Omg! The packaging is really beat up! :( The poor sketch looks so bad as well. Is there a way to gently bend the cels edge in the opposite direction to flatten the cel out again? I hope the seller gives you a refund Kittens.

These picture do not show well but there are 4 bends middle of the cel..... /sob

Yeah I took pictures of the package b/c I wanted to show how bad the packing was and all bends in the package completely match the bends in the cel......

I have been waiting for the seller to contact with me but he has not..... I hope he does soon :(

Those creases in the middle make it look like it got caught in a sorting machine or something. Man!!

The only good thing I can say is it doesn't appear from those shots that it actually beat up the painted area, which seems like something of a miracle, truly!!

If it looks reasonable with the background I'd keep it anyway, because it's one lovely shot...but that's just me. Whether you keep it or not, though, that seller really ought to refund part of your money, at least, and should know better. That is one chewed up package.


edit: whoops I was repeating myself repeatedly.

Yeah I agree! I thought OMG all bends avoided paints :OMG

But yeah it looks like they were caused by some machine.... They remind me of photo copy machine.... You know, if a paper gets stocked middle of the machine and if you forced to take it out, it looks like exactly like this.....

So I bet it got stocked in the middle of machine and someone forced to take it out..... :( :(

Poor cel...... I just feel so bad for it.

Like I said I put a BG for it and it looks much better :) So I definitely keep it :)

Thank you :) Yeah since it is such a beaty I was more upset that the seller did not care the packing!

I sold/give several cels and BGs but I ALWAYS care how I pack....... Even though I do not have them anymore but I always wish they ganna be last forever in a good condition..... I am just mad that the seller did not care.......

EMS is automatically insured, I believe. However, looks like the seller
declared the value as "$10" from your picture, so if they trigger off of that,
you may not be able to get anything worthwhile for it.
