My daughter used this racket in her first and second years of elementary school. There are some paint chips on the frame, but no cracks. The inside bumper is also clean. As shown in the photos, the grip of this Arcsaber has been shaved down to make it easier for a child to hold. The grip is in good condition, so I've left it wrapped. If you're concerned, please adjust with an underwrap. I also made a cardboard box for the racket by hand. It doesn't look great, but I made it to ensure safe delivery, so please understand. This racket is recommended for children who are just starting badminton. I have two previous transactions of rackets on Mercari. I received good reviews, so please feel confident in your purchase. If you would like additional photos, please comment. Price reduced from 15,000 yen to 13,000 yen.
