No need to start with threats or attempting to throw some kind of internet weight around. You have no reason to assume he won't work with you.

Also, companies who make parts for the original manufacturer, say Mercedes, often won't make a mold with and and without the 'genuine' part number. So they manufacturer grinds off the part number for parts sold in their own packaging. What you're assuming is foul play, may actually be an indication you were sold a genuine part.

Why do we jump to negative conclusions so quickly.
I agree.
For sure you need to keep what ever anger, frustration and so on out of your correspondence. Keep everything factual and unemotional and un-dramatic.

Some eBay sellers don't know what they are selling. I bought some advertised as 100% cotton (which is what I wanted) bandannas and when I got them they were all polyester or something similar.

The Seller told me the company he bought them from told him they were 100% Cotton.

I don't know if that was the truth or not. But, it is the seller that has to take responsibility for his Ad.
