I'm glad you had a good experience with the seller.
Here's my beef: The seller states, "Near MINT original as found condition with only very minor traces of wear and slight abrasions. Overall rated 9.5 / 10. NO RESTORATION! Paint is 100% ORIGINAL! Please wait for all pictures to load as they illustrate the condition very accurately."
However, if you look very closely in the picture, you'll see a vertical hairline crack at top-center. That's more than "minor traces of wear and slight abrasion."
As for the chip on the ear of your stein, was it described by seller?
Yes, there are possibly so nice steins he has, and I may want to bid, so I'm glad to hear of your experience. Maybe the hairline crack is an oversight. To me, that makes it a 6.5/10 rather than 9.5/10.
