You have chosen not to as in your opinion the card is still a "good deal". That decision makes feedback a tiny bit tricky as you haven't asked anything more of the seller (which as above you would clearly be entitled to), just disappointed the card wasn't properly described.
1) I would reconsider returning it - if you wouldn't have bought it in the first place if it were properly described, why own it now?
2) If not, I would email the seller and explain that the only feedback you would be comfortable leaving would be neutral due to the inaccurate description and alternatively are open to not leaving feedback if he would rather not have the neutral. This at least may get him thinking about his descriptions in the future.

Honestly, yes, I probably should return it, but I've just gotten tired of having to deal with people's reactions. Turns out there are a lot of jerks out there - one seller became abusive when I told him I was returning a counterfeit card, called me a scammer and all kinds of profane insults. Another seller refused to take back a card that was obviously trimmed (and he clearly knew it). A third sent a different card that was in far worse shape than the one in the listing photo, and tried to deny it. After a while it just wears you down, you know? I'm a lawyer, I have enough conflict in my work life - I don't need more because of a hobby! Hobbies are supposed to be fun!
One solution, of course, is just to pay the premium for a trustworthy seller (such as yourself), but when you tack on that premium plus the fact that I live in the city with the highest combined state/county/metro sales tax in the country, with the overall market insanity - it gets to be a lot.
