    Hi,

    I’m interested in ordering fifty copies of my book to sell at a festival.

    I’d like to know how much cheaper the postage would be?

    A ‘Postage for multiple orders calculator’ would be a useful tool.

    Thanks,

    Olly

      Hi Olly,

      I frequently order boxes of books, and you can find out the postage cost by clicking on the Buy Proof Copies button, then putting in 50 copies. On the next page you can see the delivery cost for your book and can change the numbers of books ordered and update the cart to find the most cost efficient qty to place in your order. (for my latest book (Edinburgh Shorts) it worked out to be 41 books based on the weight of the parcel. So it would cost me the same to post 10 books or 41 books, and then the price increases at 42 books.
