If a seller lists both a proof set and a quarter proof set, I expect to receive both complete sets (15 coins total), not half a proof set (no quarters) plus a quarter proof set. I agree that the issue is a misunderstanding caused by an unclear auction listing, but I can't really see why I should bear any cost when the seller was unclear. paying for my shipping would be the cost of education for the seller in this case. My issue is not the money I paid. It's more a question of holding people accountable for their mistakes.
