The issues in this listing are in four different categories of condition.

New These issues are identified in the drop-down list with (N) after the date but before the title. They are still in their original wrapper, unopened and unread.

As New These issues are identified in the drop-down list with (A) after the date but before the title. They are in as-new condition. They may have been read but there is no apparent indication this.

Read These issues are identified in the drop-down list with (R) after the date but before the title. They are in the category "very good", meaning that the magazine has obviously been read but that it is fully intact, none of the pages are torn or damaged in any way other than having been folded back while being read.

Acceptable Some issues are in less satisfactory condition and these are shown as "acceptable". This can mean that some pages are damaged, rumpled or torn, most usually just the cover. However, all pages are present and readable. These are identified with (X).

I offer back issues of The Economist from the years 1998 to the present.
