Whether they weasel out of it or not doesn't really matter to me. They have an obligation to ensure their vouchers are getting properly redeemed, and this wasn't. I don't really care, but stories like this have a tendency to get out of control for the merchant. If this happens enough times, they'll find that people aren't willing to use them anymore. I know I'm certainly less likely to try someone new on dealfind after reading this.

If people only buy from vendors they already use, merchants will have no incentive to use Dealfind, since they'd just be paying dealfind a fee to discount to their existing customers.

Ultimately, the blurb on their home page and the fine print in their return policy suggests they should honour Rudd's request. If the other fine print in the T&Cs contradicts that, maybe they don't legally have to, but they still should.
