Thanks Allan. I can't remember which bookstores I approached (over the years) and all were very willing to give us a discount. Sounds like they might be more our cup of tea.

I think they only have that one store (near the QVB), but they are to Sydney what Technical are to Melbourne - they're just a little smaller. They don't have magazines or engineering-type manuals, but they have excellent stocks of style guides, dictionaries and the like. They do have a loyalty system and I suspect they might be interested in a deal for ASTC if they're asked.
