How we rate condition:
Rating | What It Means | Example |
Mint / New (M, Fine, Mint in Box [MIB], [NIB],10) | A never used item in perfect condition with complete packaging basically everything original straight from the store | Aunt Sue received a beautiful silver platter as a gift, never opened it, & stuck it in her cabinet ..…fast forward 50 years and here it is for sale. |
Pristine or Mint (Prist., M, Near Fine, Like New, 9) | The item is perfect but no longer has the original packaging or the original packaging is less than perfect. Possibly used but must appear to be new. | Aunt Sue used the platter on her 50th wedding anniversary, hand washed it gently, and then put it back in the cabinet. |
Excellent (EX, 8) | Used, but barely, very minor signs of wear. The wear is a normal part of aging or so minor that it’s barely noticeable unless closely inspected. | Aunt Sue liked to bring out the platter once a year for her annual Christmas party so everyone could use & enjoy it. |
Very Good (VG, 7) | Looks really good but has a few defects, such as a minor scratch or tiny dent. | If you weren’t looking closely, you might miss that Aunt Sue’s platter survived Uncle John’s Super Bowl LI party. |
Good (G, 6) | Used with defects. More than a small number of scratches, dents, or maybe color loss, missing parts, and so on. | Aunt Sue liked to have the girls over every few weeks for hot wings and potato wedges. |
Poor (P, 5) | Barely useable or collectible, if at all. Lots of damage &/or heavy use. Can not be fixed only used for parts or scrap. | Aunt Sue took it to the homeless shelter to pass food around. |
