OK... so I sent him an email... read below....
__________________________________________________ ____ Got a question as that I have seen a lot of fakes up here recently. If that item has never been open, why is there a "Visible Crease" along the top of the package in your photo. I have been collecting Joes for a while now and know what to look for and I despise BS sellers that try to make a buck on the uninformed. Regardless if you have a reciept that indicates it as a "Destro & Cpl Breaker" from the store... it could be a reciept for an actual one, vice this BS that your trying to pass off as the real deal. It is only fair that you re-list the item as opened or modified. By the way, I believe I'll report this to ebay... Semper Fi!, James |

giving him the benefit of the doubt, that really could be how he found it. someone replaced the fig, returned it and then he bought it... but with that being said, anyone who knows anything about joes could and should know that someone replaced it. I actually saw a couple of Target Exclusive vehicles with different drivers in there.

I also like how he dropped the BIN price by half since people started busting his balls about it.

Here is his reply to my message....
__________________________________________________ _____ Dear sanders7981, The visible crease is well above the absoluteley sealed top. That same damage was on the other carded items that I did not purchase from the store. The rest of the item is sealed as well. I have been collecting Joes for many years and take honor in the items that I post for sale. I purchase a lot of items from stores and personally purchased this item and posted it immediately. You do not know me well enough to say that I am a BS seller. I understand your frustration with sellers that do not post honest posts but I am going to stand by my posting because it is the truth. - gijoe-sam |

If he really did buy it that way, I think you owe him an apology. He may just be too naive to think that someone would open the package, replace the fig, reclose it and then return it to the store. On the other hand, if it was him who opened it then that's just not right. BUT, there really is no way to find out for sure and people cannot just make snap judgments. I'd say let it be, karma has a weird way of biting back.
