I have never seen anything take 3 weeks yet, but it can happen. Chaffing along the outer edges. The back book read crease has a slit of about 7/16". Loose fit. The book shows signs of age or wear through slight cover/spine edge tanning, spine/cover edge/corner rub, light corner push, spine upper/lower edge rub/push, page edge rub, scuffs, or scratches, page edge soil/staining/age staining, a few edge nicks, and yellowing of pages.
