// Condition analysis
Cover shows strong gloss and sharp, square corners with no visible whitening. Spine appears tight with no stress lines or ticks visible in this photo. There is a faint diagonal reflection/crease-like line near the lower-middle of the cover that may just be plastic sleeve glare rather than an actual crease—worth a closer look.
