And the nice thing to do would be repaying the seller.

Nasty shoe. :(


Anyway, if it was something as simple as reseating the controller board to fix it, I would feel like I should pay the seller for it, if it were me. But obviously it's your transaction with the seller, and that's between the two of you.

Glad you like your Model M, though.

So... you bought a keyboard for $50, thought it was broken, got a refund, kept the keyboard (because it’s too much of a pain to ship back and forth for the seller to want a potentially broken one back), then figured out it wasn’t actually broken, and now are bragging about how lucky you are now that you got a “free” $50 item at the seller’s expense. Is that right?

But anyone who criticizes this whole arrangement is trying to “parent” you, when they should be getting excited?

Gotta say, I’m not too impressed.

On the upside, you have a promising career ahead of you as an investment banker.
