The book did not come with a band from the time of purchase, and there were scratches on the back. After purchasing it new online, I stored it with a clear book cover and removed the cover for inspection. The yellowing appears whiter than it actually is in the photos. Furthermore, initial scratches and scratches from aging are difficult to capture in photos. This is a used item. Please understand that there may be yellowing, scratches, and corner folds. We will offer a combined purchase of two books for 899 yen. We appreciate your understanding that this is a personally stored item that has been inspected by an amateur. Thank you for your purchase.
