What is a "return"?
A return refers to unsold copies of books that are sent back to the publisher or distributor by booksellers. This usually occurs when booksellers need to clear shelf space or when books do not sell as anticipated. Returns are a common practice in the book industry and allow booksellers to recover some of their costs. The returned books may be reprocessed, discounted, or handled according to the publisher's return policy.
