I've inserted new refills, but they are unused. The refills and the genuine leather pen holder lifter have also been opened once but are unused. I purchased this before the copper pink gold ring was discontinued and kept it stored in its box without using it. From the time I purchased it on the Rakuten site, there was a difference in the leather on the upper part when opened (image 5). There were also small scratches and scuffs (image 6). Please understand that this item has been stored at home. If you are looking for a perfect item or have any concerns, please refrain from purchasing. Due to the rarity of this item, please refrain from price negotiations and consider the current price.
