Ebay Problem- Legal Implications

    Hello. I would just like some advice on the following situation:

    I recently sold a DVD set on Ebay which I purchased from an Asian website. On this website it was listed as being as 100% official and the price seemed amazing so I purchased it with the intent to resell it on ebay. I genuinely believed it was official.

    So I sold it on ebay and the buyer received it. I received an email today stating that these are fakes and that they are reporting me to the police to have me prosecuted! Obviously this scared the hell outta me! I did not produce these DVD's and genuinely believed they were the real deal.

    I was just wondering if they can actually do this? What kinda trouble would I be in? I'm only 19 and am really worried. The buyer is form another country so will the police from there be able to prosceute me for something?

    I hope somone can help clarify cos i'm really scared. Thanks.

    If worst comes to worst, simply tell the buyer that you will reimburse them their money as you didn't realise they were fakes. tell them to send them back and you'll send them their money back
