Our Physical Book Fair program is the event-driven, on-premise book fair style schools have been holding for decades. In this program, you can purchase all of the titles you expect to sell at one time, and we will ship them to you for your event. You get the books at a 25%+ discount from the retail prices, and you are able to then price the books for your event – passing on as much or as little of the discounted rate to your parents as you wish. After the event, you can keep any unsold items for your next event, or for your own facility library, or you can return the unsold items for credit (see “Can I return items” section below).  

Another alternative is to purchase a single “display” copy of each of the titles you would like to offer, and either take orders at the event or send home order forms with the students for what books they would like to purchase. You collect the orders and payments and enter the orders on your online book fair portal once you are ready to place the order. (You can choose to sell your display copies, reducing your order cost, or keep your display copies for your own library).  

A few notes about Physical Book Fairs:

1. A $500 minimum order is required.

2. Please order at least three weeks before your event to ensure your books arrive on time.

3. Let us know that you want to do a book fair, and we will set up your account to receive special pricing.

4. You choose, or we choose! You choose the titles you want to sell at the book fair, or we can choose for you! If you are unsure what to sell or do not have time to review our materials, just let us know, and we can pick the items based on the dollar amount you want to raise. All items will have the retail or sale price marked on the back. (Please note that, at this time, product bundles will not show up with wholesale pricing–you will need to add the titles in a series separately.)

5. Once you’ve chosen your books (or we’ve chosen for you), we’ll ship out your books, and all you need to do is put the books out on display and collect the funds.

What we do for you:

1. We will give you up to a 25% discount off list prices on books, CDs, DVDs, and Bibles.  Some items, such as our Grace & Truth Books publications, will have up to a 50% discount.

2. We will ship your order via economy USPS or UPS economy shipping (call for expedited shipping prices).

3. You can take orders for additional copies, which will be sent to you with free economy shipping, for 30 days after the close of your book fair. Simply contact us with the list of additional orders!

What if I already have an account at Grace and Truth Books?

If you would like to use your existing account, you can simply log in and navigate to “My Account”.  At the bottom of that page is a link that says “You are registered as a standard customer. Click here to request an account upgrade.”  That link will allow us to update your profile to be a book fair customer. Once logged in, you will see the discounted prices available once you reach the order minimums.  

** Keep in mind that if you decide to convert your account, you won’t be able to get normal customer shipping rates for that account with personal orders. So we recommend you use a different email address if possible.
