If you are a representing an online store or a book store, museum, gallery, university or other entity and would like to set up a wholesale account, please email us. We will get you started. We will ask you to create an account. We will manually convert it to a Wholesale account.
We encourage individuals, collectives, groups, and others to start their own book selling initiatives. To this end, we offer most Temporary Services and Half Letter Press books and booklets at our wholesale rate of 40% off for our booklets and books. You can also order wholesale copies of most books by Public Collectors and Breakdown Break Down Press for the same discount. There is no minimum quantity for wholesale orders. We encourage you to try a range of publications and order as few copies at a time as you like. Feel free to ask us to make recommendations.
Some ideas about buying at wholesale rates:
Are you going to be selling your own stuff at a book fair, 'zine fair, art fair, craft show, concert, information exchange, or other event? Want something else to sell so that you have more stock and more ways to make money? Consider purchasing some copies of our publications at wholesale.
Do you know a bunch of other people who might like some of our titles? Go in on a purchase together and everyone can save money. This is a particularly good idea if you live overseas where shipping becomes cheaper with larger orders. If you can't find a buyer for every copy, barter the extra publications with friends for other things you might like. Do you want to use one of our publications with your students in a class you are teaching? We are happy to give price breaks for educators on the titles we publish.
All we ask is that you please not sell our publications for more than we do. We give you 40% off with the expectation that you'll raise the prices by 40%. We try to keep our things cheap enough so that everyone is able to buy them. This often makes them easier to sell too so keep that in mind!
