NeverOpened treats packaging as evidence. The goal is to preserve information before making an irreversible change.
Start with all six sides
Capture a full orientation set before close-ups so later details have context.
Shoot seams and corners
Macro photos should show where wrap folds, tape begins/ends, labels lift and cardboard fibers break.
Include scale
A small ruler or evidence scale makes dents, tears and sticker size easier to understand.
Keep originals
Do not destroy metadata or overwrite your best source files with edited marketplace crops.
For high-value material, category-specific references and qualified specialists matter more than generic internet checklists.
