Status message:
All books are paperbacks in good shape -- most of them read just once -- from a non-smoking household, unless noted otherwise. If a book looks like it might not make it through the next read, I will recycle it instead of putting it in my inventory. But, to quote another member, "these are all used books folks, don't expect them to be like new...all books listed are readable, i.e. not falling apart, missing pages, covers etc. Most used paperbacks will have some degree of creasing of the spine and or slightly curling edges of the cover etc. I consider this normal wear. Only if I consider the wear excessive or if pages are yellowed excessively etc will I list it in the condition notes. Bottom line, if you want a new book go buy one."

To belabor the point further, if you want to be like the solitary dude who gave me negative feedback AND returned his book because the book I sent had creases on the spine, a guy who has "dealt with books all my life and know condition like the back of my hand I understand what new, like new, very good, good and acceptable means", try Amazon or Barnes and Noble. I don't need your moochness.
