You bought 4 lights based on what the seller said they were and not a single one of them turned out to be what was promised. You should be mad because you got ripped off! An honest seller would take them back if it was an actual mistake or refund you an appropriate amount in you want to keep them. Refusing to do so shows the person knew what he was selling you all along.

Claims he's using the money just to pay his mortgage and that he can't do anything because he has no money. I'm not an insensitive guy but does that make it ok to steal from my family to help yours?

No, not at all.

Notify a mod on this site so they can remove this seller from canreef so that more people aren't disceived by this seller.

The seller has contacted me since posting this and we've worked out a compromise. If he follows through then I'm going to leave it be since I'm a reasonable person. Stay tuned...

Been following this thread all day and I'm glad it appears to have been resolved equitably. Will continue to look for updates so that we will see if things work out and promises made are followed through.

Good for you to maintain your cool over what could be an expensive and nasty situation. PROPs my friend (does anyone even still say this?)

Canreef staff want to remind everyone that it is your responsibility to do your homework when buying items listed here in the buy and sell. Now I don't know any of the circumstances in this case (because none of the parties seemed to have PM'ed any staff) but if you are planning on purchasing a couple thousand dollars of equipment from out of province, it might be a good idea to get photos, serial numbers, etc, before any commitments are made. Both parties in this case are outstanding members and no action will be taken. I am glad to hear that this is trying to be resolved... privately.
