Math Teacher Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 First thing - this book must be the king of bad wraps. I believe this is the worst I have ever seen. Second thing - 6.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But 6.5 looks to be the correct technical grade from the standpoint of wear. The Lions Den 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possible. I'd have to track which AV 24s, AS 33s, AS 40s, FF 48s, etc. most show up with wrap issues. All books are subject to the occasional mis-wrap/mis-cut, but these do tend to be seen quite a bit more than others. greater numbers on a whole, of course, would be one reason for that.
