Overall the item would have to be called fair-good condition. There are some issues...First off, at some point in the items 30+ year history, it was exposed to some moisture...most likely originating at the box bottom with the compents still inside the box. It has caused some staining and waviness, most noticeably on the box bottom, then extending to the M&TA, the Geomorphs, and the Rulebook in that order. In addition, the Geomorphs have been cutout. The box itself has wear...mostly at edges/corners on the top, and some crushing to the top as well as some torn and taped corners. The dice have been used and show wear. Good news is the item is fully complete, accurate and there is no marking or writing on any of the components

Oh yeah...'cos it clearly shows on the photo's in the advert !!!Check my revised item for an explanation. I don't mind constructive comment's but I don't take shit from twats like you. Mind that it's not just the magazines that get hole punched.

(muppet=daft/silly/stupid)good luck with the auction!Alps. my advice for future listings is to describe the conditions more clearly and then you won't have any problems.
