Recently a buyer tried to tell me that "Factory sealed in original box" meant I was claiming it was MISB. 🤦‍♀️ When buyers begin to assign meanings that were never stated/intended, that's when it is time to look out for the falling sandbag from above. I tend not to describe the box at all. That is what the (new, sealed) condition is for. Unless there is any damage, then I'd note it. I never really know what people mean by MISB. Do they mean the parts are mint inside the box, or that the box is mint, or that the box is in a sealed shipping box? It means mint in sealed box. I think Mint is a plant that grows in my garden, it's nothing to do with box conditions. Nita Rae
