- Id like to get a second opinion on this, I was fortunate enough to pick this little gem up for $5 today! (Day after Christmas)

- Looks to me like you got a steal! I don't have any idea what Terry and the Pirates books are selling for but I am guessing a pretty penny and this one is in very nice shape, all things considered. Certainly it has issues, mainly the big vertical mark starting in the first R in Terry. There is a stain on the top center of the front cover, some corner blunting issues and some stress marks on the back of the spine. The grading tool I use rates it as a 4.0 but I would bet that would still put the value of your book at well over your investment!

- I agree with Tenzil. It is definitely worth more than the $5 you bought it for. Good find. I'd say it is around a 4.0, also.

- Thank for the feedback so far. And a note to the condition of the sides when I bought it, it was in a literal stack of books shoved between boxes at a auction house so I think they got tossed around be for I got there. Which is too bad really.
