If you have budget to buy or fund books in large quantities (10,000+), and are based in South Africa, please review the standard print cost estimates below before emailing us at team@bookdash.org with your formal quote request.
You should use the figures below as an indication of cost for your required quantity. Book Dash will request an official quote from the printer before confirming your order.
The estimates below:
- Include the cost of Book Dash managing the whole print project on your behalf, including managing delivery.
- Exclude the cost of delivery – we recommend budgeting another R1 per book for this.
Have a look at the two scenarios below as practical examples:
- 10,000 books of 1 title (book): 10,000 x R15.00 per copy = R150,000 (ex-VAT)
- 50,000 books of 5 different titles (books): 50,000 x R14.00 per copy = R700,000 (ex-VAT)
The minimum print order is 10,000 books. If you need a smaller quantity you can:
- Buy books from stock
- Take advantage of our annual stock sales by subscribing to our newsletter or by following us on social media
- Email us at team@bookdash.org to discuss joining another planned print run to bring costs down
- Print your chosen quantity of any of the Book Dash books by following our open content partner guidelines.
