Lee,

Based on what you said, the seller did nothing wrong. Considering graded ex/mt T206 cards sell for $125 each didn't you think something was wrong here when you got 4 for that price? He said he is giving you a complete refund. Take it and call it a lesson learned.

Consider your grading fees your punishment for missing the part about them being short in the description. Besides, you can't expect a seller to refund your grading fees, that isn't part of the auction and was your choice to send them in.

Lesson for any younger/new collectors out there:

Don't fool yourself, people are selling Baseball cards for one reason - to make money - and that is fine. BUT, if someone is selling a card, especially a high end card, and mentions that card is short they KNOW that will hurt the final price so they MUST be mentioning the size for a reason. This holds true for the one time eBay seller AND well known names in the hobby.
