Fact or Myth: Buying Amazon Bulk Books

We're finding out once and for all the truth behind buying Amazon bulk books.

Amazon has become one of the largest organizations in the world — and not by chance. They are a leader in online retail and are responsible for almost half the United State's e-commerce revenue. You can get anything from books to clothes to electronics; all with the click of a button. Ever wonder if Amazon offers books in bulk? We're here to put an end to this dilemma and discern fact from fiction when it comes to buying Amazon bulk books.

You can receive discounts on orders in bulk.

Myth. Per Amazon's customer service page, you will not receive any additional discounts for large quantity orders. Why should you be paying more per copy when you're buying such a large quantity? BookPal's tiered pricing system allows for more discounts the more you order. Additionally, almost all orders over $100 include free shipping!

You can add as many books to your cart as you want.

Fact. There is no limit to the number of books you can buy on Amazon. Want to buy all 175 of the Nancy Drew books? They've got your back. However, if you're wanting multiple copies of the same book, beware. Most items have limited stock and limit the quantity you can add to your cart.

Amazon accepts purchase orders.

Fact. You may enter a purchase order number as long as you have a business account. However, Amazon does not generate this for you. Not to worry! BookPal makes it easy to submit purchase orders for your business, school, and school district.

Amazon has payment plans.

Fact. Financing options are available through purchasing an Amazon.com Store Card. Don't want to use their card? BookPal has financing options for select circumstances that don't require a special store card. Contact us for more information.
