There are no major scratches or graffiti, but there are some minor stains and signs of use. The stickers on the left and right sides are peeling off! Please check the images. The sound and operation are fine, so I think it can still be used! I plan to ship it with the batteries in, but please comment if you are concerned. This was played with by a child, so please understand. The box is included, but the instructions have been discarded. The push bar is unused. It will be shipped in a box with simple packaging.
