Cosmetic condition rating is 6/10 - Presentable condition overall - still an attractive piece of gear. Under bright lights and critical examination, we can see that there are several blemishes to the front faceplate, especially along the top edge and the left and right top corners. The case top shows several scratches and some wear as well as nicks to the right edge. The cord from the power supply is frayed and has some electrical tape on it. Also of note - there are several screws missing from the top of the case. Please view all of our high-resolution photos for full details of the cosmetic condition as well as exactly what is included. If something is not clear, please inquire with us prior to purchase.
