A Guide to The Stars

"Twinkle twinkle little star,
how I wonder what you are..."

On some of the books in our store you will notice a round sticker with a white star against a silver background. Have you ever wondered why you might want to look at these stars? Here are a few reasons to make Sterling Star-gazing worth your while:

- Special Offers - The main reason a book receives a Sterling Star is because it is comparatively cheap. These special offers are either indicated by an extra-ordinary low price in the center of the Sterling Star, or by a percentage discount we will deduct at the till. Publishers appreciate the fact that Independent Book stores (such as Sterling Books) are able to stock a far larger variety of titles than your average run-off-the-mill chain store. They encourage this fact by offering us special prices on remarkable books. Sterling Stars are our way of letting you know that you too can profit directly from these discounted prices.

- Signed Copies - Books that have been signed by the author are often virtually price-less to the author's fans. Whenever possible, Sterling Books asks prominent authors visiting Belgium to sign a number of their books. If you are interested in these instant collector's items you are advised to keep an eye on our web-page and be quick - offers are by necessity limited.

- "?" - Books may receive a Sterling Star for any variety of reasons. These reasons may not be as many as there are stars in the firmament - but you can be certain that whenever a title does receive a Sterling Star, it shines forth to indicate a bargain.







P.S. These star stickers are designed NOT to damage your book when you peel them off. In doubt, ask us to peel them off for you.
