You expect them to whip out their iPhone and find the perfect lighting to show everything? That's just unrealistic.

Hold the seller accountable and let them re-do things the right way. What a good learning experience it will be for them.

Regarding the part highlighted in bold...

Isn't that pretty much synonymous with the buyer having the final say?

Make them re-do it = buyer having initial say (since they know from the start)
