Purchase Orders and Terms

For your first couple of orders, prepayment is required. After we've established a satisfactory relationship, we may offer other terms. We are firm on this policy. You are also welcome to order books through Baker & Taylor or Ingram.

If you need books for a special event or by a certain date, please allow at least three (3) weeks from your date of order so we can make sure you receive books on time. We cannot be responsible for books arriving late when we are not given enough advance notice in the order.

Purchase orders are welcome but not required. We accept major credit cards, money orders, or checks. We are happy to follow any special instructions listed on the purchase order regarding shipping and billing addresses, number of copies of the invoice, and delivery date requirements. If you would like books shipped collect using your own shipping account, please let us know when you place your order.

Returns

Returns will be accepted for credit if items are received still in new (not shelfworn) condition and within 12 months of the date of purchase. In order to facilitate proper credit to your account, please follow our guidelines and process your return as detailed below:

  • Returns will be accepted only from resellers with a valid Reseller Certificate Number on file with us. If you have not provided us with your Reseller Certificate Number, we cannot accept returns.
  • Returned books must be in new, saleable condition, free of markings, labels, stickers, etc. Shopworn or stripped cover books, or titles damaged due to improper packing shall not be credited. Please do not attempt to return used, worn, stripped or damaged items.
  • Credit shall not be given for Yaldah books that are more than 90 days out of print, or not purchased directly from Yaldah Publishing. If you purchased your books through a wholesaler (eg: Ingram, Baker & Taylor), or a distributor, you will need to return books to them.
  • Books purchased on a non-returnable basis cannot be returned.
  • No returns can be made before 90 days or after 12 months from invoice date unless prior arrangements have been made with Yaldah Publishing.
  • Payment in full for the books must have been received before returns can be processed.
  • Any deductions against outstanding invoices taken prior to receipt of our credit memo will be refused.
  • All books are returned at the account's risk and expense.
  • We reserve the right to refuse any returns that do not comply with these guidelines.

Process:

  • Permission to make returns must be obtained in advance from Yaldah Publishing. We will send our return authorization including appropriate label(s) with a return number.
  • Shipments without our Yaldah Publishing return label will not be accepted and no credit will be issued.
  • Multiple carton returns must be clearly numbered and labeled (1 of 2, etc.).
  • A packing list stating date of purchase, original invoice number, quantities, titles, original discount, net price, and ISBN numbers must accompany all returns.
  • Please allow 30 days for credit to be issued from the date your return is received by us.

Damaged Books

If you receive a damaged item, please save the packaging along with the damaged item and let us know. In most cases, we will want you to send us the damaged item along with its packaging so we can file a claim with the shipping company.

We cannot accept claims for damage when the packaging has been lost or discarded, because then neither we nor the shipping company can verify where the damage occurred. We also cannot accept claims for damage more than 10 business days after the package has arrived.

If you have saved the packaging and notified us about the damage, please let us know whether you want us to reship the order immediately under the original invoice, ship the order under a new invoice, or cancel the order entirely.

Defective or Wrong Books

Please return the defective or wrong book via the cheapest shipping method available to:

Yaldah Publishing

Accounts in Arrears

We invoice based on either prepayment or Net 30 terms. If an account is over 30 days past due, a 5% late fee will be assessed on all unpaid balances and we may require prepayment for future orders. No additional orders can be processed until all overdue invoices are paid.

If an account is 60 days or more past due and the account holder has refused to send payment, it may be turned over to a collection agency. In that unfortunate event, all collection charges and interest allowable by law will be invoiced.

Yaldah Publishing reserves the right to change any portion of these terms and conditions without prior notice.
