Exactly. I doubt this is a case of actual fake poster paranoia. There
are two much more likely reasons this idiot pulled this stunt:
1) He simply didn't like the posters once he had them in his hands and
so decided to claim they were "fake" as the easiest way to get his money
back. I think this is most likely.
2) He didn't look closely enough at your auction's pictures and so
thought he was getting the regular issue poster of these films instead
of the military versions. Hard to believe, except we have to remember
that people regularly buy movie posters on Ebay thinking they are
actually ordering a DVD of the film and are upset when a poster arrives
in the mail instead.
But, as Andy said, to protect yourself definitely tell him you are
refunding the money because he was not happy with his purchase, even
though you know for certain the items you sold him are genuine originals
and not fakes.

If it was me I would refund and send him a message saying you are
refunding due to him not being happy and that the refund does not mean
you are admitting they are fake. Thne I would relist them and put it
down to a bad experience.

Hi everyone,
I had an eBay session closing two weeks ago.
Today, I received back a package from one of the winners.
He sent back the following two posters:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350255178283&ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT
<http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350255178283&ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT>
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350255167484&ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT
<http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350255167484&ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT>
with just a brief note instructing me to refund him because the
posters are fake.
Now, first of all, who will go to the extent to make a fake out of a
military style A&C ?
The posters are NOT linen backed, have fold wear and separation and
are, as anybody can see 100% original.
How would you deal with this person ?
Thank you for your input.
