Questions people ask

Is the book in the photo the one I’ll get?

Yes. Every listing is a single copy, photographed as it is. Where you see a publisher’s cover instead, the listing says so.

Why does it say someone is checking out with a book?

When someone starts paying, we set that copy aside for up to 30 minutes so it can’t be sold twice. If they don’t finish, it goes back on the shelf.

Can you find a book for me?

Put it on the Book Hunt list. Meghan checks every sale she goes to against it, and you’ll hear first if a copy turns up.

Do you buy books?

Ask through the contact page and say what you have.

How do I pay?

By card, Apple Pay or Google Pay through Square, or by Interac e-Transfer. We never see or store your card number.

Do you have discount codes?

Sometimes, for newsletter readers. Enter it on the payment page.
