We have world wide publishing contacts and can source books wherever they are available at reasonable prices.. We welcome Librarians and offer extra discount and after hours appointmentsWe also send books at a reasonable rate all over Australia for those who do not wish to carry their purchases home.
Our stock is a mix of new titles, as-new remainders and slightly shelf worn books.
Remainders are un-used books in pristine condition, which we purchase directly from the publisher. Originally, the term 'remainders' was used to indicate books that ' have remained' at a publisher's warehouse after other copies had sold. Today, remainders include many excellent, recognizable titles from quality publishers, all at heavily discounted prices.

"Publisher-returns" (hurts) refers to books that, for one reason or another, were returned to the publisher's warehouse from the retail outlets. These books generally become available somewhat sooner after their publication date than remainders do, but are often in shorter supply. Publisher-returns cannot be considered brand new books, but we are careful to sort out any damaged copies. Publisher-returns often have a mark, such as a dot or a small line, on the edge of the book.
