No rips or stains. Does show some pilling but it can be removed. Sold as is. Stored in a non-smoking, cat free home. Item will be shipped in a poly mailer bag or USPS padded envelope to reduce cardboard usage and also to reduce shipping costs for the buyer. I also try to get your packages as small as possible to make sure that it can be put into most mailboxes so that your package doesn’t have to be left at your doorstep while you are at work or away from home. If your item is larger or needs to be protected by a cardboard box, I will use a box that is as close as possible to the size of the purchased item. Please recycle any packaging that you receive with your order.
