Instant purchase OK. Used in a soroban (abacus) class. Soroban training strengthens brain function! The beads move smoothly, and it makes a pleasant sound! The surface is clean, but there is a mark on the back where a name was engraved. The condition of the product is subjective, so please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to such things. Item is the abacus itself only. *Please check my profile. 13
