Thanks John for this exploding view! :-)

The ad mentioned that the viewer works:  "I do not have any stereo 
photos to test it with but the light does work."  Jim plugged it in and 
almost injured himself.  Jim is questioning the fact that the viewer
works as stated, and said: "In any case, not only does the light NOT work, 
but the viewer is dangerously defective."  The seller then questions that 
Jim is saying the truth about what happened.  

IMO, the seller handled this very poorly by refusing to "negotiate" and, 
given the number of successful transactions in eBay, he has plenty of room 
and eBay-earned income to do so.  The least he could do would be to take
the viewer back and cancel the transaction.  I understand that Jim's reply
was a bit strong but just consider what he went through!

What missing facts are you referring to?  I don't see any.
