It is all explained here: http://keh.com/faq/faq_grading.cfm Mint should be the same as LN but the packaging and papers may not be included. Unfortunately a large number blind people have taken to selling camera equipment on eBay. They are seemingly unable to discern any imperfections short of a bullet hole though the item being described. Any equipment that I buy described as mint that has any signs of use, I either return or ask for a reduction in price. So far no problems.
