As with most vintage items it is to be expected that there

 will be some signs of wear. 

I will always endeavour to point out any major flaws or very

 obvious signs of wear.  Part of the charm of a vintage

 piece is that it has a history and is unique.

I use the following guide when assessing the condition of any

items I sell.  Please remember I am only human and may miss

 the odd small flaw.

Items are sold on an 'as seen basis'.  If you would like more

 information about the condition of an item before purchasing

 then please contact me and I will be happy to help.

Mint/perfect - this is self explanatory and is very rare

Near mint/perfect - Like new with no flaws to report

Excellent  - Has been worn but with no flaws to report

Very Good - Noted minor flaws easily repairable or already

 repaired, item is wearable 

Good - Noted minor flaws, may be repairable or already

repaired, item is wearable with care or after repair

Fair - Numerous noted flaws, some significant, possibly

 repairable/wearable

As Found - Damaged beyond repair but with value as a

costume or for study
