The painter walks away with everything, that can't be right?
Is it ?

Well you wouldn't have been left with nothing if you had asked him to purchase a new shell and send it to you UN-PAINTED...
Also if you had given him instructions to sell the bodyshell, then you could have asked to be refunded the money you have paid for the paint work..
He wouldn't have been out of pocket as he would have sold the shell you didn't want, and you wouldn't have been out of pocket as you would have had your money back and a new shell back!
Communication with the painter is key! If you had thought it through properly to get the issue resolved, and not been so quick to say 'throw it away', then maybe this could have been sorted out pretty quick and painless without any need for it to be made public on a forum for both of you.
