Certainly! We don't make quite as much profit from the book, but certainly every sale helps. If you're searching for a particular book, that's the way to go.
2) Are you a non-profit/tax deductible?
We're a socially conscious corporation, not a non-profit. It's true, we're out to make a profit--hate us if you must. Our business model for the software involves selling our software service however, not selling books.
3) I Love Lorem Ipsum Books! What if you actually sell out of your inventory?
Won't that be cool? Seriously, we have a good supply of new books, so while the walls may be thinner than normal for a few weeks, we should be back up to stock in no time. We love our store and are not going to close it.
4) Hey, if you sell out, you should have a Flash Mob in the bookstore.
Good idea! (Thanks, c.h.) If we do sell out, we'll be certain to have a book-stocking party of some kind.
5) I don't see any shipping costs, is shipping included?
Yes, all shipping and handling costs are included. Free, as in shipping.
6) What kind of books do you have?
Lorem Ipsum Books' slogan is 'Useful Books'. If you're creative, every book is useful! We have a little bit of everything: paperback/hardcover, fiction/non, etc. If you don't find your book useful for reading, perhaps you would find it useful for re-gifting, making your bookshelf pretty, or squashing a bug with, although you didn't hear that from me.
7) What's the deal with this website?
This website is where our extra-curricular activities related to books live. We think of this site as the place for an ongoing dialogue with the public on the role that retail and especially books play in our lives. The name came from a mash of an award we won and some silly tele-show.
8) Aren't you afraid of alienating the Venture Community?
Nah, they're a thick-skinned bunch who likes a good sport.
