Unpriced copies, probably for the export market. Fine in Fine Dust Jackets, a nearly perfect unread copies save a hint of toning to the jackets, probably because of the white color.

The first signature hardcover printings are a nice alternative, the second non-deluxe edition to be released in a trade first printings of each title after the first edition of 1997 and the adult editions of 2004-7. NOTE on book club editions of HP boooks : There are a lot of book club copies of this and other Harry Potter titles for sale which a lot of sellers believe are "first editions" because they have some issue points which are similar to the first trade editions.

HP and the Sorcerer's Stone. These copies lack the diamond design on the boards, they lack a printed price on the dust jacket, and the boards are a dark red color.

They have no premium value and if someone tried to resell such a copy to a first edition specialist, it would be declined most likely. NOTE: All modern books with dust jackets come with dust jacket covers.

It is much more difficult to change feedback once left. A Word on First Editions : 95% of my offerings are trade editions, and 90% of those are first printings. In general I do NOT sell bookclub editions or cheap reprints like Modern Library except in rare instances which would be explicitly stated as such. In general, I also DO NOT sell x-library copies. If the book is both a first edition AND a first printing, it will be marked as "first edition" in the Item Specifics under. Otherwise assume a later printing or a later edition. They typically take 1 1/2 to 3 weeks. It is best to find out your country's policies in this regard. I try my very best to accurately describe condition.
