Hood is not scratched. I don't see any defects on the item itself.Item has been used with little signs of cosmetic use, rim may have some light wear from normal use.
But it is not damaged in any way, no cracks or dents. This lens hood is fully operational and functions as intended. I would rate it an 8, on a scale from 1 to 10.
