This item is new and unopened, but there are marks like circular patterns on the outer bag (see photo 1). I believe the contents are unaffected, but please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. I have kept it in a bag and stored it in a dark place at home since I purchased it, without ever opening it. I will take great care in packaging, but please understand that I cannot be held responsible for any shipping-related issues. Group Name: Snow Man
