Well. That was an interesting phone call with eBay. According to eBay, if the seller mails the wrong item, if they mail a defective item, and if the seller mails out an item they damage, the buyer has to pay to return the item.
If you buy an item, and they mail you a brick, you have to pay to mail the brick back.
That certainly explains why the seller wouldn't try to replace what they damaged, they don't have to.
Fortunately, this seller, and receiving something a seller damaged is a rarity for me.

Yup, that's the way that it works with eBay. I was once shipped an empty box, eBay and Paypal would do nothing for me unless I shipped the empty box back at my own expense. The clueless seller bought the item at a yard sale and didn't even look inside before listing and selling it. Since I'm in Canada and the seller was in the US, it was not at all worthwhile to return it, so I got ripped off. Completely ridiculous policy.
If I understand eBay correctly, I ship the item back, and eBay issues the refund? The seller gets of without any penalty, except for negative feedback?

No, the seller issues the refund after they receive the item back from you. eBay will not pay for anything, regardless of what happens.
Take care,

Thanks for the info.
It looks as if I'm still pissed about getting a damaged face plate.
I keep tryin to talk myself out of sending them a brick with a picture of the damaged face plate on it.
Course, I could drop the unit an few times and then mail it back. But, I can't see me damaging any old gear for spite.
Maybe mail the unit with some Javalina crap inside of it with the screws JB welded in place?

My spiteful self reasons that if they don't even have to send what they advertised, I don't have to send back what they sent.
