WELCOME TO SECONDS & SALES – THE VERTEBRATE PUBLISHING OUTLET

About Seconds & Sales

At Seconds & Sales we sell books which are in need of a home.

Here at Vertebrate Publishing, like many publishers, our shop returns often have minor scuffs, marks, tears or other imperfections which makes it difficult to add those products back in to stock. So, rather than throw them away, we prefer to make them available for you to purchase at a discount. 

Our aim is to inspire everyone – young and old – to get out there and explore the natural world. Our books range from walking, running, cycling, mountain biking, climbing and wild swimming guides, to tales of adventure from some of the world’s most prolific mountaineers, and children’s books for young adventurers. Many of our sale titles have won awards, while others are formally out-of-print classics that we want to continue to be shared and enjoyed.
