Wholesale Discount - The categories are indicated as discount percentages (the discounts given to booksellers by wholesalers) off the retail price of the book. For example, if you choose 40% from the list, and markup or discount that category, all books flagged as having a 40% discount from the wholesalers will be affected by the price change you include.

REG includes books sold at the regular trade discount.
LOW includes books that have a wholesaler discount of 30% or less.
NET includes titles that are sold at a 0% discount (or NET discount) from the wholesaler to the bookseller. To completely disable the sale of NET titles please see our documentation on Store Preferences. [3]

Each markup of Wholesale Discount Categories is specific to the given category
Select 'Add a New Wholesale Discount Category'
Select a ‘Discount Category’
Enter the percentage that you would like to mark up or down (do not include the % symbol)
Select 'Discount' or 'Mark Up'
Submit

Not For Sale - You can upload a file with a list of ISBNs that you do not wish to offer for sale on your site.
1. Review the requirements for your file
2. Browse and Upload your file
3. Customize the message displayed for book that are not for sale
4. Submit

NOTE: The Not For Sale list is processed 4 times a day, so the status change will not be immediately visible.

NOTE: To 'undo' a Not For Sale file upload, a blank .txt file will need to be uploaded. As this will not take effect immediately, we recommend doing this about a day before the book(s) need to be available again.

For more details about the Not For Sale upload, please read our full help documentation on this feature. [4]
