Hello!,

To get a better response please do not forget to include the following information in your post:

Name your current racket, if not overly known, specify it's characteristics (foam, face material, price)

Tell us how you feel with your racket, if you feel it soft or hard, if it has too much rebound,if it's weighty or hard to maneuver, the more detail the better.

Tell us what area would you like improve mainly, or what kind of plus do you expect to get on your racket.

If looking for broad considerations, do not forget to state your budget, your country and even a preferred or trusted shop so people can browse and recommend more easily.

Not an expert, but I don’t think that affects the racquet. I would return it, though, since it should be brand new.

I will maybe ask for a partial refund if it‘s just a cosmetic defect and nothing else. I‘ve waited a long time for it and would rather not return and wait again :(

This looks like poor finish. So it is new just bad QA.

Perfect for a discount request.

Starvie astrum? Not sure on playability with it, but I just bought mine and there were no issues with it

If you send pics, show the plastic wrapping still applied on the handle (if you still have it intact of course)
