Please also read my profile. Instant purchase is OK. My lifestyle has changed, and I no longer have time to enjoy embroidery, etc., so I am selling this. I opened the package once when I purchased it to check the contents, but there are no particular stains or anything. The outer bag has scratches and scuffs. I will ship it with the hook part folded as shown in image 5. It has been stored at home in a dark place, but I have two cats and one bird. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. It will be shipped via Nekopos. Thank you for looking.
