No where on this order did it say I was purchasing it used. It arrived in a box and in that box was the actual packaging that had the label on it and whatnot that had been ripped open and folded together to fit in the box. The items were covered loosely in a plastic material. The knives were boxed up properly but the cutting board arrived so with a piece missing off of the edge and a large crack and the missing piece wasn't even in the box. Again no where in my order does it say used and I am very concerned. Even if it did say it was used I didnt pay for an item that clearly wasn't damaged in transit.
