I would say that yes; the book is ED. However, if you're using the abbreviated form and grading the entire contents of the game with one grade, I would not list the entire contents as ED. If everything else was F (for example), it might bring down the contents to VG or G (it's subjective, of course).
I only grade contents as a whole, so I don't get into grading disks separately from sleeves, but I would certainly mention the sleeves as missing in the notes and would use MMC for the box contents. Since you're already going a step further and detailing out specific contents, I'd say it's up to you to decide what to apply the scale to. As long as it isn't misleading, do what you want.

I have a copy of Ultima IV where the Book of Magic has been written in. Spell components were underlined (in pen) and many pages have a series of letters written at the top (e.g. "A, D, E"). The last three pages, which should be blank, have been written in a great deal. Does this make this book ED? Another question: should disks and sleeves be graded together or separately. This same package has the original disks with wear, but they're not in the original sleeves. Should I list them as "Disks: G/MMC"? (I'd probably put a note after that explaining the rating.) Also, is there not an official page for the MobyScale at MobyGames.com? I can't find one and Google returns the ones at YOIS and GOTCHA. -- Lee K.
