remainder mark?

Oct 25, 2007 by Erika H | Posted in Books & Authors

I am frustrating to buy a used book online and it says "Remainder mark"...what does that bad-tempered? Thanks

In proceedings to clear its warehouse, a publisher will often offer the unsold (remainder) portion of a printing at a discount. Such books are for the most part marked on the page edges so that they cannot be returned for a full-price refund. As with most changes made to a book after the initial printing, a remainder mark reduces the value of a soft-cover to less than the same edition would bring unmarked. Individual collectors differ in how distasteful they find a remainder mark to be, but the mark and its location should always be acclaimed in a book description.

Remainder marks are generally simple; they often look like random dots or streaks from a moonless or colored magic marker. Remainder marks vary from the discreet, to the flamboyant, to the apparently unpremeditated.

In request to clear its warehouse, a publisher will often offer the unsold (remainder) portion of a printing at a discount. Such books are as usual marked on the page edges so that they cannot be returned for a full-price refund. As with most changes made to a book after the incipient printing, a remainder mark reduces the value of a book to less than the same edition would bring unmarked. Individual collectors diverge in how distasteful they find a remainder mark to be, but the mark and its location should always be noted in a book description.

Remainder marks are generally simple; they often look like unspecified dots or streaks from a black or colored magic marker. Remainder marks vary from the considerate, to the flamboyant, to the apparently accidental.

what does it mean when they say the book may have a remainder mark ?

Mar 04, 2007 by ambercat | Posted in Books & Authors

When you are checking the mould of a used book and you are told it has a remainder mark? What exactly is a remainder mark???

Some books blow the whistle on, and others don't. If a publisher decides this one wouldn't, he might "remainder" it to be sold at a discount, so long as it was sufficiently significant to indicate that fact.
