Brand New In Box, Unfired: apparently these mean different things to different people. In the last month, I had two transactions wherein pistols were described as "new" or "unfired" and valued as such by sellers, but showed obvious signs of use/significant wear in person. This post is not intended to accuse or assign culpability, but to inform buyers that this problem exists. In my recent experiences, an item's condition may not have been fully understood, to put it gently, or was a possible deliberate misrepresentation. The following link gives a good breakdown of evaluating a firearm, helpful for buyers and sellers alike: http://www.nramuseum.org/gun-info-research/evaluating-firearms-condition.aspx
