Past Editions
For black & white copies of editions 1-5 (then titled The Ebon Run), the cost will be $1.50 (shipping included) for singular copies and 30¢ per copy for multiple copies *plus shipping for the desired quantity of copies.
Current (7th) Edition
For the 7th edition of WORD
IMPACT, the goal is to publish 25,000 copies in color.
These resulting said color copies
could be purchased through bulk-wholesalers or wholesalers. (See Fundrai$ing
Opportunity.)
If the 25,000-copy goal isn't reached,
1,000 copies will be printed in black & white, with this said 1,000 being
subsidized by advertisers in order to lower the per-copy price for customers. The
purchasing cost will be $1.10
(including shipping) per singular copy and 10¢
per copy for multiple copies *plus
shipping for the desired quantity of copies.
For copies beyond the 1,000
advertiser-subsidized quantity, the price will change to $1.50 (including
shipping) per singular copy and to 30¢ per copy for multiple copies
*plus shipping for the desired quantity of copies.
*Media Mail or Bound Printed
Matter Mail with Delivery Confirmation will be used when it becomes the cheapest
shipping method.
Wholesale Prices for
Black & White (Subsidized by Advertisers)
(Internal pages probably printed on Recycled
Paper.)
(For a flyer you can copy
allowing you to sell
black & white, as well as color,
copies,
scroll to the bottom of Fundrai$ing
Opportunity and
read "To Get Started.")
Wholesale
quantities for black & white ad-subsidized
copies will be sold in 25-copy units
at $2 per unit
plus shipping.
*Shipping weight per unit will be set at 4
lbs. 6.5 oz. Copies will ship via the
cheapest available method: Media or **Bound Printed Matter. All units will be
shipped with Delivery Confirmation (currently 60¢).
For Media Mail, I'll limit the size of any singular package to 100
copies (4 units);
however, you may order as many additional units as you wish, which will be sent
in as many additional packages as needed. **BPM mail is limited to 15 lbs (3
units).
To calculate your actual
shipping cost, decide the total quantity of units you desire and then multiply
the aforementioned unit weight by said quantity. Then visit USPS.com,
navigate to and click on "Calculate
Domestic Postage," place the total weight into the top boxes,
"24701" into the "From" box, and your Zip Code into the
"To" box. Make sure the "Package" radio button is selected.
Then click "Continue" to find the shipping cost. (Don't
forget to add the $2 per unit for
the total cost.)
If you order multiple units,
I'll try to save you on shipping by breaking the package quantities down into
the most economical copy volumes. For example: Six units (150 copies at 26 lbs.
7 oz.) shipped to 02301 is cheaper at 2 packages of 75 copies each BPM ( 13 lbs.
1.5 oz. each) than at 1 package of 100 copies Media (17 lbs. 10 oz.) and 1
package of 50 copies BPM (8 lbs. 13 oz.), saving
$1.45 in total cost ($25.53 - $24.08).
