The item has been kept in a sleeve and stored in a dark place. When shipping, I will take measures to prevent bending and water damage, and will send it in a bubble-wrapped envelope. I believe the item is in good condition based on my own assessment, but to prevent any issues, I will consider it for play use only. Please refrain from bidding if you are overly concerned about its condition. Shipping will be via Mercari's tracked delivery service. Returns are not accepted to prevent product replacement. Thank you for your understanding.
