My take on this is.....
If the seller had said he would refund the shipping, you have a gripe, otherwise, I would say your on your own.
My point being this, when my wife orders something from a catolog or online, she can return it, but the buyer pays the return shipping. As I buy quite a bit online, that is always something that I check prior to making a purchase, as I have had to eat $100 shipping bills.
From the pictures, the damage appeared to happen from being dropped/tossed, I generally pack stuff I am shipping so it is prepared for careless handlers, I have had to live through a couple shipping mishaps, even though my packages were packed extra well.
I offered up 2sets of speakers for free, but guess what? The recipient didn't want to pay $25 for the shipping, point being, lots of people cheap out on insurance. So, OP,makers these insured?

A seller is responsible for the item getting to the buying in the condition presented to them even if it happened during shipping. In this case the seller should have refunded the money and sent the user a shipping label then opened a dispute with the shipping company to get his money back, if he didn't pay for insurance on the package that's his own fault.

So according to the time line you posted he was trying to get you a new set from Tasca but you turned him down? Why?
It sounds as if he was trying to get you a set of mirrors that met your standards.

No, I hounded him for weeks about the status of his offer to get me a replacement set. My first option was for him to refund me. He wanted to try and get a set from Craigslist, or Tasca if that didn't work. Again, I didn't ask for him to do that, he offered. He settled the PayPal suddenly and was unresponsive to requests to cover shipping, as he promised to do.
