CONDITION AND CLASSIFICATION OF MODELS AND BOXES
It is stressed that buyers must satisfy themselves as to the condition of any item or Lot by careful examination.
In order to assist U.K. Toy & Model Auctions Ltd. the following Condition Classifications have been devised and only represent an opinion. No warranty is implied or intended by the provision of this information.
MINT – Item in perfect condition EXCELLENT – Careful use with only minor imperfections GOOD – Obvious imperfections, with more use FAIR – Major imperfections with heavy signs of wear POOR – Many faults or in a destressed condition PLUS (+) after a classification is better than the classification suggests VARIOUS CONDITIONS (a combination of any two, or more, of the above) PLAYWORN, SUITABLE FOR RENOVATION etc. are also terms which may be used where appropriate.
BOXES are described in the same Condition Classification. For example after describing a Lot the Classification MINT/BOX GOOD will indicate the item is in perfect condition but the box has obvious imperfections.
For guidance purposes only we have included an estimated price against each Lot. This is only our opinion of what each Lot may realise.
