My point is, when it comes to classification of condition, I think it best to rely on the description to give details.
Frankly, Sid, I've never really understood why NEW or USED is considered to be a condition. An item is NEW until it is bought, then it becomes USED. It's sort of like virginity, one is until they are not. There isn't really any degrees of it, as far as I know.
