Did you try to spoon it out? I noticed it right away. It will probably alway be visible if you look hard enough but I think a spoon would make you have to look harder to see it

Well I would have hit it with a spoon first but yes, absolutely. MOST people just don't care the way you do (don't get me wrong, I hear where you're coming from)

If I find something damaged (like that pic, nothing crazy) when I go to ship I try to minimize but just send it along. If it's coming back to me I'm paying for it anyways. 99/100 times I never hear about it again

I had a cheap print that arrived that was just rolled and dropped into a tube with tissue paper over the image. At $60 I didn't care. If it is just minor edge damage, it has to be >$200 before I complain. I have dropped notes to noob print flippers telling them they are better off never taking the print from the tube.

It sucks when you explain to someone like they are a five-year-old that the craft paper needs to be THICK and extend 2 to 3 inches past the edges of the roll.
Got another one today.

It actually looks like Concert Posters Auction dot Com painstakingly cut the craft paper to be the same size as the print.
( It’s that strip of maroon paper )
Worse than most eBay pack jobs, but it made it. Really puzzled. This guy should buy a lotto ticket.

Incredible print. Very similar to a Sperry.
I don’t know why no one bid on it. I did not expect to win it.
Kisses…

Today’s eBay correspondence.:

Ok I will try my best. I bought it and it is still in the tube. Never been out. There is no way to put that tube in a big box and pack it full of shipping peanuts or what not. I really don’t want to take it out of the tube. Lmk
