Quite frankly....I don't allow Ebay sellers to get away with anything even close to this!
Im a real azz when it comes to stuff like this on Ebay. Send him a message WITH the photo.
Tell him you want to rectify this as soon as possible and mention that you don't want to leave bad feedback.
Unless this is some junk seller that doesn't know "it" from a hole in the ground they will quickly treat you right.
You know your not at all happy with it so why try and talk yourself into it ?
Your covered by Ebay.....and your covered by PayPal........GO get it done !
Remember....ITS NOT AS DESCRIBED ! If the seller gives you any grief at all....OPEN A CLAIM.....you may end up with the Lens AND your $$$ if the seller gets shazzammy with you.....Ebay is always on the side of the Buyer.

+1 on this....it isn't as described. It matters not if the seller doesn't accept returns....EBAY protects its buyers and craps on its sellers...YOUR COVERED ! Open a claim and dispute it as NOT AS DESCRIBED....and get your $$$ back !
Im a Buyer and seller on Ebay for 11 years.....believe me....YOU will Win !
If the buyer DOENT accept returns.....that is HIS PROBLEM.......Ebay will refund your $$$ anyway without even returning it......if he does accept returns....use tracking with USPS priority and ship it back..... You will be out the return shipping but that's a small price to pay rather than being stuck with a Lens you Don't really Like because of the condition not disclosed to you.
Feel No remorse for any excuses from the seller.....its something that if it was an honest mistake he will learn from for future sales and be more carefull......Ive been there myself and just had to eat it because I didn't know what I was doing. He needs to Eat it Now.....its HIS mistake....NOT yours.......... OPEN A CLAIM !
