I still contend if the e-bay seller was decent he would
have accepted the remote back minus some charges.

BUT,

The fact that he didn't, is because as far as the listing
goes, he isn't wrong. He sold a REMOTE. Nothing else.
The fact that it requires software to program it isn't
his problem. I don't believe the seller tried to pass
himself off as a dealer of the product, he is just an
e-bayer that sells a variety of junk. If the software
was included, it would have been in the listing.
I think tiger is going to find himself answering a lot
of questions and wasting a lot of time dealing with this,
it doesn't sound like the seller is going to be very happy
having the charges reversed. And I would guess he will
file all this with both e-bay and paypal. (he has to if
he hopes to get his listing fees back)
You have cost him a sale, postage and now an amount of
his time to deal with this.
He has a right to be annoyed.
tiger should have talked with some of the people that
offered to help him with either programming or getting
him the software, it would have been easier to keep the
remote, after all, in the end you did get a very good
deal on it.
And now your talking about annoying another seller buy
returning the RF kit. Your not going to find yourself
having an easy time buying anything else on e-bay after
all this.

Who the hell are you? And all the rest of you?
Tiger got screwed if he cannot get the software, period.
This is not some 5 year old discontinued piece of "junk" as you call it. It is a brand new released remote. If this guy got his hands on it, he knew damn well.
If you ask me, he got what he (the seller) deserved.
Now, If Tiger can't program it to it's max. potential, then that is another story. But many CI's won't give you a totally custom remote for a basic programming fee and wait on you hand and foot to fix bugs and changes, so user software is almost mandatory especially to those who know how to use it.
The seller knew damn well and he didn't say squat!
