Starman Collector in Training lifetime member Posts: 31 My Collection	Posted: March 25, 2018 3:16:57 pm So I bought my first CGC graded comic on ebay. A Wolverine #1 graded at 9.4. So I just got it, opened up up the box and the thing has one corner where the case is clearly cracked heavily (both sides with an almost inch long crack) and 2 other corners where it also had what looks like small stress cracks. I googled this and it looks like this seller sent me a tampered with comic? It also looks like the thing had moisture under the case right in the middle of the comics cover. Other then that the comic itself looks like its in great condition. This is pretty bad right? Any advice?

If the inner sleeve wasn't opened, you are ok. You can get it reholdered for $12-15 plus shipping both ways. The seller should offer a refund or pay for the cracked case if it was not disclosed before you bought it.
