I second this. It's not like she just broke a finger, the statue is broken in three spots. The tail will never look seamless, let alone her neck area.
Get a full refund and wait for somebody to sell their statue on ebay, through social media, or on here. Don't settle.

In 90% of cases their CS is not acceptable.

The refund is a joke and for non-usa customer its hell to send statue back and the trouble to get the custom fee back. Sorry... but the CS of Sideshow needs a better management, also the spare part department. I will not writing names here but I talked to manager and it was a joke and didnt solve the problem

I actually love the piece and I don't want to return it to them as they mentioned if I wanted the full refund =( , because I won't be able to buy it again , the prices on Ebay are high so they offered the $40 , I asked them if they could remake the tail and hand , since her finger is missing from the box but they said they won't , even though I suggest that I will pay them more for that and they can keep their $40
and now I can't glue back the tail no mater what I use
@punisher2000 exactly , I'm using a forwarding service it took me a month to receive it and clear it from the custom

Not sure how much the teal version is on Ebay ...but fixing this broken statue may cost you just as much as getting a good one on Ebay.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

If I were in your shoes Orphen, I would rather bid on listing above on ebay and end up possible paying double before dealing with a broken statue.
Contact sideshow to get a full refund, put it down towards sometime else, and be patient.
Someone is going to eventually Ebay a teal version for a more reasonable price somewhere down the road.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

Finally PO'd Alice even though the Little Mermaid release was a mess. Fortunately my LM was "ok" it took some adjustment to sit correctly but nothing was broken. Hopefully Alice and Tink have better releases.

Out of curiosity I went and had a look at that eBay listing and as it says "Never opened still in the box with seal" Well good luck to that person that won the bid, cos personally I wouldn't take the chance with the reputation that this statue has got chances are that one's broken as well and you can't return it because it wasn't as described Lol
Coincidentally I have just finally received both of my Little Mermaid statues the teal one and the exclusive back from the States it's only taken 3 and a half months to get it right. With the teal one the base was returned it had a little burst bubble on the base very noticeable they did end up repairing it and now it looks OK, if you don't know it's there you won't even notice it.
And with the exclusive it took Sideshow 4 goes (YES) to eventually get it right I did send back 3 of them all for valid imperfect reasons and then for the fourth one they chose to take photos and getting me to approve them before they shipped it here to Australia
I don't think they made any profit on My Little Mermaid purchase Lol
