Local Book Pickup
We are happy to accommodate local pickup of your book order, if you don't need or want to have your books shipped to you.
This is a great option for customers who live in the area and want to save on shipping costs, or who need their books quickly.
Our offices are located in Richmond, California, in the San Francisco Bay Area. To arrange for local pick up, please discuss this with your customer service representative.
Pricing
For most orders, you can get accurate price quotes by using the pricing calculator on our website.
For projects with custom options, or for larger quantities (over 500 books) we may need to create a custom quote for you.
There are a number of factors that affect pricing, including:
- Type of book – Softcovers (both perfect bound and saddle stitch) are more affordable than hardcovers.
- Page dimensions – For our short run orders (under 500 books) produced with digital presses, there are three price tiers related to page dimensions. In order of increasing cost, these are:
- One dimension 6" or less, other dimension 9" or less
- One dimension 9" or less, other dimension 12" or less
- Both dimensions greater than 9"
- Quantity – The higher the order quantity, the lower the unit cost per book.
- Finishing options – Additions like foil stamping, inset images, dust jackets, softcover flaps, inside cover printing, gatefold pages, etc., all increase the book price.
