Inner box is not perfect with a few creases / outer box has mailing tape and creases on it The love of automobiles led us to start our involvement in this hobby. Eight years ago, we became purchasers/investors in rare, high quality, die cast cars. Now, after eight years of buying thousands of rare pieces this is our first attempt to offer some of our acquisitions to other collectors worldwide. RARE, BUT NOT PERFECT’s mission statement: To offer the rarest and most aesthetically pleasing die cast replicas of the most remarkable automobiles ever made. Our organization is dedicated to the “car guy” that loves what these historical cars represent: the power of human ingenuity, sculpted into an art form. Most of our offerings are rare die cast replicas of the greatest cars ever built. Many of our offerings are long “out of production” meaning these models are not being produced any more, thus making our offerings usually “rare, but not perfect,” as our name implies. Rare, but Not Perfect stands behind every item we sell. We strive for Five Star Feedback. If Within seven days of delivery, you feel unsatisfied with your purchase and return it to us, A REFUND WILL BE ISSUED UPON RETURN OF that purchase. However, please understand, THERE IS NO REFUND ON any shipping cost (to or fro). Have fun and enjoy this great car hobby. All of our offerings should be considered relatively rare, out of production, previously owned models, and not delivered in perfect inner or outer boxes. If you have any questions about any of our offerings or notice any possible listing errors feel free to contact us by using the question icon button provided in our eBay listing. Asking our patrons for help and tolerance: We at Rare, But Not Perfect pack each and every order. Please understand that models can shift in transit which sometimes causes a model’s part to become loose or fall off. Usually, these parts can be snapped or glued back in place. Also, any small blemishes, fingerprints, or even scratches can, many times, be buffed out with regular car wax. We ask for your help in these isolated instances. This hobby we love centers around fragile artifacts. Remember, we are dealing with model cars here; they are just a little more sophisticated than the ones we admired as kids! A tube of super glue and some automotive wax or polish goes a long way in this wonderful hobby. Enjoy these miniature reproductions of some of the world’s greatest automobiles as a reminder that life is good, but not perfect. For your information, you will find some eBayers attempt to Grade their model’s condition on a scale similar to the one reproduced below: MINT (M) defined as perfect; none of our models meet this standard. If displaying a perfect car in a perfect box is critical to your happiness, then, you will be unhappy with our offerings; fair warning. It is very rare to find even in a brand new model direct from a die cast factory in perfect condition. Many brand new, unopened models will have minor surface imperfections and should be referred to as VERY NEAR MINT ( VNM) or NEAR MINT ( NM). VERY NEAR MINT (VNM) no more than two minor surface imperfections, such as small paint blemish, pinprick paint chip, or tiny part of a decal missing. NEAR MINT (NM) more than two minor surface imperfections. VERY GOOD (VG) model with signs of being mishandled, generally there should be no missing parts, but broken parts may have been glued back into position. GOOD (G) obvious signs of mishandling, but still a presentable model. There may be paint damage and broken or missing parts. POOR (P) severely mishandled, large surface damage, many missing or broken parts, should be considered suitable for restoration or spare parts only. RESTORATION/REPAINT (R) model not in original condition having been either restored and/or repainted. You will find some eBayers attempt to Grade the Condition of the Original outer factory Box the model originally came in. read more
