I purchased this lovely unique hand painted corgi land rover off the bay. I paid a five figure sum for it (£005.00)
(ebay pics)




I was over the moon till I noticed a spec of dust so I washed it in soapy water. well I was rather annoyed to find the paint coming off




well no turning back now, so I had to clean it all. maybe wont look too bad when the dust settles on it?





but then I noticed it has loads of damage should I send it back ?

Daz, i feel for you! Its so annoying to find out, that high expectations get distroyed!

What a disaster! you must be gutted now that hand painted masterpiece is no more and you are left with a worthless near mint model, something you had not planned on owning. Yes, send it back for a full refund...

Ghosty.

Or send it to me - I'm not quite that sophisticated

I think I'd best keep it as a reminder to myself to be more careful .
Good job it wasn't a Rembrandt id have to do a mr bean
