"Hurt" Books

Special Discounts on slightly hurt books 

When we receive books returned from stores and distributors that may have been slightly scuffed, or with a sticker, ding or slightly-faded cover, we offer them at a big discount. We call them "hurt," but other than minor cosmetic damage, these are perfectly good books — almost always clean and unmarked inside. In many cases they are in like-new condition! These titles are available at roughly half the cover price. Available 1st-come-1st-served; best condition books are shipped first. And, when available, a new dust jacket for hardcovers can also be provided so they'll look new on your coffee table!

You are supporting authors! Did you know that sales of used books in bookstores or online do not result in royalties for authors? Except when you order here. Because we published these titles, we include sales of our hurt books in royalty accounting. This purchase supports the creative work of authors and publisher, unlike sales of remaindered or used books elsewhere.
