Wow, this edition of Mouse Print sure garnered a lot of responses, but I can see why. I'm also an Ebay seller...low volume, but nevertheless I enjoy the selling and buying process on Ebay. I buy more than I sell, and thankfully I've never needed to return anything.

Thanks to CMH for all his comments. I kinda disagree with the one wherein he states, "in my mind it is unreasonable not to offer returns when people are buying things without seeing them in person." I'll provide my favorite reply to CMH: it depends. I never offer returns on electronic components. For example, a buyer can install it, fry it, and then attempt to return it because it didn't work. Try and return an opened or previously installed electrical component to an auto parts store. Or another reader gave a good example of selling a brand new item that's sealed/shrink wrapped, only to have the buyer return it for reasons other than broken or not meeting the seller's description. You're now stuck with a used (or "new: other") item. I recently sold a new circuit board, and there's no way I'd offer a return policy. As others have mentioned, the buyer is covered anyway, if there's been any example of misrepresentation, incorrect description, wrong specs, broken/non-functioning, and so on.
