Wholesale Purchasing

Shalako Press Policy

Bookstore And Reseller Book Orders

Wholesale purchasing is handled through Ingram, but retail bookstores and fund-raisers are welcome to order copies of any available Shalako Press titles directly from us.  We thank you for giving our great books valuable shelf space in your store.  Here is our ordering policy.

1.   We offer a 40% discount off the standard retail price of the trade paperback.  Retail prices are listed on both our websites and with BowkerLink.  Shipping costs are additional and the responsibility of the wholesaler.

2.   We require prepayment for all orders, and accept company check, MasterCard and Visa through PayPal.

3.   Orders are shipped within seven (7) days of the confirmed, paid order.

4.   Shalako Press books are returnable up to 90 days after the publisher’s invoice date for a cash refund.  Returns must be accompanied by your packing slip listing quantity, title, author, original invoice number, and invoice date.  The wholesaler is responsible for shipping costs.  Books should be returned to our shipping address, P.O. Box 371, Oakdale, CA 95361-0371.

5.   To qualify for the cash refund, books must arrive at Shalako Press in good, resalable condition.  If they are not resalable, do not return them.  In packaging books for return, they should be kept clean and immobilized.  We recommend stacking books in a plastic bag and using Styrofoam “peanuts” to immobilize the books.  Books shipped loose in oversized “jiffy” bags almost always arrive in damaged condition and will not be accepted.
