So I picked up the this Shadow Warriors 2 for justabum on ebay, seemed like an ok price, looked like an ok copy...

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISA...






Guess I should have taken more heed of their comment "There is a tear on the back of the box near the top"

That's more than a simple "tear". Selling an item in that condition without specifically stating that the box is trashed is shady as hell.

That's shady, I'll give you that, but I don't think they were out to scam anyone, I mean the auctions mentions a tear and says to email for more pictures.  It sucks, it really does, but it's not scamming.

Not a scam maybe, but obviously the seller went out of his or her way to deliberately hide the tear. That is just as bad as being a scammer.

I'm still a bit shocked, haven't contacted the seller, or left feedback yet...I guess I had the right to ask for the more photos, but damn, half the back missing?!

If the guy had disclosed what was really wrong with the box then it would not have sold for much at all. So, he made it look as good as possible (which looked pretty nice) and put a disclaimer on condition as well as an option for additional photos. His disclaimer did not fully explain the true condition.

Most people want game boxes for collectible purposes. This box is definitely not in collectable condition and his disclaimer did not fully disclose what was wrong with it. I am thinking this is a willful misrepresentation of the item and you deserve a refund (or partial if you want to keep it)

You should not have to ask for additional photos to determine that a big chunk of the back is missing, even if he says there is a tear in the back in my opinion.

Sorry that happened.

Messaged the seller, put the ball into his court. I may just have to take the loss on this one:

Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I got the Shadow Warriors II game in the post yesterday and I was quite shocked at the condition. You mentioned in your listing that there was a tear on the back of the box, but not that half of it was missing! I believe that your listing could have been a lot more honest about the condition of the box as the picture made it out to be in quite fine condition.
