I bought a tpb from this seller that was listed as brand new at an amazing price with free shipping so I was stoked! Then the item arrived..As a collector, condition means a lot esp when I’m sold brand new. For a collectable, this was the worst packaging I’ve come across in awhile. The entire book was bent, forming a U shape. Besides that, the front and back cover are creased in several places. Asked for a return and sent photos, got offered a dollar refund instead.
