With deference to all of the hard line, "it's your responsibility" people, I would beg to differ with that attitude -

The Uniform Commercial Codes states in Article 2: "(1) Rejection of goods must be within a reasonable time after their delivery or tender."

You terminated the sale before delivery, that certainly more than meets that criteria.

Basically, you have the right to reject the goods if they do not meet your need, which, in this case - you did not know until you enquired further about them. Also, under federal law you have three days in which to accept or return the goods.

Tough luck on the seller's part - but, it was a mistake on his part to choose to NOT list, or clearly describe all of the pertinent details (label colors).

He of course can seek a remedy, which would be posting a negative rating, etc. Legally, he really has no recourse since you did not take posession of the goods.

If you would like to buy them to maintain "good will" that's your choice. There are hazards in being a seller as well as a buyer - buyer's remorse and return of goods is one of them. Having managed 3 retail businesses, and owning a custom manufacturing company, from my experience, it's not the one way street ("you offered to buy it, now pay up") reflected in many of the posts.

If it was, I wouldn't have had people returning things because they decided, "I just didn't need it." "It didn't do what I thought it would do..." "My husband said it was the wrong color." etc., etc., etc.

That's part of the price of offering things for sale - returns. Too bad but true, you can't force someone to buy something because it's inconvenient for you the seller.
