Default Another damaged item. Sad... What would you do in my position?

Hey guys. I always feel sad whenever I receive something important that comes damaged. I'm sure many of you know what it's like.

I've bought a Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 Press Kit. These are numbered individually, limited to 1000 copies and come with the promo version of the game. The item was listed on eBay as Like New, the seller is from the UK and has 100% positive feedback with over 700 votes.

It came very well packed in a sturdy box with styrofoam but as soon as I opened the package I noticed a badly damaged corner (the bottom left corner of the lid). Looking at the outer package, it could not have been made during transit. Just to make sure, I went to check the auction and see if there was any information about this on the auction. However, there's no single reference to the damage in the auction and I just realized all the pictures do not show that particular corner.

This is the link to the auction:

This is my picture of the damaged corner:






What's your opinion? Do you agree the damage was already there? I'm very convinced it was but still...

I don't know what drives someone with such a high feedback rating on eBay try to deceive potential buyers in order to try to get a higher price for a rare collectible. I wouldn't be capable of doing something like that to anyone on purpose, but I guess honesty is hard to find nowadays. For multiple reasons, I feel sad. I usually get pretty mad and irritated, but this time I am pretty calm and sad with that feeling that I was played for a fool.

What would you do in my place? I love the item but this is not cool. I'm used to go through s*** like this but right now I'm not in the mood and decided to hear some opinions first...

Thanks.
