Avengers # 4 Grading is Subjective

[mackenzie999]

If seller said to refer to scan for grading, that infers that there are no hidden defects. As there obviously are, condition not as described. You will win this if you persevere.

Definitely one to ask for return or discount - I use the subjective statement myself - but I also list any defects that might not be obvious for a scan -like any detached staples. Plus - I do not do it to disavow my grades ( but that is me) - but more for someone to make sure that they use their best judgement,.

 

When you open the case - make sure to use the hidden defects (and list any that were not evident from the initial listing and pictures) as well as what those defects do to the overall grade as the reasoning. Be sure to attach pics, this will help protect you in case the seller is a tool.

 

 

I would not ask for a discount but would absolutely demand a refund.

Make sure this includes return shipping. If not - call ebay direct with case number. You are entitled to return shipping if not as described

No. As pr. eBay rules, you're entitled to get a full refund which includes your original shipping charges, but return shipping is always on the buyer's dime (with some very specific exceptions - stolen goods, counterfeit items, etc).

Thanks - I don't mind paying shipping in the circumstances

Considering how badly overgraded the book is, the seller should definitely pick up shipping both ways - but there's no way you can force him to do so, unfortunately.

Actually, eBay will make up the difference if you follow through with the "item received not as advertised, etc." claim, but that takes forever.
