Thank you for viewing this item from among many others. Novel: Dragon Quest, Volume 2 (Lower Volume) By Hideo Takayashiki ENIX Bunko (Alcohol-sanitized, lightly cleaned) This item was passed down from family, so I do not know the details of the purchase date (whether it was new or purchased as a used book). This item has been stored at home for a long time, so as shown in the photos, there is yellowing, discoloration, and damage overall, including the cover, under the cover, and inside. There are also stains like those in photos 18 and 19 in several other places. I have inspected the inside by flipping through the pages, but please consider that there may be changes in paper quality due to aging, such as discoloration, fading, yellowing, sun damage, stains, spots, dirt, folds, scratches, tears, and damage to the corners, which are typical of used books. I have notified you of any noticeable issues in the photos, but there may be oversights. Please enlarge the photos and check the condition. (If there is similar damage, I will show the most noticeable parts in the photos. Please assume that there is similar damage in other areas as well.) There is no problem with reading the book, so I would like to offer it to those who are okay with it as long as they can read it. Also, there is a smell typical of used books. Although it was stored in a non-smoking area, the person who purchased and used it at the time was a smoker, so please consider that there may be a tobacco smell. This is a very old item, published 30 years ago. If you can understand that this is a used item that has been stored at home for a long time and understand the condition of the item, please consider it. I have taken the photos to show the colors as close to the actual item as possible, but the color of the item may differ slightly depending on the type of monitor and lighting. Thank you for your understanding. We plan to ship via anonymous delivery and will drop it in the mailbox. We may also use recycled packaging materials, so please understand. It was stored in a place without smoking or pets, but there are smokers and pets in the house. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned.
