Hi guys, need some advice. I am fairly new to card collecting. I have been buying for a few months now and this is the first bad transaction. Off of ebay of course.

I purchased the following ebay item:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/320777327153?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_500wt_1197

I got it today and one corner is badly damaged.

It may not look like it in the photo but the corner is way messed up.
What do you think I should do. It looks like the photo is doctored to cut off the damage in the ebay photo. Should I just return it and leave it at that, or leave a neg feedback so it does not happen to anyone else? It looks like this card has been sent a ton. there are 3 pieces of tape on the top loader that have been cut.

Thanks

Have you contacted the seller to let them know? They may offer a full refund if you return the card. If not you can open a case with ebay advising that the item was not as described and you should receive a full refund. It all depends on if/how the seller responds, IMO.

Yeah,

I just got it in so i just sent him a message. I will give him some time to respond. My only issue is that it was put in a white envelope and sent with a .44 cent stamp in a top loader. I am guessing he is doing this until someone does not care.

Thanks

he also looks like somone that is new to eBay and may not realize that you can't send a $22 card in a PWE. eBay will have your back if you want to dispute it.

Yeah, I would just contact the seller and see if you can work things out. If he does not respond or is rude just open a case and you will probably win. Ebay always favors the buyer. You will than most likely return the card to get the refund.

Just asking did he have the post office mark non-machinable on the envelope.
