Yeah the seller has a responsibility to list accurately but the buyer has an even biiger responsibility to do the homework before bidding. Based on the pictures and the descriptions - I would have had to ask the seller some questions before I placed a bid - the fact that the seller admits to not knowing trains - only increases the need to ask questions. Ebay is buyer beware - it is your responsibility to do the research. Misrepresentation is an entirely different thing - although it appears these items are not what I consider mint (although the seller says the "trains are mint" and then later says the "bodies are mint") - I don't think they were terribly misrepresented. I think that between the pictures and the descriptions there were more than enough red flags that should have prompted further inverstigation. In the end it sounds like the vendor is willing to work with you - I* would probably pay no more than $15-$20 for the whole lot - including shipping. Good Luck
