NOTE ABOUT DESCRIPTIONS
Every effort is made to give a full and accurate picture of the condition of each book. There is an overall assessment of condition ("Like New", "Very Good", "Good+", "Good"", etc.), followed by a description of the dust jacket, where one is present, then all blemishes are recorded. The grade of condition accorded to any book is, of course, a matter of the appraiser's opinion, but "Like New", for instance, can be taken to mean that the book looks virtually as it did when first published. "Very Good" is a notch down from "Like New" and usually denotes that the book has been read by one careful owner over the age of fifty-five. "Good+" denotes that the book has been read by several careful persons of similar maturity. "Good" means what it says, volume is evenly worn and in tact. "FAIR" means not very good, "Poor" means that, except for antiquity and/or subject matter, the volume is suitable for a fireplace.
NOTE ABOUT RETURNS
Every effort is made to give a full and accurate description of each item, but satisfaction is guaranteed and full refunds will be given upon the safe return of item(s) wherever the condition has been grossly misrepresented.
