That BaT car looks okay in photos, but any paintwork/repair of CYM I’d want to see in person before purchasing. That’s a color that just isn’t ever captured correctly in photos, and I can’t imagine matching the paint in a repair is the easiest.

Easier to match/repaint BB or VR since they're basic colors, but something that has mica in the paint is easy to tell since you need a certain amount of mica and for a CYM i had repainted years ago, its significant. I had to get mine resprayed because the PO took it to a shop that did a terrible job and used maybe a bottle cap full of mica on the whole thing. However they mixed it or their spray technique was.... MASSIVE orange peel. I felt bad for the guy.
But as long as it looks good upon inspection and the repair itself was minimal (hoping the seller has photos of the damage), wouldn't personally bother me for the price. Its a CYM after all. Of the 3 I have owned, and the several others I've seen at Sevenstock, its ranks pretty high up there.
