These books typically suffer de-colouration, dust marks, shelf wear and tear, knocked edges and spines. However, be assured, these books are not used books, the spine is not cracked. They are just not stored properly at the publishers warehouse. Over the years we have had no option but to sensitise our readers to this probem.
