I realized when I purchased this book that there was some wear on the cover- some of the gold foiled print was rubbing off, something I did not notice when I bought the copy from someone on Facebook Marketplace, nor did I notice when I took the photos for this Pangobooks listing; I only noticed it when I inspected the book to determine the "condition" for the Pangobooks listing. Fortunately, this is actually a book series that I read a few years ago, and had another copy on my bookshelf (I absolutely LOVED the series). I take EXTREMELY good care of my books, so I replaced the copy I personally own with the one I bought off of Marketplace to offer the best quality of this book for the buyer. My copy that I am selling has very minimal wear- NONE of the gold swirly foiling on cover is rubbed off, no spinal creasing, only some extremely minimal corner wear.
