Classic Catwoman Premium Format

So annoying. I received this statue today from Midtown Comics, but there's no base in the box. In it's place, a duplicate Catwoman head was wrapped up.

Argh!

Sorry to quote my own post, but something else is bothering me. One of the heads was wrapped in green bubble wrap, and the statue was dusty. If I'm buying a statue from a large retailer like Midtown Comics, is it unreasonable to expect that I'll receive a new statue? Shouldn't they note on their site if a statue has been displayed?

I would think so, but with a large retailer like Midtown, sometimes the right hand has no idea what the left is doing.

I guess I'm lucky they included both hands.

It might have been the display piece

I think it was. I know that I'm new to statues, but when I buy something off a retailer's website, I'd like to think I'm getting a new item, not one that's been collecting dust on a shelf for a few months.

If that's the last one they have, it gets sold

Good news. Midtown is replacing the statue with an unopened one, and reimbursing my return shipping costs.

That's great! She's a beauty on display:

Midtown is notorious for selling displayed pieces and having lackluster shipping efforts.

Keeping my fingers crossed that I'll receive that replacement without a hitch.

I hope so! I've ordered from them in the past without issue but I've heard some bad stories. Only reason I didn't order the KA Captain America shield from them.

They know they're not supposed to sell something that was on display unless they mention it on the description as used or displayed. And if they do, they are supposed to sell it in intact, complete and with no issues. Otherwise, they need to put it for sale on eBay. New York City's Midtown Comics, oh brother.

Their website never differentiates between displayed or never opened in box :/

That's why I order early to avoid last minute places like this. They sent this guy no base and so what kind of crap is that. To the people here, there are other choices like BBTS who's got really affordable shipping rates.

Santa brought me this Catwoman for Xmas, and she's perfect . So happy!

Same here. Between star wars, DC 1/6 and pf figures, you really have to be choosey. With prices being what they are and the second market dead, you better like what you bought.
