What is your return policy?
Because our goal is to make returns as easy as possible for you, 800-CEO-READ will refund the full cost of your book purchase within 90 days after you receive your order. Please note that books must be returned in their original condition, with no writing or other damage. Also, be sure not to open any software until you are sure you will keep the book. We cannot take returns on books if the seal on any included software is broken.

If you are returning books because of a mistake we made - for example, if the books are damaged when you get them - please call 800-236-7323 and one of our Client Services Associates will correct this immediately.

When we receive your return, we will promptly credit your account for the full cost of the book purchase. We can only refund your shipping cost if the return is the result of our error. To return your order, please call 800-236-7323 and ask the Client Service Associate for a Return Number. Then, send your return to the following address:

800-CEO-READ

Are all items in your database currently in-stock?
We are an "on-demand" provider. While we stock a good number of the best-selling business and technical titles, we also order and ship directly from publishers and distributors. This way, we are able to offer you the widest range of titles, while keeping shipping charges low.

How up-to-date is your database?
We do an overall update of our entire database monthly, and are adding and correcting our database daily to offer you correct and timely information.

If there are difficulties with my online order, how will I be notified?
You will receive an e-mail regarding any difficulties with your order within 24 hours of our receipt of your order. Because your company's personal representative handles each successfully submitted order, there is no lag time between our receipt of your order and current information.

If an item is not in stock, do you backorder?
If an item is not available at the time of your order, but has a projected due date from the publisher, that item is automatically put on backorder. You will receive, within 24 hours of our receipt of your order, an e-mail regarding any book which will not ship within your preferred shipping time.

What is the normal turn-around time on my order?
After you have placed your order and received your automated confirmation of that order via e-mail, our web order specialist takes over. We pull web orders as they are received, take note of your preferred shipping method, and proceed to locate your book(s). In-stock orders may arrive in 3-10 business days.

What is your price guarantee?
We consider our Web site price our quote to you. On the occasion that the publisher has changed the list price or a new edition has been issued to the book you wish to order, you will be notified by a Customer Service Associate of the change.

Do you match competitor prices?
We take pride in our history of fair and consistent pricing. We offer a 20% discount on all trade titles when ordered in a quantity of 10 or more.

How is my credit card number protected?
Shopping at 800-CEO-READ is secure. Every credit card purchase is encrypted by VeriSign, the leader in processing secure internet payments. The VeriSign software encrypts credit card information as it is transmitted, making the transaction safe and your credit card information secure.

We also offer an additional credit card guarantee. Though we have full confidence in the safety of Internet transactions and our credit card partner VeriSign, 800-CEO-READ provides this additional guarantee to protect against fraud. If through no fault of your own, your credit card company finds that credit card fraud has occurred resulting from use of our site, and does not waive your entire liability, we will reimburse you for the remaining liability, up to a maximum of $50.00.

When you place an order online with 800-CEO-READ, your personal information and credit card information are encrypted using SSL technology before being sent over the Internet. This process makes it virtually impossible for your information to be stolen or intercepted while being transferred. Any stored information is protected inside an encrypted database.

Customs Information
Import duties and customs fees are charged to the receiving customer once the package reaches the destination country. Customs policies vary widely from country to country and we generally cannot determine what these fees will be for you. We strongly recommend that each customer contact their local customs office for details as to how these fees are assessed and applied.
