certainly don't think you can complain at €10. Anik - even with the burst bubble it must be worth that. I don't know how deep this cavity is, but there is the possibility that you can get someone to polish this, at least to the extent that you will loose the sharp edges - of course if it is too deep then you will always have the a slight depression on the glass. I don't understand the comment that this happens due to dusting - admittedly, I never dust since my pieces are under cover always - but can only think that some people dust with a sledge hammer.
Question, how many GMB members have actually burst a bubble (only a bubble) on studio glass - I don't mean dropping and shattering a piece though carelessness - when dusting? Of course I may have to eat my words if you all use sledge hammers. For us, now, of course it is conjecture only to say where and when the damage occured - it may well have been immediatly after manufacture, it may equally have been caused by the person from whom you purchased the piece. Does anyone know, as a matter of interest, if Mdina sell/sold seconds or rejects? However, you have learned a very valuable lesson, re a seller's description and our assumptions. Generally, (aside from items which need in law to be 'fit for purpose') if something is sold without qualification and a Buyer assumes condition to be o.k. and asks nothing, then probably you don't have any recourse when you find a fault (within reason). At least by asking questions and getting a description in writing, you can then decide whether to make a purchase. "Experience is the best teacher", as we say. If you want to make a profit, I will give you €15. for it
