What to do with a damaged card?

[Richo]

The dents sound like someone maybe wrote on a sticker while the card was in the sleeve. just sell it cheap and use registered post

Nah they are too all over the shop, no formed letters or anything just scratches randomly over the card.....hard to figure out how they got there.
Shame really.....such a nice card

Yeah I voted sell with detailed description, that way you arent being a tool selling a card thats got flaws in it that no one else can see...nothing worse than recieving something the seller hasnt pointed out thats wrong with it

you know what sucks.. just got a card in the mail that is totally bent... it is from ebay so I went back to check the scan and the crease was there but the card's condition was described as Very Good, Near Mint/Mint Condition. What should I do? I am leaning towards just filing for item not received... why would I spend money to return an item and run the risk of getting absolutely nothing in return if they claim they never received my returned card...!!

Sounds dodgey but I would probably do the same...kinda depends if this is a $300 card or a $2 card though I reckon

It doesn't matter how much the card is worth. If they want to sell a dodgy card as mint condition, they have already lied and hence should be punished. It also doesn't matter how much I have to pay to send the card back because I have already fulfilled my side of the bargain (by paying for the item plus its inflated postage as usual) and I should pay no more from that point onwards. Sending the card back is just kicking the ball back to the dodgy seller's court. I have even experimented with another card and there is no way that it was a factory crease.

Mmm I know what your saying but just because they have burnt you abit doesnt mean you should burn them back...maybe im too honest

I was going to add, frame it up with some pics and a statistics plaque, and you probably wouldn't even notice the imperfections and it would look sick on the wall...
