I wanted to just warn people on here about the seller eloverabu on ebay. I bought a white Tamagotchi P's from them and they sent it rather quick but the item was listed as NEW and when I opened it up it was clearly used.The tamagotchi's box was already opened and in poor condition, it was yellowing at the bottom, and it had scratches on the screen. I have a video of my unboxing actually because I wanted to recored the experiance and it quickly went down hill so I will be sending that to ebay and the seller if I can. I opened a case on ebay asking for a partial refund or replacement item but I doubt I will get either we will see. So yeah just wanted to let you guys know to be warry of that seller.

here are some images

Some plastics naturally yellow over time. It also is where they leave it... they could have just used it a few times. Another thought, maybe it was an adult selling a kids toy because its not being played with anymore. Kids aren't always the most careful witth toys, unfortunatly...

Its possible the mail got to the box and had a bit of damage caused. It may not be of fault to the seller.

Noticed a Free Shipping? Not always the best choice.

I was looking at this again... You should always be wary of "stock" photos. I don't know if they had other photos or not but still somehting to check. That is definately a stock photo. It can easily be photo and bypass checks, even if they don't have a camera or valid description.

Oh my fudge! I have a bad experience with a seller as well. Buuuut.. This person forced me to buy something from her and started to blackmail me. ._. ;-;

 
the buttons were very loose and used feeling and made a weird clicking noise tho so I am pretty sure it was used (i had a new p's before the buttons felt stiff and didn't make that noise) and the scratches on it kind of were not very great and yeah I had thought that at first maybe it just naturally yellowed but it still was falsley advertised because the description said "new and unopened" and the box was open when I got it

but you are very right I should have been more careful when they had no actual pictures of the product

and @natuuure

I am sorry that sounds really awful

 
but I already returned the item and finally got a refund so it all got sorted out but probably will not buy tamagotchis from ebay if they have no pictures from now on

 
So glad everything worked out for you. I second the suggestion about "stock" photos. I only buy from sellers that provide pics of the actual item that you are interested in buying. Then look at each one very carefully. I've rejected many items upon closer inspection of the pics. Sure, I missed out on some good deals, but something better usually comes along if you're patient.

 
I find each tama has slightly different buttons... some deals are not worth it.

But if this is handled, this topic can be closed.
