Crack Call

I recently sold an antique Catholic sick call box. In my picture you could see that the box was pretty beat up. I should have just said "Candlebra.Crappy box is a bonus".

Guy sends me this today:

I wanted to let you know the box was cracked. It was not mentioned in your description. I had hoped to refinish it. Now that will not be possible. i can send images if needed. Thank you.

Yup. Wood glue is never possible. Come on. I offered him a full refund if he returns it.

How much you want to bet he decides suddenly it's able to be refinished for a discount off his original price?

Update:
March 31. This guy surprised me. He told me no problem, he wanted to keep it but wanted to let me know what had happened in case I was unaware of the damage. I refunded him 25% anyway because he wasn't a dick.  My lack of recent assholes continues to shock and surprise me.
