly in the pictures. Do you guys think eBay will side with me? Here's the listing...

I would just go ahead and offer him a refund if he sends the card back in the same condition as which he received it. It's not worth the headache.

I agree with David. You offer a 7 day return. I would take it back from the tool. Sorry a clown ended up winning the card. Best of luck in your dilemma.

My thoughts exactly. The buyer is a moron who has buyer's remorse.

Best of luck in the future.

The thing is, I'm not sure I'd get the card back. Right after he won the auction, he said he accidentally bid on it and he took over a week to pay. might just be a case of buyer's remorse

I always laugh when I see the excuse that someone bid on something by accident. Thats like driving off in someone elses car by accident. Kinda funny. It looks like he bid on it by accident twice, according to the bid history. I would say, if you get the card back in the original condition, give the refund. Also, I would then contact the next highest bidder if their bid was close to the winning bid or just relist it. In my opinion, the price is fair for the grade.

The buyer has a feedback of over 600. Not some newbie. Sorry to hear you are having this problem. Good Luck. Unfortunately, I see eBay and the buyer winning this. Accept the card back and resell.

Tell him what a coincidence that you listed it by accident too and he's out of luck.

On a serious note, he will win if he files a dispute. Have him return it and when you receive it give a refund.

probably buyer's remorse after getting the card in hand...as he sees the 3rd bidder is about $100 less.

either way your scans are ok but not that detailed either. use imageevent or photobucket so you can host your own photos and blow up the scans as big as you like.
