We do our best to industry standards when describing our books. Book Condition Definitions are used to describe both the book and the dust jacket, if applicable. Thus the word "book" may be replaced by "dust jacket". The process of grading a book is not an exact science; we do our best to describe defects that inform the customer about the conditions that impact the value of a book negatively. We don't always list the positive aspects of a book's condition.
Here are the following definitions we follow:
Note: There may be "+ (Plus)" or "- (Minus)" in a grade, which will mean that it is above the grade noted but not quite to the next higher grade for "+", and that it is below the grade noted but not quite to the next lower grade for "-", i.e., Very Good + (or Plus)/Very Good รข (or Minus). Which means the book is better than Very Good and the dust jacket grade is less than Very Good.]
