[aisle] Anderson’s Book Fair?

[Tonya Tjarks]

I used them for the last two years and I can't say enough good things about
them. I've also done approximately 40 Scholastic fairs, and the customer
service at Anderson's is infinitely better. Plus you get the benefits of
their author visits (you're asked to sell that author's books for the
event, but that isn't usually an issue). The financial forms are just as
easy, and my cash profit was better than Scholastic (earning out about the
same for each). They're super helpful if there's an issue, like last year
during P/T conferences I had to call them because I messed something in the
register up, and they answered right away even though it was well after
5PM. Even the bargain books they send are better quality. There are more
hardcovers than Scholastic usually sent, but it's high quality stuff and
new stuff that has just come out. I'm a huge fan.
