Sadly according to my vendor, it arrived damaged. So he's request a new one and when that arrives and passes inspection,  he will then send it to me.

I'm sorry that happened Ben. Man, you've had your share of mishaps. It looks like an exhaust tip. Probably and easy glue fix, if that's all that is broken. Perhaps if you repair it the dealer can refund some money. Just a thought.

Yeah, I know what you mean; I've dealt with the same kind of seller before and that's not necessarily a bad thing at all. Still sorry you have to go through that. You're a good man Charlie Brown, uh, I mean Ben. Smile

Man, I hate to see that Ben, fortunately I've always had good luck with models arriving without damage. I'm hoping my special one that's on the way arrives prestine. It's coming from Spain, so fingers 🤞. Good luck with the replacement. 👍💯

....I've had MANY models arrive with slight damage.   99% of the time I can fix issues no problem; however, I usually file a claim for a partial refund - and I get it.    👍

Years ago the Sunstar ‘55 Pontiac I received was missing its hood ornament.. you know the one.. the Indian Chief’s head. I was so disappointed I almost cried as the model was otherwise perfect. When I contacted the seller he swore that it was there when he packed it so I tore apart the box and low and behold there it was stuck in a corner! What a relief and lesson learned to never immediately throw away the packaging.

@100ford2003 that's great news, in my case my seller will not ship something unless it is pristine to me.🫣

@modeldadeeee I'm curious, do you have any particular focus to your collection?
