Annie Bloom's Books

A: Not necessarily. What you're seeing is a listing from our distributor's database of all the titles they stock (and some they don't). What you want to look for is the book's status under Availability.

Q: What do the different Availability listings mean?

A 1: On Our Shelves Now": Hooray! This book IS in stock at Annie Bloom's (as of the last time we uploaded our inventory data, at least).

A 2: "Usually Ships in 1-5 Days": This book is NOT in stock at Annie Bloom's. This title is usually in stock with our distributor and will ship from them in 1-5 days. If the book is in stock with our distributor's West Coast warehouse, we can have your book here in 1-3 days (depending on time of day, weekends, holidays, etc.). If we have to get your book from the East Coast, this will take 7-14 days.

A 3: "Subject to Availability": Boo! This is our distributor's roundabout way of saying that the book you want is out of print. Unfortunately, we can't get this title for you.
