MINT or LIKE NEW (LN) = Appears to have never been used, but does not have it's original box.

NEAR MINT (NM) = Maybe a very light scratch or scuff here and there. You would have to look pretty close to tell that it's not new.

EXCELLENT (XC) = Slight scratches, scuffs, shelf wear, etc. Still very display-worthy.

VERY GOOD (VG) = Shows more signs of usage. Cleaning scuffs, heavier scratches, maybe a light chip or fleabite, etc. Still very usable and presentable.

GOOD (GC) = Shows heavy signs of usage, dishwasher etching, scouring dullness, 1/4" or larger chips, etc. Note: The only items that we sell in this condition are hard-to-find.

FAIR or POOR = We do NOT sell anything like this. It's not worth it to you or us.

Please Note: Regardless of condition, your glassware or Corning Pyroceram purchase will always arrive clean and ready to use. You will never receive an item with burnt-on residue or stains.
