(15,278 posts)They come out in hardback, then when the paperback version is published, unsold hardbacks are returned to the publisher. The unsold hardbacks are then returned as discounted bargain books at regular bookstores. If the books don't sell as bargain books, they are returned to the publisher then usually end up in dollar stores or other such outlets.
