Oh maan

,
I just received this
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...1212&rd=1&rd=1

and against description, I immediately found one hole on the collar crease, lining is coming off at the vent and what bothers me most is the two bubbles on the front breast area.
Dry cleaner says they might go away but mostly get worse.
I didn't really expect a perfect coat but at least one true to description.
What is wrong with these sellers, don't they look at their stuff or just trying to sell junk? Or am I too blind ?
Anyways, I'm on a budget and it would probably ok until I can afford something better. I don't really want to refund, his feedback also explains a lot, should have stayed away.
Shipping was 4.20, he charged 10

Anything I can do about the bubbles?
Cheers.

If it's fusing gone bad, there's nothing to be done. It happens, unfortunately. I'd contact the seller.

But don't feel too bad. My latest eBay purchase came in with a huge, and I mean huge, stain all over the right lapel. It's at the cleaner now, and I imagine it will be going back to the seller once the cleaner can't get the stain out. Disgusting.

Sorry for the stain.

I was hoping that there's some kind of iron on glue to temporarily fix the bubbles?!
I would hate to wait for the seller to accept a return or go through ebay to get it refunded.
Plus I'm out drycleaning $5 and shipping.
