The guy didn't get the chance to "not go through with it" he was messed about despite a winning bid, ebay isn't legally binding on either party especially if the goods are not 'as described' a legal term which gives a purchaser the right to reject a purchase if the goods are not as described.
I think the fella was just trying to do people on here a good turn.
