So I need a little advice.

I bought a collectible figure from a guy in Japan on eBay and got it last Wednesday. I opened it up, but the arm was broken off. I took pictures and sent it to the guy, and he said it probably broke off in shipping. The figure was new and unopened, so there was no real way to tell it was broken until it was opened.

Anyways, he says I need to contact USPS to file a damage claim, but when I called USPS, they said he needs to start the claim since it is an international package. But he just emailed me again saying I need to start a claim too.

So does anyone have any advice on what to do, or have been in this situation before?
First bit of advice: Stop buying Dragon ***. Especially from shady Chinese guys on eBay.

Second bit of advice, I suggest you go to 4chan, and ask their /toy/ board what to do about it. They'd be more knowledgeable and active than RT on such matters.
Third bit of advice, don't listen to Candlejack.

Have the form ready and filled out with as much information as you can, and then send it to the guy in Japan and have him finish it out.

I'm confused since USPS told me he has to start the claim first. But I guess I'll try going to my local office tomorrow and see what they say.

And I don't use 4chan, never even been to their site before, I just figured someone on this site has been in a similar situation before, and knew what to do when I have conflicting reports on what to do.

Technically Eobard Thawne is the Reverse Flash.

You need to submit something to eBay about receiving damaged goods, or receiving something that wasn't "as advertised".

Generally, if you look through the protection clauses found on eBay, the seller agrees that they are responsible for the condition or quality of what they are selling/representing. You can also post a review about the merchandise you purchased on the seller's page and the condition it was received in.

Then you would wait for some kind of response from the seller, though USPS would also be partially responsible.

I know I can do that, but I think the seller gets a chargeback, and I would have to return the figure, which is broken, so he loses out bigtime. I'm just giving the seller and USPS a chance to fix this before going through eBay to fix it.

It's probably easily fixable, but I also didn't spend almost 200$ shipped to get a broken figure, either.

Tier 6 Connie is finally happening.


As a <1% chance random drop from cash shop R&D packs for a limited time only.
Right after they released the reboot movie version in a random chance box only openable with cash shop keys because this original version was "never going to happen".
And they'll get away with this *** because people with too much money are HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE.

This looks a lot like Deathspank.

The artwork I mean, not the gameplay.

They call him that because his suit's color scheme is the reverse of Flash's suit.

I was going to ask if his streaks when running were blue, but I don't remember if that is how Doppler works.

I'd remove it for being suggestive, replace it with a pic of Hillary, and suspend your avatar privs.
