Pre-Owned Condition Reports

Pre-Owned Condition Reports

As most of the models we sell are pre-owned, it’s important for us to make clear how we rate their condition when listing them on our website. So here’s a quick guide to what the various terms mean:

New
This one’s easy – a brand new, never-used item.

Mint
A pre-owned item that has been test-run only, in perfect condition with no apparent wear.

Near Mint
As above but with minor (often unnoticeable) imperfections, such as tiny scratches or (small) missing details.

Excellent
An item with one or two minor cosmetic faults, such as a missing piece or neat repair. We’ll always explain our reasoning for an ‘Excellent’ rating.

Very good
This can mean an item has a number of faults but is in overall very good condition. Again, we’ll always describe any issues.

If you’ve seen a model on our website that you’d like more information about, please give us a ring or drop us an email, and we’ll do our best to answer any queries you have.
