| yep - seller determines way of shipping (and communicates this to potential buyers before the end of the auction) and is liable to get the gear to the buyer in the shape as advertised. You can start a "conflict" at ebay, but I'd communicate your firm demands first to the seller. If he doesn't comply, you can start the "conflict" anyway. Ebay likes when you tried. Communicate only through ebay, and have transcripts of your messages sent to you by ebay.
buyer pays shipping and transfer cost (seller cannot deal with this, some buyers are living far away, do not want to use IBAN banktransfers (because they're paranoïd or just dickheads), and this requires more €£$
seller pays ebay (advertising cost)
you can make exceptions but that's how most deals I did went through.. just three surprises in a couple of years thumbsup
is it a simple potmeter? then 20 quid would be sufficient (low cost part & labour = 20 £
I remember the Akai having midi though... open it up and take a picture, and write down the part no#
it might be a midi encoder that broke - fix it now, later is for your own account.
