I'm sorry but you did not ask "politely," you threatened to make a complaint with paypal. In my opinion this was not a good way to start off the process.

I have been selling at eBay using systems like paypal and Billpoint for a number of years now and this would have set me off as well...even though I would probably have still returned your money...that's just the way I run my business.

However with that in mind we are speaking of a different kind of business, this person is selling software. I dare you to go to Best Buy buy any software package and return it telling them it wasn't what you expected.

You will not be able to return it because 99.9% of stores return policies are that once the package is opened you can only return it for the same product if the original is found to be defective.

This keeps people from being able to purchase what they wish, burn a copy of it and then getting their money back essentially stealing it.

How is this software owner supposed to know that you aren't using his product after he returns the money? He doesn't.

I rule in favor of the defendant
