I've been storing it in the cupboard. My personal impression is that there are no noticeable scratches or stains, but please check the photos. This is a used item that has been in someone's possession, so please check the photos for details. Please refrain from purchasing if you are a perfectionist or overly concerned about minor imperfections. Thank you for your understanding. I can add more photos, so please let me know in the comments if you'd like to see more. There is no original box, so I will wrap it in cushioning material and pack it for shipping. I am also selling the cup only. Bulk purchases are also possible, so please let me know in the comments! *Price negotiations are welcome.
