Actually, that's one of my pet peeves. I'm a certified bookaholic (I have about 1,200 of my own) and really hate it when the spines get broken, the pages get folded or (even worse) somebody write notes in them. If I could afford it I'd buy all my books new.
I guess to me it's almost a sign of disrespect to 'injure' a book (don't take that personally); it's just the way I was raised I guess.
