Give then a chance to put things right. It may very well be a genuine mistake!

Guess we all have to be extra careful next time OP goes through the MM

The worse ones are those that put processor speed as something like 8ghz to try to trick the gullible into thinking they are getting something extremely fast when in fact all they are getting is a quadacore at 2ghz. Ebay needs to stamp down on things like these
Yep.

It's standard practice for retailers to try and resolve problems on ebay this way. Ebay encourage merchants to.
As for stock images, so what, they've sold 24 of them, they can't shoot and list each one individually. We sell refurbished items this way and never have a problem, if there's an issue we resolve it.
(I'm not he seller by the way, just sticking my oar in).

Yeah or that company that advertised its card as having 4GB when it was 3.5GB+0.5
To be honest, cases like that are difficult. The manufacturer would not allow retailers to advertise their products as such unless their hand was forced to. Obviously it would hurt sales a lot and a manufacturer could take action against a retailer if they think that the retailers advertisement contributed significantly to a loss in sales or reputation. Sure a 970 is 3.5+0.5gb card but it is not incorrect to describe it as a 4gb card.

OP moans because they sold incorrect item
OP moans because seller is saying they advertised incorrectly and are offering a refund+money for inconvenience
OP still moans
Can't win these days.

I would recommend the purchase of a stress-ball but if it doesn't do the job correctly the ordeal it would cause could be catastrophic.
As a long time ebay seller myself I would have apologised and offered the £50 but would NOT have asked for no negative feedback.
Can I ask you OP - what would you have thought and/or done then?
If a seller has lots of positive feedback I don't believe one negative does much harm. A seller can always leave a reply to a negative. I believe a polite and considered seller reply and turn a negative into a positive.

Sounds like the seller acted swiftly and responsibly and the OP refuse to acknowledge this and instead just be angry.
Perhaps buyers like this on eBay are more of a problem than the seller...

The OP came on here to moan about how crap eBay is and the ironic thing is that it is people like him that make eBay crap. Great job.
