About This Item
DJ: has rubbing mainly to the edges and a removed sticker lifting Memphis from the spine(this title runs the length of the spine so 2 inches is affected), minor soiling, and minor chipping to the spine ends and some corners. This DJ is very fragile and easily damaged on many. Nice GAP FILLER, better without DJ(store it).
