Fine (FN): A Fine book approaches the condition of As New, but without being crisp.A book that is graded fine has had excellent care. The book may have been opened and read, any minor defects to the book or dust jacket must be carefully noted.

Very Good (VG): The most common grade given to a collectible copy, very good describes a book that shows some small signs of wear, but is still sound and attractive. Any defects should be noted by the seller.

Good (G): Describes the average used, worn book that has all pages or leaves present. Any defects should be noted by the seller.
