dont post it back until you are advised by ebay
if he doesnt play ball you open a case against him, the date you can do this should have been stated when you requested a refund.
He has no chance
as long as you state its broken all will be paid and all monies you paid out will be refunded
he is obviously a twat
I had an ebay win sent wrapped in a bit of loose cardboard, a bin bag round that and a plastic flower pot over the headstock, all vaguely taped together.
What was it?
A 1978 US Precision bass I'd paid nearly a grand for (no case).
And after that, open a dispute with Paypal about the £20 he cheated you out of by not using it to pay for next day delivery if Ebay don't fully refund you on that as well.
It can be done, you just need to be patient and follow all the terms and conditions to the letter, and you will end up only losing your time. I've had a couple of run-ins with sellers who don't think the rules apply to them, and had to be made to find out the hard way that they do.
Ebay can be a nightmare for private sellers now, if you run into a bad buyer - but at least when you're the buyer and the seller is the problem, they're almost always on your side.

At least you got a flowerpot! Someone sent me an Epi Dot wrapped in brown paper. No gig bag, no cardboard, no gardening equipment. I could see the neck flapping about inside as the courier brought it to me.
If so, “destroy” means carefully removing any useful parts - especially valves and speakers, also knobs, handles, feet, jack nuts and anything else you may need one day - and *then* take a pic of yourself throwing the rest into the tip.
