Stealing? The seller is knowingly selling cheap knockoffs, fakes, counterfeits. What do you call that? He refunded your money and you want to keep/smash the item...That is stealing..Until you can verify the authenticity by a professional it is not your decision to dispose of this...
The only reason I got a refund is because he knows and I know that these are fakes. He put some up after I bid on this one with buy now prices for less than half of the real, genuine thing. If these were genuine and I was unhappy with it, I'd ask the seller if I could return them for a refund. Since their not genuine, I don't want him ripping off someone else and just assumed they're garbage. As I stated earlier, I'm sure you are correct about it being fake, and yes it stinks to send it back to them. I'm sure that is EXACTLY why they refunded your money. I agree, I don't want to see sellers ripping off buyers either...But, you are not following protocol...If ebay allowed you, the buyer to make the "call", the issues regarding this on ebay would be the demise of ebay....
NOT saying you are doing this, but here is an example..
I buy a Coach bag on ebay...I receive it and decide to say it is fake although it is authentic...Ebay takes my word, refunds my money, and tells me to "destroy it"...Ya hoo! I just got my money back and I get to keep an authentic bag...
This scenario is why ebay has rules in place..You are not following the rules...Why should we take the word of the buyer that an item is fake....KWIM???
