Sounds like a clear case of "not as described" which ebay supports the buyer most every time. The only inconvenience you should incur is the time and effort it takes you to send it back. Return shipping should be the seller's responsibility. He'd be wise to return a portion, enough to make you feel good doing the repairs.
As a seller, I've been dinged a couple times on much less and have learned to NOT sell any item on ebay anything that could be interpreted as "not as described".
