    DEFINITIONS
  • “First” thus refers to the first printing of a new edition of a book.

    • BOOK GRADING GUIDE Because hobbies have different words for describing conditions, I'd like to tell you how I grade the collectibles I sell.
  • Books are graded with the ABA standard in mind. That means books range from G (good) to Fine.
  • I don't use a VFN or any form of Mint to describe a book.
  • A book that is NF (near fine) can also be thought of as almost new.
  • A full list of typical conditions ranges from: G, VG, VG+, VG+/NF, NF, to FN
