Extra Stock Sales are opportunities to purchase remaining Subscription Editions after we've fulfilled our active subscriber allocations.

They're separate from our Exclusive Edition preorders and are specifically for Subscription Editions.

Extra Stock Sales only happen when additional copies are available, and remaining editions aren't always offered for sale. If an edition is offered through Extra Stock, it is sold at full retail price.

Extra Stock Sales are for Subscription Editions only: the books featured in our Contemporary, Dark and Fantasy Romance subscription boxes.

Exclusive Editions aren't part of the Extra Stock system. Any remaining Exclusive Edition stock is handled separately.

Extra Stock is never guaranteed.

We aim to fulfil our active subscribers first, and only copies remaining after those allocations have been accounted for may potentially become Extra Stock. Depending on the circumstances, remaining copies may instead be used to open additional subscription spaces.

Whether an edition is eventually offered through Extra Stock depends on available stock and other factors at the time.

There's no set schedule for Extra Stock Sales.

We only hold a sale when we have remaining Subscription Editions that we're able to offer.

We'll announce each sale ahead of time, including which editions are available and when early and general access begin.

We'll announce upcoming Extra Stock Sales through our usual Bookish & Spice communications.

Active subscribers will receive information about their early-access opportunity ahead of the sale.

We'll also announce when general access opens.

Active subscribers.

You need to have an active subscription at the time the Extra Stock Sale opens for subscribers.

Being a previous subscriber, having purchased a Bookish & Spice special edition, or having bought from an earlier Extra Stock Sale does not qualify you for subscriber early access.

Active subscribers receive access to the Extra Stock Sale before general access opens.

You'll receive an email with your secret access link, which will take you directly to the subscriber sale.

No password is required.

Your secret access link will be sent to the email address associated with your active subscription.

Keep an eye on your inbox before the sale begins. If you can't find the email, check your spam or junk folder first.

If you're still having trouble accessing the sale, please email us at admin@bookishandspice.com.au before the sale begins where possible so we can help.

No.

Subscriber early access is the benefit for Extra Stock Sales. Extra Stock editions are sold at their listed full retail price.

⚠️ Copies are strictly limited to one of each book per person. ⚠️

However, there is no limit on how many different titles you can purchase.

For example, in past sales, customers were permitted to purchase:

  • Blood and Steel
  • Hunt Me Darling

But not:

  • Blood and Steel

We reserve the right to cancel any orders that exceed the one-copy-per-title limit.

Good Condition copies are leftover books that meet our quality standards with no noticeable imperfections or damage.

Imperfect copies will have minor cosmetic flaws (e.g., slightly dented corners or misaligned sprayed edges). These flaws are purely aesthetic and do not affect readability. Each book will vary but listings will include example photographs of typical imperfections

Yes! All books sold in Extra Stock Sales come from the original print run, with the same custom features (foiling, endpages, sprayed edges, etc.) as the original subscription edition.

No — Extra Stock is not a discount sale.

Prices will vary by title.

However, imperfect copies will typically be offered at a slightly lower price than good condition stock.

Shipping is not included in the listed Extra Stock price and is calculated at checkout.

Yes. Due to the limited nature of extra stock, all sales are final and we are unable to offer returns or exchanges for these items.

There will also be no replacements available if books are damaged in transit.

Once an Extra Stock Sale has ended, we can't guarantee that additional copies will become available.

Extra Stock is strictly dependent on what remains after subscriber allocations have been fulfilled, so we recommend subscribing when you want to guarantee access to a Subscription Edition.
