Where Can I Buy Travel Books & Maps Wholesale?

[simon43]

I want to open a kiosk at my airport hotel where guests can purchase topical items, such as Lonely Planet/Rough Guide travel books, maps, phrase books etc.

I assume that I simply buy these items at wholesale rate, and then resell them at the retail rate. But I'm having problems finding a wholesale supplier of travel books and maps in Thailand. I have contacted AsiaBooks but received no reply.

Can anyone suggest where I might be able to buy travel books & maps for resale?

Thanks

Try contacting UG on the Chiang Mai forum he is the owner of http://www.geckobooks.net/ which is a forum sponsor and maybe able to help you.

Any updates on this endeavor? I, too, am interested in procuring some books at a reasonable discount.

Thanks,
