Pulp Fiction Books – Science fiction, fantasy, crime and mystery booksellers (original) (raw)

Tuesday, 29 October: Phone service to the shop has been restored. Phew! Thanks for your patience!

29 years of Pulp Fiction!

Thanks, Brisbane book friends, for all your support during our anniversary celebrations.

The winners of our daily draws for one of four birthday vouchers are (in alphabetical order): Anne Marie A, Ian A, Darren B, James B, Kerstin B, Olga B, Tim B, Vince B, Helen C, Jo C, Annie F, Stuart F, Lindsay G, Lorraine H, David K, Kirby K, Danielle L, Gary L, Anna M, Belinda M, Philip M, John P, Geoff S, Stacey S, Tye S, Kylie S-C, Sam U, Natalie W.

If you keep your Bookpoints card in the shop, we’ll just attach the new voucher to it. If you keep your Bookpoints card with you, it will be in the drawer – awaiting your next visit to the shop. You have until 31 December to use it!

Don’t forget our half-off table of overstocks continues (help these poor, orphaned books find a decent home)!

With the sad demise of Booktopia, we’d just like to reiterate something we’ve been saying for the past 29 years (on the catalogues) –

Pulp Fiction has access to thousands of books not shown in our monthly catalogues. We are only too happy to order anything if we don’t have it on the shelves.

It doesn’t have to be f&sf or crime/mystery, we can order you books on your obscure hobby, or mad historical obsession we approve of these).

We may ask you for a deposit, if it’s something we wouldn’t normally stock; especially if it’s an expensive, hardcover import… but, otherwise, easy. 😉

Standing orders – don’t miss out!

Just a reminder – these days we have to be fairly conservative with quantities when we order new titles – especially US and UK imports!

If you have a favourite author(s) – or a series – books that you must have as soon as they’re released – then tell us which edition (hardcover, trade paperback, mass-market paperback, or, simply, ‘first available’); and we can put you on our Standing Orders list.

It means we’ll have ample stock to cover the needs of our regulars – and we’ll let you know as soon as the book(s) arrives. 🙂

Just a reminder…

There’s lots of supply chain issues with the book trade – all over the globe! (This twitter thread is specific to the US. The UK is experiencing similar but different issues.)

So we appreciate your patience if books take a little longer than normal to arrive, or release dates get pushed back, etc.

One more reminder – if there are any must-have books by a particular author or in a particular series that you always grab as soon as they’re out – then let us know and put in a standing order for them. That way, we’ll order enough stock and contact you as soon as it’s in. Makes it all very easy. 🙂
