We apologize for any difficulties that you may have experienced so far in browsing through the
available items.  We wanted to provide at least one thumbnail scan of the cover or package for
each title or series of items.  We also planned to give a fairly complete description of the major
features or contents of each piece, but we had to save space and data entry time somewhere.
For these reasons a variety of short forms have been used.   Learning these may at first seem
time-consuming, but we hope that after you have familiarized yourself with the grading system
& the abbreviations you will find it all worthwhile. Certainly the benefit to your "informed buyer"
status will far outweigh the effort it takes.   We have also provided a way for you to keep these
open on your taskbar so you can check as you read.  Should you care to comment, feel free to
send a LOC by clicking on the CONTACTS spine.    Your feedback will be read and appreciated.
