Thank you for viewing! Instant purchase is OK. We offer a discount on shipping for bulk purchases. I opened it once out of curiosity, but I immediately put it back in the bag and stored it. I don't think there are any noticeable scratches. To prevent any issues, please purchase only if you are okay with displaying it. I think the size is larger than you expect. (That was the case for me) Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about initial scratches, etc. m(_ _)m
