Hi.
I recently sold over a thousand valves and being fair many were NOS but have suffered ageing. All were tested prior to sale and any duds were binned.
NOS means exactly what it says, the OS part has to be taken literally as its Old Stock, valves can be damp stored be in environments of heat and frost so cosmetically they can indeed look poor. So long as it is to spec I doubt you can complain.
Just ask the car collectors the condition of spare parts that are NOS some are covered in rust but otherwise are perfect.
Pity you didn't advertise for an EF9 a few months ago as I had three that were like new!!!
