BOOKS ON CONSIGNMENT

At Antipodes Bookshop and Gallery, we welcome submissions from self-published authors and small publishers and offer the opportunity for titles to be left on a consignment basis at the bookshop.

What is the process?

Authors leave books with us for an agreed period and we put the stock on our shelves to sell on their behalf. At the end of the agreed period, we pay the authors for any copies sold and return unsold stock OR restock as appropriate.

Is my book suitable for Antipodes?

As a small, independent bookshop we carefully select those titles that suit our readers and consider several factors, including subject matter, author profile, book design and local interest. We receive many submissions and are unable to stock all titles offered.

How do I get in touch?

The first step is to email hello@antipodesbookshop.com with some information and (if possible) sample cover and pages from your book and your contact details. You are also welcome to leave a copy with our team at the bookshop.

Please allow 2-3 weeks for our team to let you know if the title will be taken on consignment and to make arrangements. It is the author’s responsibility to collect a title that will not be stocked.
