Description: Toxic Vol 1Seoul Visual Works NewCondition 10/10 Assessment:A rare vintage Korean Artbook by the (now out-of-business) company Seoul Visual Works.This is a "new-old-stock" copy with manufacturer plastic wrap still intact. My buddy recently obtained this in a lot, and after some convincing agreed to allow me to cosign. From what I could dig up, Seoul Visual Works was a company that focused on anthology collections of Korean Artists and Illustrators. They are most famous for a 4 volume book set called: Apple Anthology Which did have an English translation distribution by Udon Entertainment. Of which have long since been out of print. But I do see these English versions pop-up for sale on online from time to time. Udon apparently had plans to also translate and publish the Toxic Anthology series into English, but for some unknown reason, the project was scrapped. So the only copies available are the Korean originals. It's difficult to find Korean artbooks like this in used condition, let alone New-Old-Stock after all these years. It's quite amazing actually! I have set the price at what I feel is appropriate, but if you are interested in trying to negotiate an offer, please DM me. •Note Regarding Condition:Please understand that I am giving my personal opinion on the condition. I have collected and trade in artbooks, visual guides, and other such animation & video game related art media for at least a decade now. But my personal definitions may vary from yours, so here is a break down: 10/10 is either perfect and/or new condition. 8-9/10 used, but if not for a few minor things, could be considered ranging from "Like New" to "Very Good". 5-7/10 clearly been used and has some notable issues and or damage, but is still within the realm of worth adding to your collection. Most of the time the issues for this rating are natural wear and tear due to aging. Otherwise generally considered "Good" condition. 3-4/10 if your not a stickler on condition, and just want to buy, condition is at least usable. But definitely has damage or problems. Think "Workable" condition. 1-2/10 if anything is in this condition, I am personally unsure why you would want to buy it, but, hey, as the saying goes, "One person's trash is another person's treasure." I've seen stranger things happen before in life where friends buy what I think is junk and make some awesome use of it, so I don't judge anymore. Just know that purchasing is your decision. Also please understand that while an honest attempt has been made by me or my procurement network to accurately assess the condition. Selling on Ebay isn't our full time jobs, so I ask for your understanding if something unexpected occurs. Unfortunately at this time I cannot offer returns, but in the off-chance something goes wrong, please contact me. Maybe we can work something out. •Note Regarding Shipping:I will do my best to ship out orders promptly, but due to my schedule, this generally means I will have to ship out on the weekends, so asking for your patience in this regard. Thanks! Also, like literally everyone, the inflation has hit me real bad in terms of shipping costs and packing materials. I opted to just list a base fee for shipping based on my experiences with how much things cost to ship. I understand how annoying the inflated shipping costs are these days, it's killer for me too. If the economy gets a little better, I will do my best to adjust the shipping prices accordingly, but for now I appreciate your understanding. *The listed shipping fee is for continental USA shipping (aka 48 states). If you are interested in purchasing something and are located in Alaska or Hawaii, please direct message me. Hopefully we can work something out. •Note Regarding Contacting/Direct Messages:Please don't hesitate to contact regarding questions or issues, prior to purchasing or leaving feedback.I will do my best to respond as prompt as I can, but again this isn't my day job, so I ask for your patience. I appreciate your cooperation.
