barrysloateI disagree with the opinions that this is an all or nothing matter- that Ryan should either keep the photo for what he paid or return it for a full refund.
If a few thousand dollar refund would make Ryan feel like he came out whole, and Sotheby's likewise agrees that that is the most logical route, then the matter is solved.
I don't see why a compromise can't be the answer to this, if it makes both sides happy.
