Nice work USPS on ruining my /10 Patch Auto :(
Well this was in my mailbox when I got home from work:
Instantly I thought very lovely thoughts.
Then I got to the goods:
Got my hopes up that maybe it wasnt damaged....so i took it out of the top loader:
There werent any creases on the back just the front
But of course, they care:

Just an apology, no offer to refund anything, or pay for the goods.

It will accomplish nothing to go to the PO. You can ask the person you got it from to fix it and that is about it. It is the resposibility of the sender to ensure the item is delivered unharmed. They could have avoided that by simply marking it "fragile".
I have had to make up for this type of postal damage from the sorters they use. The word '"FRAGILE" usually (not always) avoids this type of damage with USPS. The postal clerks are required to ask you that for a reason.
You can still do this when you use Paypal or Stamps.com to print labels. Just write in red that simple word and it saves this kind of heartache. Good Luck. I know when something is PC, condition isn't everything.

I never asked, but does it cost to mark something Fragile?

I disagree, the sender (whether or trader or seller) appears to have done everything correct. Ive received items marked fragile stuffed in all directions into the box just to fit it in there. Paypal and Ebay may said its the sellers fault via their standards, however common sense says its not, and I would not file a claim. PO fault all the way which gets you nowhere without insurance.
