Conclusion: Scammer tried to false misrepresent a Pair of earbuds to me, in hope that I did not realise the switch of a clean with a gifted one, and as you can see, he has a pair of earbuds and a pair of gifted earbuds in his Inventory, for scamming purposes.

You are correct, you did everything correctly! And you even got evidence of an attempted scam! There is no reason to close the thread
As ForteSP said; The only thing that was unneeded was making a second thread as this slows down the reports. Thank you for the report, a SR Admin will look into it when he / she can.
