No price reduction. Ships same day if purchased by 2 PM. I had it in a cage for about a week. The condition is almost unused, with only slight fuzzing. The outer box has some damage, so please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. The included hex wrench has rust. I will wrap the outer box in bubble wrap and ship it as is. Thank you for viewing. Kitten Scratching post Nekoichi Brand Adoption Cage Pet Rescued cat
