Near new open box - Microphone only (no box or manual). Never used for dictation , dictation system it was purchased for was only compatible with the older powermic III and never updated to allow use . Looks like new , has sat unused but protected in a drawer since purchase 10 months or so ago ( climate controlled office room in desk drawer , not exposed to sunlight, excessive humidity , or other elements during storage ) . Some tiny tiny scuffs if you zoom in on pictures or in person look extremely closely - just from moving it around when taking out of box I imagine , not noticeable unless inspecting for such things (images are representative ) , but otherwise no significant or normally noticeable blemishes , like new in appearance and unused for dictation . Should function like new , unit was plugged in and tested quickly and was recognized by computer immediately . Did not test further with dictation since device is otherwise unused (will of course accept returns for functional problems or if not as expected on arrival - please ensure compatibility with your system prior to purchase )Returns accepted on case by case basis
