How many books do you get on a pallet?
It varies from one type of book to another. For a pallet of paper back books you get 1000 books. For a pallet of Cookery and Gardening books you would only get 500 as they are much larger books. To see how big our pallets are click here.

Do you guarantee you will deliver high quality books?
We offer you a 14 Day No Quibble Money Back Guarantee. So if you are not entirely satisfied with your consignment or you simply change your mind, then phone 01245 262 858 for a returns code.

You must send back the entire consignment. All returns are checked. Returns sent back without a returns code will be refunded minus £30. So always phone us before you return to ensure you get your full refund.

Every returned consignment is checked to make sure that everything we shipped to you has been returned before a credit is issued.

Are your books damaged stock?
No. All our stock is of the highest quality. We dispose of any books that do not meet our high standards.

Why do you not list individual titles?
We do not list individual titles because our stock turnover is far to rapid to give you details of exact titles.

What is the difference between A, B and C format paperback books?
A, B and C format paper backs are 3 different sizes. A format is the most common size paper backs and the most popular to see in book shops. A format is that is, 110mm wide x 178mm high.

B format is 130mm x 198mm. B-format paperbacks. Still quite popular.
 
C format is 135mm x 216mm. C format paperbacks are the least common.
 
Often publishers will publish the same book in A and B format paperbacks. Personally I would go for A format as these are the most popular because they fit easily into a handbag or brief case and therefore can be taken to work.
 
If you are selling your books over the internet then B format paperbacks are just as popular because people are buying by title rather than the aesthetics of the books.
