KShine Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 1 hour ago, KShine said: 3 of the 4 that have arrived (so far) are all unsealed (all seals) Statistically, this simply does not happen. I call shenanigans on Target! Correction - I assumed that that 1 was ok (as it didn't initially look crushed), but 4 of 4 were unsealed.

Pseudoty Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 I only ordered 1 online, couldn’t risk another Target ban for this, and it arrived today in a box the size of a coffee table stuffed with air pillows with seals intact. I think they may have run out of proper size boxes and thus the disclaimer was added to the listing on Monday that they may ship unboxed. I guess these are the new UMHC in that every reseller got some cheap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shipped in a box too small w/o packing, laid diagonally (not diagon alley 😛) and all 4 seals were popped. Glad it's to keep & build. My Harry & Hermione came with all 4 seals open as well. I checked the bags today. It looks like there are 2 sets of numbered bags maybe 1 for Harry's Lego parts and 1 for Hermione's Lego parts. I am missing a bag #3 and a bag #4. Must have fallen out at the warehouse? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously not an issue here since the outer box is opened, but (in general) do you consider that amount of damage to be 'acceptable'? I've gotten several sets lately with creases like that and I'm trying to calibrate my expectations. I remember seeing an old article (I think on Brickpicker) concluding box damage didn't affect value that much, but I'm not sure that conclusion still holds.

There's got to be a certain degree of pickiness, but over the top pickiness means you will rarely ever be satisfied with condition and will spend more time returning. Most buyers on Ebay aren't that concerned about small creases. Just note it in your listing to cover yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty much the rule I follow; especially hearing stories of people getting banned for excess returns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
