| Recived this, been looking forward to it arrvie for few days, :-  It was sold in mint condition but was posted in this :-  absolutly gutted as it looked amazing in the photo now it has a cracked bubble (Managed to get big dints out) and massive crease in card  posibly only suitable for loose now  I entered a claim but wasnt worth sending item back so i have left them feedback and recived 2 more emails from unhappy buyers that are going through the same thing. One paid ofer £150 for the moc and it was that badly damaged it fell off the card.......... |

|  It survives 25 years only to have some tossbag send it in an envelope. Sorry to see it Lee  It's a bit late now but I always ask sellers to confirm how they intend on sending me items, & I happily pay a little extra for a box. This was after I got an offerless 20 back sent the same way |

| Lee, that does suck arse mate, did the other buyers leave them neg as well? Maybe sell it on rather than open for a loose figure? im sure there will be peeps who want one that is not quite mint Andy |

| Have you got a picture of the original auction as well ? So we can see the condition before it was posted and what shipping like that can do to a carded figure? Sorry about this once again |

| If thats the same one Gandalf got, you can see all the creases in the photo, I hate to say. Even the corner wear shows in that shot. |

The top right corner seems totally flat though. In Gandalfs picture: not so much. |

Kinda hard to tell from the way they took the original photo, laying flat, compared to the way Gandalf's photo is, standing up. Still sucks either way. |
