Several light scratches and wear to faux leather finish in several places, particularly on the base where there are also four deep scratches, the largest is 2mm. There is one deep scratch on one end measuring 2cm (see close up image).
The metal findings all have surface rust except the zips. There is a break in the piping in three places (see close up image). Moderate wear to the interior.
The zips are in good condition and excellent working order. The main zip had been repaired. I recommend not opening it all the way to end to keep it from breaking again.
