That would have been an option, but never materialized. It ended up that I shipped the frame & fork back to him.

It ended up the seller refunded my total initial fee and payed for shipping back. The seller got sparkling clean frame and fork set back! I'm guessing he's squaring up with his LBS since he states the receipt states a "60cm" frame.
Thanks for everyone's help on this.
