What do our book descriptions mean?

FINE (F): Pristine - as one would expect to find in the publisher’s warehouse

NEAR FINE (NF): Very slight fault or two, such as light rubbing. As good or better than you would expect to find in a new bookstore

VERY GOOD+ (VG+): Minor faults - at a glance as good as you’d expect to find in a new bookshop, but at closer inspection showing some signs of wear

VERY GOOD (VG): Moderate faults but still looking essentially sound and tidy. Appears secondhand not new

VERY GOOD- (VG-): Some obvious faults detracting from the attractiveness of the book

GOOD+ (G+): Damaged but still a good reading copy

GOOD (G): Good that it exists, but it is certainly damaged and may be incomplete
