I have, numerous times already. He keeps coming up with this so-called "implied warranty" he linked to on wikipedia. I'm telling you, the guy's elevator doesn't go to the top floor. When I get some time, I'll post up screenshots of all our correspondence because it's almost comical. I'm still waiting to see if he gets ebay or paypal involved. He usually goes 3 or 4 days between contacting me with his next rant.

And btw, to Mike A, I feel like I should continually respond because if he does finally file a complaint, I don't want him to be able to say I just ignored him.

$13, dude.  $13.

Was the COA shrink wrapped with the M$ hologram, or was it a sticker on a piece of paper?  If it was shrink wrapped OEM, then you are OK.  If it was a sticker attached to a piece of paper, you could have problems.  Either way, best that you keep good communication with the buyer, and if he wants a refund, then I would oblige him.  I remember a news story, where a guy sold a printer on craigslist for $40 and he got into a real problem with a lawsuit happy guy back east(ern European).

When I see ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- like this, it makes me think twice before I sell anything online.

And your point? If you mean I should just refund him because it's only $13, then no. Why should I be the one who gets shafted just because some imbecile doesn't take the time to read the description. He's already agreed he received everything he purchased (it's been 2+ weeks now since he actually received it) and the only thing he's mad about is something that was never agreed to be included in the first place.

eBay only requires that COA's be sold with a piece of PC hardware, hence the 1gb stick of RAM. Other than that, it was sold as-is with no warranties. He's told me he's gonna get eBay involved now for over a week, so I don't know if the guy is just fishing for a partial refund or what. 

Btw, interesting read. The real difference between what I sold and that, is that I didn't sell anything that was "broken". My buyer claims I should have known how/where to obtain the software when in fact the software was never part of the auction.
