I'm not going to buy a new car with a long scratch in the side, just as I would return a new shirt with a hole in it...its all the same to me, i just want to get what i bought in the condition i deserve
it's all just a shame IMHO

As for the packaging, maybe it's just luck of the draw who is putting it in the tube on any given day.

It had my edition number, the seperating line, then nothing!

See 'Lucky Find' thread for some sensible suggestions for creased prints.

Creased GIWTBB, by dodge on Oct 20, 2007 9:00:57 GMT 1, This site is a god send. My GIWTBB just arrived and like many other folks, has a big crease in the middle. Sob. Dead frustrating as this is the first Micallef I have managed to get my hands on without paying a small fortune on ebay.
Hopefully this will get sorted out. Such a pity as I can't wait to hang it. It's gonna take a monster frame though. This print is massive!

mine has a dent in it, where the blind stamp of the heart is. just beneath the signature, on the bottom right. damn. it seems like the blind stamp, weakened the paper, and when it was rolled, the paper just caved in there.
