Mag quality question, Very good vs Excelent

[Torghn]

Is this just in reference to the quality of the finish or does it have anything to do with functionality? Specifically I'm looking at these two:

It just means what condition the magazine is as a whole. maybe a little scrape or two, light rust....but either condition sure work just as good as the other in terms of functionality.

I can't say for these guys, but...
I've bought used very good condition FAL magazines from DSA and I was not disappointed. Some finish wear is a given, the worst was about 80% finish and the best was next to unissued. There was one that had some numbers painted on it - no idea what that was but it must have meant something to the soldier who painted it there.
To me, VG condition is perfectly functional with light/moderate finish wear. Excellent would be in next to new condition with only very light/no finish wear.
Personally, I'd probably save the $20 and try the VG condition.
But first, run a search and see what IO's customer service is like. Never dealt with them, but it's good to know whether or not they'll work to make any mistakes right before you give them your money.
