What wigwam doesn't seem to see it that there are a 
whole bunch of REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS in life ( i.e. 
common sense assumptions ) and
one of them is the "or better" on an items condition.
i.e. if you sell something as excellent used and actually
deliver new to the buyer, there  is no harm to the buyer and that
was your perogative to send that. But it would NOT
be reasonable for a bidder buyer to bid/buy an excellent
used lens and then you send him a new one instead and
ASK FOR MORE MONEY because its new. That would be 
major problem and if you wanted new price you should
have advertised it as new if it indeed was new. The buyer
may not have wanted to pay the higher price for new and
used lower price was what he wanted and bought, not new at higher price.
