I can see how you misinterpreted what I meant because I didn't express it very well. When I said "it doesn't matter", what I meant to say was "it doesn't even matter if the seller had the correct picture up, she should return your money anyway". Of course it matters if the seller puts up fraudulent pictures and she shouldn't get a pass for that. FRANC

Sure it arrived damaged, sure the seller should return Rich's money, but to give the seller a pass for the high possibility that they were patently dishonest and doctored or 'massaged' their Ebay images to fraudulently present the poster in a better condition than it was, does matter. If they were merely guilty of horrific packaging, that's likely carelessness and negligence. But if that IS the same poster and the images were doctored not to show the massive tear, then that shows some pre-meditation, and a cognizance that the poor condition of the poster would not bring a high price, ergo their motive to doctor the pics. Franc, I doubt you were suggesting that doctoring images is an acceptable practice as long as the seller refunds an unhappy buyer's purchase price. For what would follow, as may be Rich's experience in this case, if the seller is commonly fraudulent and then they make Rich wait weeks for a refund, that, in itself is no evidence of A**holiness, for this Seller is only being consistent and clearly had class with a capital 'A' to begin with.
