Book Conditions

As new

Description: Clean and crisp, but missing the absolute pristine "sparkle" of a copy straight off the printing press. It may have been handled, and moved a few times, but the spine remains un-cracked. 

On occasion, we may receive a perfect copy, which is still in mint condition.

Gently used

Description: A well maintained book that has been read once or twice with care. It remains tight and intact with no loose pages, but it will show subtle natural signs of handling, such as faint thin creases along the spine, some minor curvature, and slight page yellowing. 

Well read

Description: A book with plenty of character that has clearly been loved by previous readers. Expect visible spine creasing, softly worn edges, or page yellowing typical of vintage or mass-market paperbacks. The text is always fully intact, completely legible, and ready for many more trips to the armchair.
