What is a Book Lover Account?
- A Book Lover Account is a book credit account in your name to
record the books that you no longer want to keep, and have brought to The Book Attic to share the joy that you had in reading them with other book lovers.
How does a Book Lover Account operate?
- For each used book The Book Attic accepts from you, HK$2.00 to
10.00 will be added into your Book Lover Account.
- When you purchase books at The Book Attic, HK$2.00 to 10.00 will
be deducted from your Book Lover Account to offset the list price of each book.
- For example, if The Book Attic has accepted 10 used books
from you at HK$10.00 each, you will have HK$100.00 in your account.
- When you buy 2 used books at HK$38.00 each, you only have to
pay HK$56.00 instead of HK$76.00 because HK$10.00 is deducted from your Book Lover Account as partial payment for each book. The new balance in your account will be HK$80.00.
