help FAQ


You received my return, why haven't you shipped my next order?

Your order may be delayed for one of the following reasons:

  1. You do not have any books on your queue. Please add books to your queue.
  2. All the titles on your queue have not been published yet. Please add some current titles.
  3. All the titles on your queue are older, rare books. The inventory of these books is limited and it would be best if you add more current titles to your queue.
  4. None of the titles on your queue are currently in stock. We will generate your next order, then order the titles in that order from one of our distributors. The titles will arrive in our warehouse within 1-2 business days and will ship to you the same day.
Keeping as many books as you can on your list at all times (we recommend at least 10-15 current titles) will reduce or eliminate delays.

Why was a book shipped that was not at the top of my queue?

New orders are generated based on the order of your queue, and availability at the time the order is generated. When we receive your returns, our system automatically generates your next order by starting the top of your queue selectin the first 1, 2, or 3 available books on your queue, depending on your membership plan. If the first book on your queue is currently not in stock the system will proceed to the second, third, fourth, and so on until it finds enough available books to fulfill you next order.

Why has a title been added to my list again?

If an order is generated for a title that is currently not in stock and another title on your queue becomes available, the system will swap the unavailable title in your order with the available title on your queue.
