Purchased this second hand from a BST group. The black spots and the mark on the inside came when I bought it. I have not used the planner, but I think the previous owner has. Previous owner’s house was also smoke free. My house is pet, smoke, and perfume free. I ship within 2 business days. Gillio dust bag and the pen pictured included. I do not accept returns. Please ask all questions before purchase. Offers welcomed.
