i recently sold a reel to a buyer in Japan ,now the reel itself was 10/10 with a small rust mark on the reel seat ,all things considerd in good nick for a reel of 32 years old,problems is i failed to list the defect and the buyer aint non too happy,ive offerd the bloke a refund less postage upon return of the reel,but as hes japanese he wants a fight to the death in court no less ,to protect his honour i imagine,now as far as i can see ive acted within e-bay guidelines but any advice from you lads who deal alot would be welcome,ive put the matter in the hands of the square trade resolution dept and as yet have heard nowt ,having read through the guidelines im not sure he should even get a refund as hes took the reel to bits as a photograph shows that he sent me to show the rust mark

one thing for sure i wont be dealing overseas again
 
Having worked with the Japanese for some years now the best thing you can do mate is invite him over to settle the matter ,if he says he can\'t then simply offer to post him a sword which he can then fall on and therefor regain his honour and saving you any more hassle ,hope this helps Bri.......

bri i would just forget about it m8 whats the worse he can do neg you if he paid through paypal id expected a chargeback or you could tell him if he wants a war you will send a yank bomber over
 
as Ray says Forget it,let Ebay sort it out,if he leaves you a Negative Ebay might remove it for you,not sure how it works though but I have seen Neg\'s removed by mutual consent,he might be pulling a fast one as well
