I recently puchased a pistol off of the internet advertised as NIB (not from TFL).
I received the gun today and noticed a few things.
1. It only had one mag. Now, this gun shipped back in the late 1990's with 2 mags when it was new. I only received one.
2. There were several handling marks on it and several scratches. The metal where the lower meets the upper (it was a Ruger Mark series pistol) showed several nicks.
I have PM'd the seller about item #1 asking about the other mag. I have not brought up the other until I sought advice. What would you do in this situation? What does NIB mean to you? When something is sold as NIB, do you expect to get everything that came with it originally? I am not whining, as perhaps I should have inquired whether the gun came with both mags.
Thanks for your input!
