Alla:

Steve, I love Harry's character dearly and I had in the past and 
will defend him against many of his alleged wrongdoings that I 
honestly do not see as wrongdoings at all.

But oh I disagree with you here. I do not **care** if Harry just 
failed to specify the terms of the contract. My thing is that IMO 
Harry knew precisely that Goblin expected the sword to be delivered 
right after his service or help or whatever is done.

I think Harry knew what Goblin expected and did not do it on 
purpose, which I may understand or not.

But I think Harry was dishonest with Goblin in the same way I think 
Goblins were dishonest with human wizards, specifically with 
whomever they sold the sword.

I get why Harry wanted to do that, but I still prefer him to be 
honest with Goblin and told him that no, he will not get the sword 
at least till all horcruxes are destroyed.

And if Goblin refused to help, then so be it IMO.

JMO,
