I have stored the item in an OPP bag and then in an album after purchase. There are no scratches or stains, but please understand that this is a personal check and storage. The item will be shipped with a sleeve, cardboard reinforcement, and water damage protection. Shipping will be via standard mail, so tracking is not available. ● Instant purchase is welcome ● Bundling with other items is possible Please feel free to comment if you have any questions. Transition to bundling sales: December 27th
