Been used for a couple years but it is still good as new! No scratches, dings, or anything that will effect its performance. I've changed batteries regularly since owning it, and kept the batteries out during the summer. If you want to start getting into BC stuff without spending $300 - $500 while still being smart about it, then this is the beacon for you. I'm only selling it because I have multiple and I'd like this beacon go to a good cause. I can ship or if you're in SLC you can come pick it up.
