I purchased this item new and used it on my camera for about a month. After that, I removed it and stored it in a dark place. It hasn't aged much and I think it's in good condition. There are some marks like dents and fraying around the rings on both sides. As shown in the photos. Retail price was about 12,000 yen. Includes original box and tag. Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to used items.
