Hi, I will spot and share to everyone here, a "tip" to avoid the mistake that happens to me one.

Not sure if it can happens the same with "digital editions (e-Book)" ...
But it still the same over the "Covers Pictures, so I guess yes, it cut happen. But I guess, it will be more difficult for sites like "Amazon, Walk*Book, etc. ..."

So, the thing was when I was looking to buy a physical edition of the LN "Didn't I say..." through e-Bay ... the "sheller" where announce in the tittle "light Novel" but in the Advertise Picture where the Manga cover one.
I was specting the "Light Novel, but instead received the Manga.
is when I catch and spot the "slight" difference in between both versions. ( see attached image bellow)
The attachment Didn't I say... Covers Differences...-.png is no longer available

As you can see.

The "FIRST, & Fourth" Covers are from the English Ed, of the Light Novel.
TIP: on the Number: it DOES PLAIN. :smoke:

The"Second & 3th" are the covers from the "MANGA" ( 2dn, from English Ed. and 3rd from Original Japanese) :o mnom: :soul: :soul:
TIP: also the volume "NUMBER", on the Manga it came inside a "DOT / or full up Circle".

So, whats is your experience!? have it happen also to you? Expecting to receive a Manga... but received instead the LN edition? ( or viceversa...)

PS: May I can ask to an Admin /Moderator if can "Pin up" this for avoid get forget over the many new daily new topics . THANKS!

That’s terrible. It hasn’t happened to me. I don’t like Manga so if I question it might be Manga I just won’t buy it. I’ll look somewhere else to purchase it.

I don’t usually buy from eBay because it’s unreliable to receive what you want.

I’ve received several purchase items from eBay that were not what they advertised. Luckily only one refused to refund. EBay refunded me instead though so I didn’t lose out.
