The item is stored in a sleeve and kept in a dark place. Upon personal inspection, it appears generally clean. However, there is an initial scratch on the back, running from the center down. It's a thin scratch that is only visible when held up to the light. Therefore, the price has been reduced. Please check the photos and purchase if you agree. If you would like to see additional areas, please send a message, and I will add more photos. Water and crease protection will be reinforced. Shipping will be via standard mail. If you prefer Mercari delivery or Letter Pack, it is possible to change, but there will be an additional fee. Combined shipping is also possible, so if you send a message, I will create a dedicated listing for you. You can also purchase immediately without commenting.
