This item is brand brand new and was never used. It did sit in a drawer for a while so you can see the black markings along the bag and the paper part where the stapling is that says cooking with poo however, this does not take away from the actual item, looking inside the bag, the book looks in excellent condition. Of course you know it hasn’t been out of the bag so I don’t see, anything wrong with the cookie cutters? They look perfect as well if you have any questions or need any more pictures I’m happy to help. I hope that you will love the side as much as I do. I just don’t have anyone to use it with anymore. Thank you for looking.
