My Book Gradings
New: A new book, never used. As New (AN): Although a used book, it should appear unread with no flaws, just as when it was sold new. Fine (F): Should have no flaws, a perfect copy of a used book. Mint: Another term for Fine. Near Fine (NF): May show a small flaw, such as shelf wear, but nearly perfect and unread.
Very Good (VG): The broadest category for used books, this describes any average used book. May have small flaws, and has probably been read, but should appear overall clean and attractive. Good (G): Will probably have significant wear or damage, although is still intact. Suitable for reading, but not necessarily a good gift copy. The old saying in bookselling is "good ain't good." Fair/Poor/Reading Copy: Heavily worn or damaged, a poor book will be readable but not attractive. Binding Copy: This will be the complete pages of the book, but the binding has been broken or damaged to the point it will need professional rebinding
