What does condition really mean?
Trastevere Books attempts to describe all of its books accurately. The various abbreviations will tell you what condition the book and the dust jacket are in at the time of sale. Most books are either New, in Fine, Very Good, or Good condition. Abbreviations will appear as N/N, F/F, VG/G, G/F, etc. The first letter indicates the condition of the book, the second the dust jacket. (N) New: This designation is used only when the book is in the same perfect condition as when published. There must be no defects whatsoever. No marks, library stamps, bumping, etc. (F) Fine: All books described as fine are almost like new, but not quite as crisp. There must be no defects. If there are any jacket defects, these must be noted. (VG) Very Good: Shows some small signs of wear, but no tears to the binding or pages. All defects must be noted. (G) Good: The average worn book that has all the pages present. All defects must be described in detail.
