A: Each book is individually priced based on its current market value, condition, and availability. Most of our books are collectable, vintage, many are hard to find in the 'wild'. We use actual 'sold' prices as a benchmark (Trademe, Ebay & Dunbar Slone) We try to price below market average to encourage people to start to resell books as a side hustle!
