First of all, thanks for answering.
I would just like to note first that I asked for photos before buying, of course. The thing is that in the photos the item didn't look bad... But sincerely because if you don' make detailed photos you can't see those things. That's why I asked him literally, "Any defect you would note?" and he didn't answer that. That's maybe only the main mistake I made, buying without an answer to that (because I thought we didn't have anything to note). But again, it's a mistake made after reading the description "like new" and seeing photos of an item apparently looking good.
And second thing, we are not talking about a scammer, the seller says if the third party arbitring this says I'm right, he will compensate me what I ask. So I don't want to give names and ruin future sellings of his user (where I hope he will be more carefull with what he claims and what he sells).He proposes to look for a random person posted in the straight shooters list and ask him if he would arbitrate. But well, as you said this is something I have to work out directly with the seller, so I won't annoy more about this here.
Thanks for the help and the tips!
OK, sounds like you did not use a Paypal G & S.......is that correct? I can't see why you would not use Paypal to settle the current issue with your transaction. Paypal is the appropriate 3rd party arbitrator in this situation........not some random MW member you find from the "straight shooters" list......you are taking a huge risk as a new member in thinking that this seller is acting on YOUR best interest and that whatever member you find will be impartial and not a friend of your seller........of course, you can proceed as you wish, but Paypal should be the resource you use as your 3rd party arbitror....Is the seller trying to dissuade you from going through Paypal to settle your issue? You both already agreed to use Paypal to facilitate your transaction and now should really use them again to settle the current situation....Again, good luck to you!

Admins are not arbitrators in sales or trades between MW members. You need to work this out with either the seller directly...or have a third-party (like Paypal) settle the case for you.
First, you made the mistake of buying an item BEFORE your requests for pics and answers to your questions were answered. You basically went against the criteria you yourself put forth on your wanted post----you have very few posts so it is easy to figure out what toy your are referring to.
Second, stick to the requirements you set for yourself in the wanted post.....accept nothing less....the seller not responding or sending you pics does not eliminate his responsibility to deliver what he had previously told you you would receive...a "like new" item.
Third, did you pay for the item using a Paypl Goods and Services payment? Your wanted post indicates you used Paypal...but not all Paypal payments protect you as the buyer.
If you did use a Paypal G&S payment, you can stop the back-and-forth right now. Just based on your description of the conversation so far, this member is screwing you around and already flat out lied to you (a like new condition item would not be the correct description for a yellowed item. Period.)
Open a case with Paypal and supply them with whatever info they need. Essentially, just tell them that the item delivered was not as described and that you want a refund or to be compensated for the damage via a partial refund(personally, just request the full refund and find another one to purchase). Then wait for Paypal to figure things out. This seems like a slam-dunk case against the seller.
If you did not use Paypal Goods and Services to pay for your item and instead used a Paypal Friends and Family payment, you are SOL.
I hope you are able to resolve this, it sounds like you were defrauded....if so, we all need to know who this member is so we can all avoid him/her.
The only other option you can pursue, if you essentially paid cash for the item, would be a Postal Fraud Claim. Since you seem to be residing in Europe, I am not exactly sure how your postal service would accomodate such a case, you would need to do some research online or simply go to your local post office and seek some guidance.
Good Luck!

Yeah you are right. It's worse than I thought too. Ugh
It is beyond debate at this point....at least among collector's.......box condition matters......if only for the mere fact that it's potential future market value is adversely affected and quantifiable...but more importantly, if it matters to the customer it should matter to the seller.......
I would at least contact them and see if they can replace the boxes for you
Good Luck!

The Virtual Queue is actualy pretty good IMO......just make sure you have a good phone and test to see what connection is quicker on the day you need to reserve your spot....in my case, it was my carrier's netwrok that was always faster...by leaps and bounds...when compared to the Disney WIFI.....most people that I spoke to at Hollywood Studios that failed to reserve a spot for the ROTR said they were always conencted to the Disney WIFI when trying to nab a spot on the queue....I managed to go 3-for-3 for each of the three days I was at HS....I was able to get on boarding group 2, 4 and 8..all during the 7AM initial opening for the first round of boarding passes....the second round would be tougher if youcannot get a good signal from your carrier as the Disney WIFI is pretty bad all over HS....so if you go, make sure you get on the initial boarding passes released at 7AM....or it will just be way harder during the 1PM second round

Is the stickied thread correct that the preorder night is August 2, 4pm JST?
Also, has there been any word of a 31A repop? I'd honestly rather go for the repop.
yes...
No word on a rerelease...but maybe a VF-31AX CF in similar colors?

Thanks for sharing that, JVM!
Nikick... Megahouse need to make a Variable Action Hi-Spec figure of that to complete the Orguss set. Seriously.
I actually bought one of those Megahouse Orguss toys out of pure nostalgia..........never even watched a single episode, but always say I will someday....the toy is still MISB...

That Mikimoto book has already been pushed to 2023....there is no reason to expect any kind of update at this point other than another delay alert!

You are probably right, but I hope they do go the extra mile and actually create an exclusive box for this "Armored Valkyrie"....like they did for their VF-25S Armored Messiah....
...or more recently, the VF-171 EX Maruyama......although that is more of a fast pack I suppose...
I really prefer the bundle packs.....too bad Bandai does not offer them as much anymore......
