Condition Guide
Every pre-loved item has a story, and along with this comes some wear and signs of previous life.
Below is a simple guide to assist you when looking at our condition grading:
Excellent | The item is in like new, or close to new condition. No visible flaws to note. |
Great | The item is in overall very good condition, with minor wear or flaws. |
Good | The item is fully functional and is showing some general wear or flaws, but is still in good condition. |
Fair | The item is fully functional, but is showing visible wear and flaws. |
Vintage | The item is over 30+ years old. |
Vintage Great | The item is in great shape for its age, is fully functioning, and showing minor signs of wear. |
Vintage Good | The item is in good shape for its age, is fully functioning, and showing some general wear throughout. |
Vintage Fair | The item is showing visible signs of its age, and is fully functioning. |
Why have a separate condition guide for vintage items?
Vintage pieces are 30+ years old, and there is generally more wear that comes with this. Some examples are fading hardware, water markings, surface scratches, discolouration, dryness, slight cracking, odour, etc.
