Condition Grading Scale

We use the following grading scale to assess the condition of our kits:

  • BNIB - Brand New in Bag: The kit is completely new and has never been removed from its original packaging.
  • NWT - New with Tags: The kit has the original tags still attached, but the kit’s condition may vary.
  • Mint: No noticeable damage, wear, or aging; unworn condition.
  • Excellent: Most kits in this category have very minimal signs of wear or damage, such as a couple of bobbles and or pulls, small stains, a few loose threads, or minimal damage to kit details. It also includes kits that have been worn but show no noticeable signs of wear.
  • Very Good: Most kits in this category show noticeable signs of wear, such as a few bobbles and pulls, loose threads, stains, or damage to kit details, but nothing too substantial that will greatly affect the appearance of the kit.
  • Good: Most kits in this category have moderate signs of wear or damage that are likely to affect the kit’s appearance and possibly its integrity, such as substantial loose stitching, pin-sized holes, moderate damage to kit details, stains, and likely many bobbles and pulls.

Fair: Most kits in this category have severe wear or damage that greatly affects the kit’s appearance and integrity, such as significant loose stitching, holes, severe damage to kit details, large stains, and several bobbles and pulls throughout the kit.

Please note that all of our kits are used unless specified otherwise and will likely show some signs of aging. We will do our best to photograph and note all of the damage that we observe in the products description
