Hi, i sold an item to a guy in another state and he's threatening fraud and trying to get me in trouble for, in my opinion, his own mistake and irresponsibility. I sold an item for which there are several models, and he assumed this was the high-end model. I did a quick search when I put this item up and mistakenly, posted a buy-it-now price for the higher end model thinking that was the one I had. So he did a buy-it-now and paid a lot more for it than he should have; however, he assumed because of the higher price that it was the higher model, isn't that his error? He NEVER asked me about it through email etc he just bought it, and sent me a money order.
The thing is, I've since spent the money moving in to a new place. Now he's threatening me with fraud. Am I in trouble on this deal?
Also, I've heard that to sue, you have to file against a person in his state. However, for fraud would the guy have to actually come here, or is that different since it's criminal?
