Putting the HARD WORD

With Kevin's encouragement, I just sent this to the seller on eBay:
I would like a partial refund on the electric scooter I paid for. After checking with the distributors I found it needs a new controller to run properly and checking the framework we saw it was riddled with rust. Also, the listing on eBay included a manual and a 'Rear wheel locked alarmed security device'.
I know you were going to post the manual, but the security device is also missing. This isn't the lock on the back tyre, it's a separate cable that comes with the bike. I have been very ill for over the last week and a half, or I would have responded earlier on this. With a flat back tyre and a battery with low charge, it was impossible to test at the time. The page for it reads "excellent condition", which is why I bid on it in the first place.
I would like a refund of $250 (I am open to negotiation on this) which will cover the cost of repairs on the bike to bring it near to the condition as advertised, otherwise I'll need to pursue other avenues to remedy the situation.
We'll see what happens.

Hope your mouth is OK.
