Not long ago, Tao Dan book company opened to sell hardcover copies of the book Unearth the fairy dragon (author Nguyen Manh Tien). Books of the editorial genre, which are said to be picky about readers, were also quickly sold out. Explaining the quick sale of books “in the blink of an eye”, a representative of Dong A said that special books are always limited in quantity, unable to do much. Meanwhile, the demand of the market is large, it is understandable to sell out of books early. Book makers have devised many ways to release the special edition. For limited editions, those in need must “watch the clock”, make sure the device has a good Internet connection, prepare a bank account, e-wallet and especially be quick when ordering. Meanwhile, to own special books such as S100 (only make 100 copies), S80 (only make 80 copies), buying form is even more difficult. From the beginning of the year, people in need must participate in an auction to have the right to buy special books. New auction winners have the right to purchase special editions that will be released during the year. If you don’t win the auction, when the book is released, people in need will hardly be able to own a copy that they want. The hardcover book of Tao Dan company also has a number of readers pre-ordered all year in advance. Hardcover book Khai Nguyen Dragon and Fairy. Photo: Tao Dan.
