You would need to use their account - and then change the password.
Item description lists contents (original & BC games/guides) and notes that it's in excellent condition, that is all. It's listed as used, but no mention of this invalidating it for a new account or anything of the sort. If it comes down to it, I'll argue that it was his responsibility to include that information or somewhat else indicating that the pack is for replacement purposes only and doesn't entitle you to the license.
Well obviously he was just seling the CE items then.
If it was including key he will be selling AS AN ACCOUNT considering that is says it has been used.
You cannot buy used WoW that has unused key simply because if they've used it, they registered the key ( Unless they only opened it to browse manual ???? which would make no sense ) and if they would like to sell it along with the key - they will not be advertising as CE box BUT as account as whole for sale.
A bit your fault there I'd say for buying without thinking or reading properly but you can still try, maybe they will agree to take it back but you might need to cover the auction cost / shipping fee yourself.
I see no reason why you could argue about it as false advertising, obviously if it's been used then the key has been used and he needs to sell the whole account as it is.

Im sure if we were talking about following ebay regulations to the letter then you would not be entitled a refund. However, judging by the number and content of ebay related threads in general, I dont think you'd have much trouble getting your money back.

If not, the item number's 130412511618
Edit: No amtter how it turns out, I think the game kinda has me. I've never been able to conjure muffins before. If I can find a way to lightning-combo a mob down to minimal health and backhand it for a finisher, I'm sold.

The link had two 'HTTPs' but it was fine when I removed one lot of HTTP. So the thing sold for £5. As it includes the strategy guide, I think you did alright there, even if the code is already taken. Brand new WoW games (i.e. code not yet taken) seem to be going for the £15 mark.

Don't think the seller's done anything wrong tbh. Alright, he's not mentioned that the key's been used but he's also not sold it as unused.
Most people would state in the description that the key is used/unused to avoid potential misunderstandings.
You live and learn.
You can pick up WoW+TBC (or another battle chest) for a tenner from a well known internet retailer who's name I can't mention because OC also sell WoW stuff.

Ha! Winner - the seller was, unfortunately, lied to in turn. He's never played it himself, and was told by his seller that the keys were unused and still valid, but obviously never checked them. Now I've just got to pull the same thing off with the Wrath of the Lich King I bought at the same time, and I'm laughing. This description jst reads "POST AND PACK £1.00" - lack of imagination there.
I might pull my chestnuts out of the fire yet.
