Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs
Are you a truly independent bookstore?
Yes!
And we're working towards a brick-and-mortar! Learn about that here.
We aim to keep around one-thousand books in circulation in our on-line bookstore at any given time. This keeps us small and agile, and able to continue to do pop-ups around town and to host other cool events, without getting bogged down with inventory management.
Our curation efforts make for a highly-curated selection, and our readers say our smaller size enhances the ease of browsing new titles without getting overwhelmed with the dreaded title-fatigue.
Do you sell used books?
Yes!
Although we mainly focus on new books, we do buy and sell used books, but they must be in pristine condition. Got something to sell? Go here.
Why do we only sell used books in pristine condition?
We are personally aware of how disappointing shopping for used books can be online...looking at you Thriftbooks.

How do your memberships work?
We are so proud to be able to offer two amazing Spellman Bookstore membership options:
Reader Membership (Free):
All you have to do is sign up with us by providing your name and email and voila! You're a Reader member.
Reader membership allows you to earn Marks (our term for points) on nearly every single purchase you make with us. Marks can be redeemed for store credit! That's literally free money for shopping with us.
If that isn't enough awesome, Readers also enjoy FREE SHIPPING on all orders over $50 (perfect for bookhauls and holiday gifting). Plus, some other cool benefits. Learn all about Reader benefits here.
Don't let anyone tell you shipping costs aren't a price gouging mechanism to used to bully small businesses - they so are - so this small benefit is a big deal.
Collector Membership ($29/yr):
We admit we also occasionally shop at behemoth stores like Barnes and Noble in a pinch, but we're not here to support big-business, we're here to compete.
Our Collector membership is not only cheaper than B&N's, with the same benefits like FREE SHIPPING on everything + 10%off nearly every book, but we're small and independent! See all the amazing benefits Collector members get here.
Buying your books at Spellman Bookstore means you're supporting real people, with real lives, and you're getting all the benefits of big-business at a small and independent bookstore.
How can you offer these amazing deals?
Simple! We believe books are magick and words are spells, and want to spread that magick as far and wide as possible.
(Read: "We aren't doing this to get rich.")
We're just a normal bookish couple who feel the joy of selling a new or pristine copy of an amazing title is greater than the joy of high
margins. We actually make a very small margin on every book we sell.
As we grow, that margin will increase (all-hail wholesale access) but we'll continue to pass along the savings to our readers in creative ways.
See how we're passing along the savings to you currently.
What if I have more questions?
Have no fear. Go here.
