How
does your trade policy work?
We give 30% of the cover price
in trade credit for paperback fiction in excellent condition
and within 6 months of publication. We give 15% of the cover
price for older paperbacks that we take to sell inside the store.
This amount of trade credit is filed in a ledger under your last
name and may be applied to the purchase of our books at their
regular discounted prices. Credit may not be used for any of
the special sale prices or for the outside budget books.
Do
you buy books?
Yes, although we are very selective
and give less than we give in credit. Recent paperbacks (within
6 months of publication) will be purchased at 20% of the cover
price or 30% in trade credit. At times we will be low on books
in a certain category and will pay 10% of the cover price for
paperbacks in that category.
How
are your books priced?
All books inside the store are priced
inside the front cover. This price is usually 50% of the cover
price or lower, with the exception that no book is priced below
$1.50 in the store.
What
are the books on the front patio?
These are our budget books and
are always on sale: 15 for $3.00; 7 for $2.00; 4 for $1.50 or
$.50 each.
What
are your special sales?
Please refer to the SPECIALS
page for complete information on our many sale days and discount
programs!
Do
you carry any books for children?
Yes, we have a large children's
section with a wide variety of books available for all age groups.
From.....Dr. Seuss to Goosebumps.....Babysitter's Club to Nancy
Drew, and we're constantly receiving new titles every day!
Do
you sell books online?
Unfortunately no, we do not
sell books online. We entertained that idea, but there are so
many books constantly coming in and out of our store, its hard
to stay on top of it all, let alone keep an up-to-date inventory
on our site. The SEARCH function to the left only searches the
newsletter - it is not a book search (we don't have an online
inventory).
However, we do offer our Book Again Request
Service, where
we will watch for up to 3 titles of your choosing for up to 3
months. If and when your book comes in, we will notify you and
hold your book(s) for up to a week. Please ask us about this
service during your next visit.
