How Much Does Damage Affect Value?

I purchased a "mint" amp, cost roughly $1100. Well, packing was inadequate and the unit suffered corner damage on the faceplate during shipping. The damage is not a deal killer for me, but it is there. The unit was originally a 8/10, now I guess it would be a 6/10, though other than this blemish it is quite nice with next to no sign of wear. What would be a fair de-rate to the value?

get your money back. the damage is not your fault or responsibility. the insurance settlement is between the seller and the shipper. move on and get what you've paid for. offering you 20% when you have to buy another amp to replace the front is not acceptable.
