I messaged the seller about it and they completely ignored me. The seller even went ahead and opened a claim on me. They would accept the item back, but I would eat the shipping costs. The item was $17 with $20 shipping; so that would mean I lose $20 returning the item.
The case ended up being closed on me since I didn't ship it back within the stated timeframe. During that time I was trying to contact the seller before I lost both my item and money.
I can probably escalate this some more, but the $20 isn't worth my time to contact eBay and deal with this seller. The seller has 8 negative feedback within the last month from doing the same thing to other buyers.
This reminded me why I pay a little more and shop on Amazon instead.
