Billionaire David Einhorn has gotten clobbered on his short bet against Tesla shares — but at least he got some breezy summer gear out of the deal.

On Friday the hedgie behind Greenlight Capital said on Twitter that he received a box of shorts from Tesla CEO Elon Musk.

“I want to thank @elonmusk for the shorts. He is a man of his word!” Einhorn said in a tweet Friday morning.

Einhorn was referring to Musk’s promise earlier this month to send him “short shorts” after the hedgie bemoaned his fund’s weak performance and said he was “happy” his Model S lease was ending.

“Tragic. Will send Einhorn a box of short shorts to comfort him through this difficult time,” Musk tweeted Aug. 1., a day after Einhorn revealed his fund was down 18.3 percent for the year.

But the Tesla founder was not directly responsible for the delivery, according to a CNBC report on Friday. Chubbies, a San Francisco apparel maker, sent the shorts to Einhorn after seeing Musk’s tweet, according to the report.

In response, Musk on Friday tweeted “Awesome” alongside a smiley-faced emoji.

Einhorn, meanwhile, appeared less-than-impressed with the shorts.

“They did come with some manufacturing defects,” Einhorn said Friday.

Tesla has been a particularly frustrating stock for short-sellers. The stock is up over 14 percent this year despite a wave of negative news.

This week, it was reported that the Securities and Exchange Commission is investigating Tesla in part because of a tweet Musk sent Tuesday claiming he had “funding secured” to take the company private at $420 a share.

A Bloomberg report Friday also cast doubt that Musk had already secured financing.

Telsa and Musk were reported to be “seeking a wide pool of investors” to take the company private, according to Bloomberg sources.

The company is in early talks with banks and Musk wants to avoid the company being controlled by only one or two shareholders, the report said.

Reps for Einhorn and Tesla did not immediately respond to requests to comment.
