New condition.
The scarf definitely has to be rinsed in a sink in cold water before use to get the factory-smell and excess ink off of it.  Just use your thumbnail and water to get the sticker off of it.  Don't try using a knife or sharp object -- you'll pull the strings.  I am definitely pleased with it.<br />There may be a few loose strings that need to be brushed off.
