Absurdly stupid question time: Did you try contacting the seller to find
out if they have the plate in question? :o)
Second absurdly stupid question: Did you call LEGO Customer Service to
order a free replacement piece if the above failed? If you're in the US
this is not usually a problem.
Last absurdly stupid question: If the set was listed as MIB, I assume that
means the seller opened the box, opened the bags, played with it for a
while, and put the stuff back into the box, but unfortunately missed this
rather important element?
Or is it supposed to mean Mint In Box, with unopenend polybags? If he
stuffed up on the description of the set that's probably double he owes you
for, if you get my meaning. ;-)
I really think the seller should be careful anyway, describing something as
having the box, as MIB - that seems to imply MISB which is completely
different, but that some people look at something described as MIB, and
think, "cool, it's unopened" when it's not ...
Cheers ...

Footnote: When my spelling checker hit polybags, it came back with
pollywogs as a suggested spelling!! :-)))))) I had some as a kid, not too
bad IMHO. Nice biscuit, too. I believe they're still made.
