Ebay question.....

So I bought some stuff from a seller on Ebay.
They where not what was pictured and a totally different design.
I opened a case against him, and he is offering a full refund after I ship them back on my dime.

My question, do you think delivery confirmation would be enough to prove he received them back, or should I do "signature required"?

Any other suggestions?

    I don't get why the buyer needs to pick up any shipping but i guess that's the way they do it.

    The auction was "Free Shipping", so that may or may not have something to do with it.

    If the dispute is resolved by Ebay I don't believe the buyer has to pay shipping. If you reread the OP, the seller agreed to take the merchandise back after he opened a claim, Ebay hasn't resolved the claim yet. The seller is asking him to pay the return shipping, not Ebay.

    Don't close the dispute with Ebay until everything is a done deal.

    The key being the resolution center hasn't resolved the problem yet. The seller is working it out with the buyer before ebay makes a ruling which typically takes a couple weeks.

    The seller is offering full refund + original shipping which was free, so I guess I have no choice but to pay shipping, which should not be that much.
