I will continue to use the item until it is shipped, but I will disinfect and clean it as thoroughly as possible before shipping. Depending on the stock at the time, I will also include a set of dedicated coffee pods as a bonus. Please let me know if you don't need them. Since it's not something that will be moved around, I don't think there are many scratches, but it is a used item, so I would appreciate it if you could purchase it with the understanding that it is used. Feel free to leave a comment. Please note that this is a used item, so no claims or returns will be accepted.
