Quoted from cconway84:I got a NIB CGC AFM SE yesterday. Opened it up and immediately saw a flaw in the paint at the three bank motorized target area by the saucer. It looks like it was touched up poorly by hand then cleared. Feels smooth so definitely under the clear.
Saucer also has a chip in the front like from a ball hit. New in box game with 0 plays.
What would be a reasonable expectation for addressing these issues?

Not trying to be a jerk or anything here, but honestly you can't even really see the paint flaw in that top picture, and it's barely noticeable in that second picture, and that's waaaaay zoomed in. Even the top picture is a closer view than you would have from the playing position. I know you want perfection, but honestly it's really not bad at all in my opinion and anyone that wouldn't want to buy the game because of that is far too anal-retentive in my opinion.
But then again, I'm a used buyer and I don't really mind cosmetic issues. I had a Mousin' Around that played awesome, but looked like crap and I still loved it. The only reason I really care about cosmetic issues is because I know so many other buyers seem too, and so it can make it harder on the resale. But luckily, there seem to be plenty of buyers like me out there too.
But hey, it takes all kinds to make a world, so if it bothers you then do what you think is right. I just personally think it's not too big a deal compared to other issues that you could have.
