Our Product

Examples of our product:

BookDepot.com is one of North America's largest sellers of remainders and overstocks, also known as Bargain Books. Bargain Books are new, unread books that the publisher sells-off in volume to reduce excess inventory. Sometimes the publisher printed too many copies, in other cases bookstores purchased too many copies and have returned them to the publisher for credit. The books therefore have been handled a few times but are still in excellent condition.

The publisher may place a mark on the edge of the book to identify it as a Bargain Book. This ensures the book will never get returned to the publisher for credit. In most cases the mark is a small line or dot, however sometimes it is large. Product with excessive marking is not sold through our web site.

Since the publisher marks each book by hand and often not in the same location, we are unable to provide information on specific markings on each title. Below are two examples (circled in white) of typical publisher marks that may appear on our books.

Our entire inventory is listed on this web site. The inventory quantities are shown in real-time. Each time an order is completed, our inventory is reduced accordingly. This assures viewing of accurate information and results in high order fulfillment rates.

We stand behind our product. We guarantee the product you receive is structurally sound and good for reading. However, due to the nature and discounting of our product all sales are final with no returns accepted.

Book Depot Blowouts

From time to time we select a portion of our inventory and set them aside as Book Depot Blowouts. These books will have a minimum purchase quantity per title and a greatly reduced price. However, due to the discounts we offer on these titles we do not spend any additional time in product preparation (dusting, sticker removal...).
