Just bought some loose figs off the bay. They arrived reeking of cigarette smoke. Seller claims he sent them mint and he doesn’t smoke. What’s my course of action?
If I return them he will claim I made them smell like smoke or I fig swapped with Smokey ones?

Ebay will always protect the buyer, no matter what. I don't personally agree with that 100% of the time but even if it was you who give the figures a bath is chewing tobacco spit water, you'll get your refund.

Yeah you'll get your refund.
Sucks you have to go through this hassle though.

Either way they stink. Gotta be pretty bad if wrestling figures smell that strongly. Return it and just keep pushing even if ebay gives you a hard time. Likely they won't though.

Ebay usually sides with the buyer, even if it is ridiculous circumstances...you got nothing to worry about.

Ebay sides with the buyer most times, but not all the time. I sold an electric guitar last year and it was in perfect condition and the buyer tried to get his $400 bucks back by saying I sent him a broken and wrong item, I didn't, I don't do that crap, and he tried to scam me and Ebay to get his money back and keep the great guitar I shipped him. After a few emails and whatnot back and fourth with Ebay and the "buyer", I won. I kept my $400 bucks and he kept the guitar I sent him.
If the seller really wants to put through the effort. He can win. But I guess it all depends on how much you paid and whatnot. I was not going to let 400 bucks and a guitar just be taken from me.

Can't you spray them with Febreeze?

I don't get it. I used to smoke and quit in July after 12 years. I never smoked inside my house or apartment. The damage it causes is beyond a well known fact.
Go outside, but if you can't, at least have the decency to not try to sell your stinky crap you blew smoke all over.

Return them. If They’re not as described you’ll win no question.
