Please be aware that university bookstores consider many factors when ordering books: course enrollment, competition from other bookstores, return policy of the publisher, availability of used books, and sell-through rate of books for the same course in previous years. Once they have decided on a number, they order the book from the distributor (in this case, Ingram). Since enrollment can fluctuate as students add and drop courses, bookstores often have difficulty estimating how many copies to order.

Occasionally, too few copies will be ordered. Thus, some students may experience delays as bookstores order more copies once they have sold out. If this happens, it should take no more than one week between when a bookstore orders Chalkbored and when it arrives. If students complain of delays, you can mention that it is also available online, which often provides faster delivery (as little as two days between ordering and arrival).

In terms of price, the suggested retail price is $19.95. However, it may be slightly higher or lower because bookstores determine the final price themselves.
