Condition




For "Telephone Book" Manga:

New:

Brand new. In original store bought condition.

Please keep in mind that condition is based mostly on the color pages' condition and not necessarily the entire issue, as black/white pages tend to be in better condition.

Near new:

Little or no noticeable wear/tear/defect.

Good:

Normal wear/tear; some minor scratch/indentation on cover; retains some cover luster and original page crispness. No other cosmetic/physical defect.

Fair:

Noticeable wear/tear, especially the spine; some major scratch/indentation on cover; little or no cover luster. May have sun/light damage (cover's color fade - usually spine only) and/or with slight to moderate warp ("C" shaped). Some rips and fold marks should be expected. Generally speaking, cosmetic problems fall under this category.
Poor:

Usually in good or fair condition, but has at least one of these major defects: water damage; no front and/or back cover; at least one page has started to tear out; many pages are ripped up/missing; severely warped; words written in and/or colored-in. Generally speaking, physical damage problems fall under this category.

Plus/minus:

My subjective opinion for borderline conditioned books. (e.g. certain items might be "near new", but also have one or more "good" qualities)


Miscellaneous:

When time permits, those that inquire a detailed description of an item's condition, I will try and honor such requests as best to my ability. However, please make such inquiry only when item condition is important. If I am unable to provide such detail, please bid accordingly.
