    I made a trade recently, A Thomas “L” for a. Boston Mumford and the Mumford packaging showed up like this. No fault of the shipper it was packaged correctly.

    Wow.....that's the worst I've ever seen! Was there a tube in there?

    I always use those triangle mailers as well because you cant stack anything on them.....but looks like they found a way!

    It looks like it got wet. Once cardboard gets wet it’s over.

    I bought an XS hoodie in Boston. I had no idea they did this size. Were they selling XS hoodies in Seattle?

    You can file a claim with the shipper for its amount. Unfortunately they will only give u what was stated as its value on the invoice. Perhaps those funds can be used to repair/frame it?

    That’s startling. I think we all expect some to make to eBay. But over 20%?

    I should be getting mine soon then. Awesome. Can’t wait. You didn’t get any shipping confirmation though right?

    Similar thing happened to me except I bought 3 posters off ebay (Fenway Mumford, Williams, Brown) from the same seller.  The seller shipped them all in one tube and my mail deliverer left the tube sticking out of my mailbox in a downpour.  All three have water damage...they can still be framed with likely no one being able to notice on the front of the prints but the backs have noticeable damage, etc.

    The post office will give you $50 if you file a claim.  If the shipper bought additional insurance then you can file the claim based off of that...when you file the claim online they can tell if insurance was purchased based on the tracking #.  Definitely file a claim to get your $50.

    I am appealing the $50 minimum by stating that it wasn't damaged during shipping...it was damaged by negligence of the deliverer.  Not sure if that will do any good.

    Lessons I have learned:
    1. ALWAYS have the seller/shipper purchase additional insurance for the value of the print.  If you go on ebay and see them selling for $200 then get $200 insurance....it's cheap as hell and at least you can replace it if damaged.
    2. When buying from ebay...have the seller ship each print separately so you can at least get $50 for each shipment

    You will not win that appeal. Weather is considered an “act of god” which USPS is not responsible for.  It’s in their terms and conditions. 

    Also, just to clarify something - insurance is the seller’s responsibility and covers their ass, not the buyer’s.  As a buyer you are entitled to the item you payed for in the description it was listed.  If it arrives in any other condition, regardless of why, you are covered by PayPal or your credit card.  There is NO reason to have a seller ship all prints separately to get $50 for each.  The seller should just be responsible and insure the package for its total worth to protect themselves.  If a seller tried to get you to pay for the insurance, don’t do it.  You’re already covered by PayPal.

    Again - insurance is to protect the seller, NOT the buyer.  I can’t stress this enough.  If a package comes destroyed and the seller says sorry you didn’t ask for insurance I can only offer you $50, that’s not how it goes.  They are responsible for the delivery of the item as listed.  And honestly as a buyer I would never file a claim with USPS, I consider that to be the seller’s job to get their money back somehow.

    And you would have paid triple the shipping or convince the seller to spend extra money. Do it however you want, I personally don’t care. I’m just giving advice to anyone who might not know their rights as a buyer for what they are and are not responsible for when it comes to damaged packages and insurance.

    Sorry to but in and I’m sure I missed something, but did you return it to the eBay seller?  Even if they don’t accept returns you’re covered for the full sum because it didn’t arrive as expected.  It’s sucks for the seller, but that’s how it is.

    Hasn’t been delivered yet, unless it’s in the same tube.  Didn’t take it out, but the receipt only had the Madrid on it.  It was in much wider tube than normal.  Maybe the Seattle AP is in there too.  Will check after work.
