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.

Summer of '16

The summer of '16 opened with storms of biblical proportions, and this was an ominous backdrop to the June 23 referendum. However, move aside Denmark, something was rotten in a lot of places. As events transpired, Brexit proved a sideshow to a wacky season that included coups that couldn't shoot straight, no-you-don't presidential and parliamentary elections in which the real contest may have been between the virtual and the actual vote, and giving new life and meaning to the term "turducken." A populist was inaugurated in East Asia, and an impeachment cycle was completed in Brazil, neither newsworthy enough to pass the cut for this story. Apols Brazil, but you got a whole book last time. Brexit was a sideshow, but it was my sideshow, and it wasn't the only sludge I had to deal with during the summer of '16.
