Infrared Trouble..

Hi, I sold an R1C1 Commander kit recently. The buyer is telling me the infrared is not triggering the SB-R200's or his SB-900. After I know it worked perfectly when tested before posting to him. Your thoughts or suggestions on what the issue could be? He is very difficult and issists it is damaged. Is that possible? I personally think it is his error.
