Thread has stains. There is a feeling of use, but it can still be used. Please understand that this is a used item. When listing, I cleaned off any removable dirt and applied care cream. You can use it right away and feel good. No case. (Everything in the photos is included) I will pack it as compactly as possible and ship it in simple packaging. This is a genuine, authentic product purchased from a used brand shop. (Please see my profile)
