If you live in the USA it means the film has gone around the world only once for the grey market. This means it has been handled a lot. If you live in Europe, it will go around the world twice. Once from Kodak to the off shore distributor and then back to B&H before once again it goes to you across the Atlantic. The American film probably goes direct from Kodak to B&H, since they would probably buy it in sufficient quantities.
