Bookseller Terms

Discounts

 1-4 copies: 20% Discount, returnable for credit.

 5 or more copies: 40% Discount, returnable for credit.

Titles may be mixed.

Books can also be ordered through Ingram Books, but at a short discount and nonreturnable. The short discount prevents Amazon and other online booksellers from undercutting our bookseller friends. The books being nonreturnable when ordered from Ingram prevents Press 53 from suffering a catastrophic loss from excessive returns.

Events

We offer special terms for author events, festivals, and conferences. Please call and ask for Kevin at 336-770-5353 or email Kevin Watson.

Shipping

The cost of shipping to bookseller is charged to the bookseller at $5.00 for the first book and $.25 for each additional book. This usually works out to the bookseller and Press 53 splitting the cost of shipping.

Bookseller pays shipping charges on returned books unless they were shipped in error by Press 53. Returned books will be credited to the bookseller’s account. No cash refunds.
