Condition Expectations

[Rickyy]

Many years ago, I had the exact same experience...bought a 1972 Set advertised just like yours and most of the high number runs had corner water damage. This was purchased via mail the old fashioned way (back in the old days from a long time dealer). I contacted him and he told me I could return the entire set for refund or he could send me another one (he had multiples in his inventory) or to send back the damaged ones and he will replace them. I took the last option as the non damaged ones were as advertised. I agree that water damage is definitely out of the realm of the condition as described. Hopefully you can get a full refund.

Not saying you did anything wrong, but how did you not notice this before completing the purchase? Were there not pics of the damaged cards? I don't buy sets but if I did for vintage, I think I would go for one of those deals where the key cards, stars, HOFer's and high numbers etc. were graded. That way you have no doubt. And I could deal with commons being damaged more easily a lot quicker than the stars.

Either way you should be able to get a refund, good luck.

There were pictures and they did not reveal the damage. I have had good luck with this vendor in the past.

And let me guess, the seller had the lot listed with "NO RETURNS" and you had to deal with E-bay Philippines to get your money back in a 3 week escapade?

I think the seller is a jerk off PERIOD.
