What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

From the master of gothic fiction: 27 tales of suspense, horror, and mystery.

Few authors' names conjure up such an air of ghoulish terror as that of Edgar Allan Poe. The best of his chilling horror stories and other suspenseful tales, 27 short stories in total, are presented here in one fantastic volume, providing an ideal introduction to this master of the macabre. Although best known for his classic gothic horror tales such as "The Pit and the Pendulum," "The Fall of the House of Usher," and "The Premature Burial," he also wrote mystery thrillers like "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" and "The Mystery of Marie Roget," and curiosities like "The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether."
