All in excellent working condition with original box and packaging. The fingernail profiler has come into contact with the grinding wheel so has an area of abraded surface which doesn't affect its performance at all (see last photo). The remainder is excellent.

Total from Yandles, £222.96

For sale at £100

Can be collected or can pack and post by courier at cost.

Payment by cash on collection or card / bank transfer.

I'm out all day so it's difficult to check but I'd say less than£10.
 
It looks like around £7 through the Post Office but that increases to £12 to include compensation for the full value. I haven't done a full comparison of other carriers.
 
Provisionally sold subject to collection / payment. Thank you for the interest shown.
