I purchased a MOC 25th anny figure from ebay, and it finally arrives today. Not only does it take three weeks to arrive, but the genius seller ships it in a flimsy bubble mailer. I open it up, and the card has a huge crease all the way across the card. Why on earth would anyone ship a carded figure in a bubble mailer? I'm usually never leave negative feedback, but I may have to make an exception in this case. Just needed to rant...

Without seeing the auction we have no way of knowing if the auction specified MOMC or if special instructions were given concerning mailing. If not then it sounds like you got what you paid for, a mint on card figure that was shipped the cheapest way possible.

This guy should have known better why in the hell would you ship it this way! I can see it if the figure were loose but not a carded figure that hasn't been opened yet

Is this seller a dealer of collectibles, or just someone selling a toy? That might explain the seller's mindset.

You assume everyone has our level of common sense and that everyone sees GI Joe figures as some precious collectible item instead of just another $7 action figure.

The guy had to be a collector, because he had dozens of carded Joes for sale. I assume he knew better, but was just too lazy to pack it right, or just too cheap. |

I bought a W1 Flint on 25th card about half a year ago and the guy sent it in a bubble wrap envelope. I'm an opener so the card condition didn't matter to me, but the card was in surprisgingly good shape when I opened the envelope. I guess where I'm going with this is that part of it depends on your mail carrier.
