There's a standard bookseller vocabulary, with terms like Fine, Very Good, Good and Poor to assess condition (to see these terms defined, click on the link above). Most of my books are in Very Good or better condition, and I tend to overemphasize their flaws so that any surprise is a pleasant one. Feel free to ask questions, and if the book isn't in the condition described, you may return it for a full refund. |

If I don't have the book you seek in stock, I will retain your book search in my wants files and email you when I do have a copy for sale. If you don't hear back from me immediately, that probably means I don't have a copy right now. But fear not, I keep extensive files and never stop looking.... so send me your request; you've got nothing to lose! |
