Selling keyboards without the terminal

I sold a working luggable computer. The keys were a bit clicky but I put 
on the auction to try to thwart the keyboard collectors. I shipped it 
working, buyer claimed it wasn't working when arrived. Ended up having to 
refund on it. Ate $110 in shipping.

I'm super paranoid that the buyer was looking for certain keyboard and 
just fried it to claim insurance.

It definitely squashed any enthusiasm about selling on eBay, outside of 
all the work done to pack and ship and have some 14% of the sale price 
taken by eBay/PayPal.
