Not sure what some of these terms mean? Look it up in our glossary.
ffep : Front free endpaper. Generally, the first page of a book.
F/VG : Fine condition book, with a Very Good condition dust jacket. Fine approaches the condition of As New, but without being crisp. For the use of the term Fine there must also be no defects, etc., and if the jacket has a small tear, or other defect, or looks worn, those should be noted.
Very Good can describe a used book that does show some small signs of wear - but no tears - on either binding or paper. Any defects must be noted. (condition definitions from AB Bookman's Weekly).
