I kept it in the capsule it came in when I bought it, and stored it in a place away from direct sunlight. There are some print scratches from the beginning. Please see the third image. When I ship it, I will wrap it in bubble wrap and put it in a bag to prevent it from getting wet. *I live with a cat. I will be as careful as possible when packing, but please refrain from purchasing if you have allergies or are looking for a perfect item. If you have any other questions, feel free to comment. ❀
