Refund is being issued in FULL AMOUNT NO QUESTIONS ASKED because not only was I unaware of the damage, I was the middleman here and my buddy has no problem issuing a refund since he was also unaware of the damage. And I'm pretty sure I have plenty of feedback to not let this effect future sales. ANy other smartass comments can be kept to yourself. Thanks!

Well, the fact that you came in here, told us what happened and handled the situation properly, I am giving you a formal apology. These douchebag sellers on here need to follow your example. Own up and make it right. Props to you man for being a stand up guy. Your buddy too....

And that, sir, is what makes you a good seller. If the customer is honestly dissatisfied with the item, give them their money back. Everyone would want the same thing to happen if the roles were reversed. 'nough said!

Never be the middleman it puts your reputation on the line. Even for a friend. Friends and family let you down from time to time.

Thanks fellas! I mean it would be different if we were trying to scam someone, but that is never the case with anything I sale. Even if it wasn't showing signs of pitting and he wasn't 100% satisfied a refund would be issued regardless.
