Umm, people, the guy wasn't being stupid. The photo was listed in the console category, not in some photo category, in which case it's reasonable to expect that a product of such price is actually the console and not just a photo. eBay is full of erroneous product listings, and often you just have to guess what information is correct. Of course the smart thing would be to ask and not assume, but in this case, it seems to have been pretty safe to assume it was the actual console. And either way, the seller wasn't up to anything good, no matter how you try to spin it.

The only thing I'm not liking about this too much is the fact that he got not only a refund but also a free console.

He even admitted he noticed that it said it was a photo of one. He was stupid

Now where did I say he didn't notice it? I'm fully aware he did notice it, thank you. I'm saying he still had every reason to expect it was the real thing and not the photo because of the price and category of the product. You don't simply list a photo in the console category and price it at the price of a console and expect people to believe it's a photo. It's reasonable to expect that the word 'photo' in the title is an error unless it's repeatedly stated in the description as well. Heck, for all you know, the word 'photo' in the title could indicate that there's photos of the product in the description.

Are you seriously going to try and defend this guy? His gigantic stupidity is pretty obvious.
