'Want' lists...If you don’t immediately find what you need, we will certainly entertain searches for your ‘wants’. You can use the form in
Offline Search Service or email a list you have already prepared. It doesn't have to be too specific, just give us some idea of an acceptable price range, and try to indicate the urgency of the search (you need it yesterday, 3 copies by the end of the month for your book club, or you just want it whenever but really cheap, etc.).
Cheaper by the box...Shipping Costs have become the bug-a-boo of mail order commerce, with the highest costs charged for single item orders. The more items bundled in one parcel, the lower the per/item cost. One book shipped across North America can easily cost $15 in postage, but a box of 15 shipped to the same destination will likely cost less than $60—only $4 per book. Save your shopping cart and return at a later time to continue browsing. Order when you accumulate enough choices to make the shipping seem almost reasonable (see Shipping). In short: “the more the merrier”...keep this in mind as you shop.
Links...You will find links here to a number of interesting websites. Many of them offer special deals to introduce you to their products and services. Visit our
Links section for more information about these sites and the offers.
Contact us...gently...If you have questions or comments please feel free to contact us, but if you phone or fax please remember that we are in the Pacific Time Zone just like Seattle and Los Angeles—three hours behind New York and Toronto. 9 a.m. on the East Coast is 6 a.m. out here in the sleepy rainforest. Give us time to get up and make peace with the day and we’ll be more likely to appreciate your call.
Thanks!
