I purchased this a long time ago at the doujin shop White Canvas, which was in Akihabara at the time. In the third photo, the string is quite long, so I used to tie it. There is also some discoloration due to deterioration. This string can be cut off and replaced with something else. Photos 4 and 5 show the back side, which has some stains. It's not very noticeable when viewed from the front, but please be aware of this. Please understand that this is a used item before purchasing. Please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a pristine item.
