The item is the main unit only, and there is no noticeable damage to the exterior. Inside, the tray does not open and close smoothly, but with a little assistance, it is not a problem, so we will leave it as it is. The linear tracking search is blazing fast and the pickups are fine. However, please understand that CD players of this age are designed to be susceptible to sound skipping. If that, please let us know within 3 days you got the item.
