Hahaha. A quick little update. I did not respond after his last email telling me he shipped it back.

He emailed me this today:

> Comment/ Question: Sorry I don’t have any problem with the price but I  
> bought the wrong book. However, I just sent it back to you.  
> The book is on the way to you. Please give me the refund. Thanks

I respond:

> I am not responsible for you buying the wrong book. Read before you buy it is Half.coms policy.

He responds:

> Comment/ Question: After I read the policy I have the right to return it  
> within 7 days.

I respond:

> Sorry Boss, Read the Policy:

> [Electronics, Cars, Fashion, Collectibles & More | eBay](http://pages.half.ebay.com/help/buyer/buyerorderprob.html)  
> Can I cancel an order that has already been placed?  
> At [Half.com](http://Half.com), purchases are made from other [Half.com](http://Half.com) members across the country. Once you place an order on [Half.com](http://Half.com), the seller will have 72 business hours to ship the item to you, and will often ship within hours of receiving your order.

> Due to the nature of this system, buyers cannot cancel orders once they are placed. This includes duplicate orders. All sales are final, except for those cases defined in the [Half.com](http://Half.com) Buyer Protection Policy.

> ALSO:

> [Electronics, Cars, Fashion, Collectibles & More | eBay](http://pages.half.ebay.com/help/seller/sellerorderprob.html)  
> I shipped an item, but the buyer has contacted me and wants to return it.  
> We require that buyers and sellers try to work out any order problems between themselves first, however once a buyer has placed an order, it cannot be cancelled without the seller’s authorization (except where noted above in “Does [Half.com](http://Half.com) have a policy regarding order problems?”).

> As I emailed you yesterday, I DO NOT OFFER REFUNDS. The transaction is over. You shipped it back BEFORE CONTACTING ME.

Hahaha.
