Purchased for my child. I think it was used 2 or 3 times, but it was stored in the shoe box after outgrowing it. There appear to be almost no scratches, but there may be some overlooked scratches or stains. As shown in photos 2 and 3, there is rust on both metal fittings. Photo 6, on the right side, has rust. It cannot be removed by wiping, so please purchase only if you understand this. There is no odor. It will be wrapped in bubble wrap and shipped in a paper bag. Thank you very much. m(._.)m
