An ill suited definition for an item desperately advertised for sale on any sort of public forum such as ebay, Craigslist or comparable sites. Usually this POS has more scratches and dents than a demolition derby jalopy. For some reason buyers find this description appealing when seeking to acquire an item at a bargain basement price. Perfect condition is generally used when all other advertised adjectives have failed to secure a sucker buyer.

Get the perfect condition mug.In vino veritas is a Latin phrase that means "in wine there is truth."
The expression, together with its counterpart in Greek, "Ἐν οἴνῳ ἀλήθεια" (En oinōi alētheia), is found in Erasmus' Adagia, I.vii.17. Pliny the Elder's Naturalis historia contains an early allusion to the phrase. The Greek expression is traced back to a poem by Alcaeus.
Herodotus asserts, and it is likely enough, that if the Persians decided something while drunk, they made a rule to reconsider it when sober. Authors from Herodotus onwards, however, have dared to add that if the Persians made a decision while sober, they made a rule to reconsider it when they were drunk (Histories, book 1, section 133).
The Roman historian Tacitus described how the Germanic peoples always drank while holding councils, as they believed nobody could lie effectively when drunk.
The phrase is often continued as, "In vino veritas, in aqua sanitas", i.e., "In wine there is truth, in water there is health."
