The following information is about Condition.

Condition Defined

The state of preservation of a book. The primary grades are VERY FINE; FINE; VERY GOOD; GOOD; FAIR; POOR. The grades GOOD and VERY GOOD are often further discriminated with the appendence of a plus or minus sign. For example G+ is better than good, but less then VG-. The whole condition grading process is highly subjective, and that is why experienced book buyers look for detailed descriptions beyond the basic condition grade. Indeed: In my opinion a description of "VG" without further explaination is rather incomplete: the fact that you will find me as guilty as others in this matter from time to time not withstanding.
Take a look at the Book Grading page at Firsts Magazine's website
