Since you're asking, I really think you shouldn't have two conditions
with such similar names. I think it will lead to confusion. Perhaps
they should be FS, NM, VG, G, Fine, and Poor instead. (VG+ becomes

This is a good point,
I call 'em either "flat folders" or "square folders", sometimes clarifying
with "EA"
