Sold a guy a shrinked "Hitchhiker's Guide", which he proceeded to
open (the horror!  The HORROR!!), and found there was no fluff
inside.  Original shrink, had the sticker to prove it.

Just tell him the situation called for him to put on his
peril-sensitive sunglasses and then he wouldn't notice.

OR

Tell him that, in order to make it up to him, you'd already included
"no tea" in the package free of charge.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Sorry; I thought this was implied, but we can't assume anything in defining
this.  I have made the modifications and the scale now stands at version
0.2.6.  When the scale document stops getting modified for a week or so, I'll
post it to the list again so that everyone has the most recent version.

 Note that, for all forms
 suggested above, there was only one grade listed for Mint Sealed items.
 This is because all pieces of a sealed item must also be in the same
 condition, since the item was never opened.
 
 This now needs to be changed.  First, add some examples of items
 sealed but not mint.  Then say something like this:
 
Note that, for all forms suggested above, there was only one
grade listed for Sealed items.  Since the item was never opened,
the condition of the contents cannot be determined.  (Although
you can make some assumptions from the condition of the box.)
 
 Just because the box is worn, doesn't mean the items inside are.
 Likewise, a MS box may turn out to somehow be missing items or to
 contain incorrect items (like the manual/disk/prop from a different
 piece of software).  My wife bought (what appeared to be) a brand new
 copy of some recipe software and there was a copy of Calendar Creator
 inside, too.  Nowhere on or in the box did it say anything about
 Calendar Creator.

 Actually, one more little nagging change?  Could we eliminate the hyphen
 altogether, making it "FP"?  (Just so there's no chance of mix-up with "F".)
 Either way works for me, though, LMK your thoughts.

I agree with that.  Done (but I'll spare the list a resend until a more major
change happens).
