Speaker purchase question


I have been a member here for 22 years, but encountered something today for the first time and would appreciate your opinions. 
I bought a pair of used speakers on Agon and they arrived with no grilles. The seller is stating that the pics did not have grilles (true) and they were not mentioned in the ad. These Rega speakers did come standard with grilles originally. I thought that the pics were taken to show the condition of the drivers. When I asked the seller, he said that he had looked into buying new grilles, but since he didn't mention them in the ad, it should have been obvious they weren't included. 
Am I wrong to feel deceived? I want to be reasonable and would be interested to hear other opinions.

Live and learn.  The fact that he stated that the tweeters had been “upgraded” should have been an obvious clue for you to be particularly cautious and inquisitive.  You were not deceived.  You, as the buyer of a used product, should have been more careful if the grills were that important to you.  Move on, enjoy your speakers and don’t let this sour your listening.  So, how do they sound?
