It's likely that someone out there only got one when they paid for two, and is screaming at the seller as we speak. Definitely your lucky day. Now you can play with one and keep one MIP, even if just to comemmorate the great 08 BB craze of summer 2007! We'll all laugh about this next year.

Or do what I did, and have 1 in robot mode and the other in alt mode, it's actually a very nice way to display figures, I'm seriously considering doing it with more of my favourites from other lines too.
Awesomesauce; Use it, you know you want to.

I like doing that too with some of them, but it does get expensive. One FORT MAX in robot mode, one in starship mode, one in base mode...

You are going to let the seller know, right? After all of the debate over scalpers are bad, etc... taking advantage of someone's mistake is on a lower rung of the ethical ladder.

That would be the right thing to do wouldn't it. If the seller is any kind of good seller, they'll just say keep it, as it is not a super rare vintage figure, it is one that is currently available, although hard to find.
The seller would appreciate it, and at the least, they would pay you to ship it back to them...

...that's really not your place to do such a thing.
eBay eXpress or not...the person was selling one item (they're single sellers, like eBay auctioneers) they usually only have one to two of an item in stock...
You should've at least contacted the seller and explained what happened.
And the fact that you went to your mom for assistance in this, tells me you're younger than 18 and therefore shouldn't be on eBay in the first place.
Where the hell are the parents, today? Seriously...
