From reading it i thought it meant buy 3 and receive a 4th one free so in this case i would expect an invoice for 3 items and a question as to what i would want for my 4th

Exactly.
Well the buyer appears not have got any question - they got an invoice for 3.
I would have read it as buy 3 and get one of those items free. But you may be right as they also have "BUY ANY 2 ITEMS AND GET YOUR 3RD ITEM 50% OFF" but they didn't get an invoice with 50% off one item either.
Either way - the buyer is not getting a fair deal.
The seller has made their own problems by their wording.
--------
I misunderstood the buyers words.....
so i sent money through paypal for the amount of 2 as they were all the same price, which the seller has sent back, which is great, with a message saying i have to pay full price for all three, should i leave negative feedback?
I thought the last bit was part of the sellers message.
Yes...means buy 3 and get another one free. Four in all! Does not say buy two and get a third free.! The buyer purchased two expecting the third for nothing...but third is 50% off.
There are in fact two different language problems going on here, one caused by using caps. had better not say too much more however. Buyer was paying for two! Nowhere does it say pay for two items only! Pay for 2 1/2 or pay for 3...never pay for 2.
I agree it is convoluted, but so far as I can see the only mistake seller has made is repay an amount sent in error. We have no idea what buyer said in reply to the invoice.
The seller has not threatened negative feedback. This is linguistic again.
It means buy 3 and get another free (four in all); there is another clause which says buy two and get a third at 50%.
This is making me think that we are all reading two different adverts or some are not reading it at all.
But fs you check whole thread you'll see I am claiming a linguistic problem here. Nuff said.

In which case he should have got an invoice with a 50% discount off the third item. It would appear from the buyer that the invoice sent was the total amount for the 3.
Never let me near a shop offering buy 3 get one free . Buy 3 and get an additional one free fits into my obviously warped shopping logic but if I see buy 3 get one free then my shopping brain is somewhat out of touch!
Ok so I know that I am wrong........
