The seller notified me, after I paid for the teacup, that it was chipped and asked if I still wanted it or did I want a refund. One day later I replied that I would like a photo of the damage to assess and decide. Seller replied that he ASSUMED I would not want it and tossed it out. He tossed out my property. I had bought and paid for it. How ridiculous to not wait for my response. Makes me wonder if his true reason is that there was no bidding activity other than my own. I am VERY upset.
