I believe the photos 17-18 show stickers. There was a fold in the obi (see photo 19). Photo 20 has a horizontal crease. Some stained areas are shown. The yellowing appears whiter than it actually is in the photos. Furthermore, initial scratches and scratches from aging are difficult to capture in photos. This is a used item. Please understand the stains, yellowing, folds, and scratches. We appreciate your purchase if you understand that this is a personally stored item that has been inspected by an amateur.
