The largest and second smallest ones are both quite nice - just dull and lightly stained with no obvious major marks to note. The second largest has a little shallow 3 x 4 mm chip to the side lip and is dull and stained otherwise. The oval Mutual Store example has 3 or 4 little chips to the lip and a chip and little fracture to the side and back base. Some dullness otherwise and looks OK on the shelf. The small clear one would be nice with just light dullness but has a large 13 x 5 mm chip to the front top. Not a bad little group of chemists from this company. Grade: N/A Estimate: $15 - 25
