I see your point, but...

...what was the motive of the seller for refusing to add the statement to his add? How would it have hurt him to do so? Is it possible that he thought there would be less people who would bid, or that some may not bid as much if they knew there was no warranty? If so, is that any different from not mentioning a defect with the equipment?

From the Mac side, perhaps they were concerned that someone might buy it assuming that the Mac warranty would be good and then be pissed at Mac when it was not. They could even sue Mac. In this litiguous society, it wouldn't surprise me. Granted, the chances of that happening are remote, but Lawyers are paid to protect their clients against such remote possibilities.

Had he responded in a civil manner stating his case, I doubt he would be in the position he's in. If he had responded calmly and asked why the lawyer was making the request, most likely, he either would have understood the position and added the disclaimer, or been able to reassure the lawyer that his concerns were not warranted.

As it is, he left no opportunity for any discussion. he called the Lawyers bluff and lost. Now all he has left is to try and defame Mac on internet forums. He may feel better because others agree with him, but that won't make it any easier to sell his amps.
