this demonstrates that if he gives an address to send payment to that he doesn't control he will treat it as if payment was not received. If I am sending first to him and he makes this kind of mistake then I am out however much I just sent.
This is essentially what happened with segvec in the currency exchange section when he gave someone an incorrect address and the person who sent funds to be out 14 btc
Edit:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=896143.0It's comparable and you can draw comparisons but it's a different case. Also, segvec is probably lying though he should've paid back for his error either way and so should redsnow had it come to that. Luckily this situation got sorted so no one was out of pocket but it could've been worse and redsnow was lucky in that respect and has gotton off lightly and relatively unscathed.
