return of meldew coat

[weps1020]

I purchased a used wax coat on ebay, description was in good condition.  It arrived smelling of mould & had meldew stains on it & oil & paint.  I asked for a full refund including postage.  Seller replied  "If you send me your email address I will forward you a label to return the item. On receipt of the item we will issue you with a refund."

Is this a safe option or is it a scam to get the goods with no refund issued once they recieve the coat?

Ebay can't help if you go down the DIY route and something goes wrong. So read Ebay's Money Back Guarantee (on every listing, and in various other places across the site) to learn how to return a Not As Described item to get your money back for sure.
