We have brought this set back from the ashes to full glory - the bricks were in a bundle of other bricks and we have done a full itinerary and built it for photographing, all pieces now accounted for. Some bricks will have inevitable come from other sets as it the nature of lego when sets are stored all together but this doesn't affect anything for the building of the set, some parts were dusty and we have looked to wipe any dust off that we have seen, may have missed the odd spot though. All stickers are applied and intact, and as this was once a used set the odd brick may have a small mark or dent but certainly nothing bad as in chewed!!
Overall I'd say the set is now in a good, clean condition with some signs of use. The Manuals look and feel used. They feel quite thumbed, there are small edge tears on some pages, the front cover of manual 1 has been taped, manual 2 is in pretty good shape, manual 3 has been taped to keep the cover from coming away from the spine. There is no writing or rips on the pages and they are more than adequate for building the set. It is supplied in a Gift Box, not intended to be a replacement for the original box but to offer a safe & secure place the set can be stored when not in use. The box has been brought new especially for this and has a uniquely designed colour print on its lid of the set, it offers a lovely presentation for the set & perfect area to store it in. We have completely disassembled the set and bagged it according to Books, so there are 3 bags (plus figures). There were a few extra parts we didn't use so we have placed them in Bag 1.The Dementors have the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry surrounded, and an epic battle between Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort is looming.
