THIS BUCKLE AND ITS ATTACHMENTS ARE IN THE SEALED, BAG WITHIN THE NEVER OPENED BOX THAT THEY CAME FROM THE GOVERNMENT IN.
NOTE:  THIS BUCKLE SET IS NOT ANODIZED SO BE PREPARED TO HAVE TO POLISH IT.  EVEN THOUGH IT HAS NEVER BEEN USED AND IS STILL SEALED IN ITS ORIGINAL PLASTIC BAG IT IS ALMOST 25 YEARS OLD AND THE BRASS WILL MOST DEFINITELY SHOW SOME SIGNS OF TARNISH UPON OPENING THE BOX.  THE LAST 3 PHOTOS IN THE LISTING SHOW WHAT THESE BUCKLES LOOKS LIKE WHEN THEY ARE FIRST REMOVED FROM THE SEALED BOX.  THE FIRST 4 PHOTOS IN THIS LISTING SHOW WHAT THE BUCKLE LOOKS LIKE AFTER BEING POLISHING  WITH "BRASSO" METAL POLISH.   A LITTLE BRASSO AND A LITTLE ELBOW GREASE WILL EASILY RESTORE THE LUSTER AND SHINE TO YOUR BUCKLE.
ATTENTION USMC MARINES !!!!!!!!!!!
DO NOT BUY THIS BUCKLE AND THEN COMPLAIN ABOUT HOW TARNISHED IT IS WHEN YOU RECEIVE IT.
DO NOT TURN AROUND AND GIVE ME NEGATIVE FEEDBACK BECAUSE YOU HAVE BEEN TOO LAZY TO TAKE THE TIME AND READ MY COMPLETE LISTING.  THESE ARE UNISSUED BUCKLES IN UNOPENED BOXES DIRECTLY FROM A GOVERNMENT SURPLUS SALE.  EVERYBODY ELSE ON EBAY IS SELLING THIS EXACT ITEM FOR AT LEAST .00.  THEY WERE MADE IN 1995 AND OVER THAT TIME WILL HAVE MOST LIKELY ACCUMULATED TARNISH TO THE BRASS.
THAT IS THE WAY IT IS.   DO NOT BUY THIS BUCKLE FROM ME UNLESS YOU ARE GOING TO BE WILLING TO POLISH IT. .
OTHERWISE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND BUY THE ANODIZED VERSION FOR .00.
