they are brand new, some have plastic covering, but others have been smell tested by consumers at the store, I tried to get as many as I could with the plastic still on, but they all have the scents working properly, just purchased a day or two prior to auction opening, thanks for asking, I usually state that fact...my bad
the auction clearly says free shipping, I posted that update because it included your answer re: tracking, along with some other unasked questions, didn't mean to confuse you, sorry
