Welcome to the home page of one of Australia's largest retailers of remaindered books.

A book is 'remaindered' when its publisher judges that its sales velocity has slowed to a point where it is no longer viable to keep the book in stock, and sells it off to the likes of us. We scour the globe for remainders, and then list them in our catalogues, which we print and mail every four weeks. If you would like to receive our printed catalogues, please Email Us your name and address.

We now have three full catalogues available to browse as well as various special selection catalogues. To browse our catalogues click on the 'Shopping' button at the top of this page. Here you will be offered the option of searching for a particular item or just browsing the catalogues. To browse select the category which interests you and then select the catalogue you want to look at (there are at least three catalogues to choose from)and then click on 'Browse'. You will see a list of titles in that category and if any title interests you, click on it to see its description and a picture of the book.

If you prefer, you can read or print out the catalogues or just those categories you want. Just click Print Catalogue for this service.

We offer an email alert service whereby we send you an email whenever a new catalogue is posted on our web site. If you would like to receive an email alert, please Email Us.

The mailed version of our catalogue always has a chatty introduction, which is reproduced here for our most recent catalogue - February 2012.

Last month was unseasonably cold here in Canberra. As we thought longingly of sandals and short sleeves, we were warmed by a customer who informed us she was the third generation of her family to order from us. How very happy that made us! Come on the rest of you! Give a copy of this catalogue to your next generation and ask them to pick out their birthday present. Sometimes you'll be surprised at their interests.

Our famous sale, when older stock is sold off at $2.00 per paperback and $4.00 per hardback takes place at our Canberra warehouse 3-5 February. All the information about it is on our Truck Sales page. It is personal shopping only. We hope to see many of you there.

Romantics among you who enjoy the sentiments of Valentine's Day (Feb. 14th) might like to give or receive these titles. 512 La Bella Lingua: My Love Affair with Italian, the World's Most Enchanting Language; 399 100 Great Operas and Their Stories; 26 Wonders of the World: Piazza San Marco; 169 101 Dishes to Eat Before You Die; 264 The White Cockade and Other Jacobite Tales; and 433 Do Gentlemen Really Prefer Blondes?
