I know I am both going slightly off topic and making an assumption for this particular case, but I have never considered a seller's willingness to accept a return in exchange for a refund "making it right", particularly when there is misrepresenting involved, malicious or not.

We can certainly agree to disagree. I disagree with you.
If you aren't making mistakes you aren't doing enough. It's how mistakes are handled that makes the difference, to me. And to me it DOES matter if they are malicious and/or intentional mistakes. If they are intentional or malicious I have less patience for them.

Fair enough, but when I go through the process of tracking an auction, bidding, sending my money to someone else and anticipating a new addition to my collection only to be disappointed when it arrives, a mere refund/return doesn't make me less disappointed or willing to go back to that AH.

I agree that it sucks to waste our time on something and have to return it. As an addicted collector I will almost always go back, but be more careful, if there is something I truly want. Just being honest about it. To each their own though. One thing's for sure, there are plenty of places in the hobby to spend our money.

Especially when those available funds could have gone somewhere else.
