used when promised new

I ordered .5m pair of Cardas Golden Reference interconnects from an Audiogoner We negotiated through email and came up with the price of $375 NEW. Well, I got the cables, timely, but they are not new. They are in absolutely fabulous condition, but they are definitely not new. They were also packaged poorly with no Cardas literature. No nothing. I emailed my disappointment, and have not gotton a response yet. This is going to be my first time giving a negative response on "feedback." Isn't this appropriate, even if amends are made. Am I being fair? Is there, really, any reason to hear an explanation? Even if he makes good $$wise, he still lied to me. I would appreciate feedback from you guys.
thanks in advance,

I'm not here to come out as the bad guy. Through email he said very clearly that they were new. His apology, just recieved, indicated he made a mistake and sent me demo rather than NEW. Clear? His ad had nothing to do with my "misunderstanding." It was a verbal NEW.
peace..

It's done. Negative feedback. I have to be fair to other Audiophools, regardless of how I feel. It's the principle. I'm letting go now. Won't by from John anymore. You're on your own. I owe you guys the truth...You'll do the right thing...

I wish to thank my fellow audiophools for their insights. I over reacted and learned a valuable lesson at another audiopool's exspense. I could (should) have handled this, too, via email. I didn't get a response quickly enough, and subsequently over reacted. I want to offer a formal apology to my fellow audiophools. I took giving negative feedback, too lightly, and I shouldn't have. You've helped me see the light.
peace,

I asked the Audiogon Brass to change the feedback (keeping the copy the same) from negative to neutral. They did....
