Shirt Condition Grading

 

Football Finery sell 100% authentic football shirts to football fans all over the world. 

 

The majority of the stock we sell is 'pre-loved', so has been owned previously, probably by someone who loves football shirts just like you.  However, we do occasionally stock new items.

 

New items are labelled as:

 

  • BNIB (Brand New In Bag) or
  • BNWT (Brand New with Tags).

 

 Used items are graded as:

 

  • Mint
  • Excellent
  • Very Good
  • Good 
  • Fair

 

Each item is individually assessed while being photographed for listing.  We carry out careful checks for signs of wear & tear, such as bobbling, pulls, tears, holes repairs, marks, discolouring etc. 

 

Many of the shirts we sell are over 30 years old, so we also take the age of the item into consideration too, when deciding on how to grade it.
