From time to time we offer a discount on our books using a discount code at the checkout. These discounts are offered as a goodwill gesture. These discount codes may be offered under certain conditions, which will be specified, and the customer will only qualify for the discount if such conditions are met. Examples may include, but not be limited to: certain specified books only, certain formats (hard copy or ebook), certain expiry dates etc.
If a customer forgets or fails to input a discount code at the checkout during the purchasing process, unfortunately we cannot add this to your order subsequently and the customer will not be able to claim the discount.
