FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Answers to Common Questions
GENERAL QUESTIONS
A. WHAT IS BOOKISH PANDA?
​
Bookish Panda is a Philippine-based monthly subscription box. These boxes contain various novelty items, merchandises, or books depending on the chosen theme every month. The subscribers, or those who have availed the subscription for the box, will receive a loot box every month that will be delivered by our accredited courier service provider (Xend or LBC ).
​
B. HOW DOES IT WORK?
​
The subscribers will have to sign up our order or purchase form to provide the necessary details that the providers need such as name, contact details, and address. The said box is not available for Cash on Delivery (COD) purchase. The payments have to be made prior to the delivery of the boxes.
​
C. WHEN AND WHERE CAN I SIGN UP?
​
Our order forms are currently up on our website. Just click the Pre-Order/Subscribe Now button to be directed in our Google Form that you have to fill-up in order to subscribe.
You can only sign up until stocks last. We have a limited number of boxes each month so we recommend for you to avail earlier because once we sell out it is more likely that we won’t restock for the said month.
​
D. WHAT IS A 'THEME'?
​
We will release a ‘theme’ each month to give the subscribers a hint on what’s inside the mystery boxes.
THINK INSIDE THE BOX
A. WHAT CAN I EXPECT IN THE BOX?
​
Inside each box, you will see a Young-Adult book and 6-10 novelty or merchandise items related to the theme. These are customized items such as bookmarks, posters, shirts etc. Some are exclusively designed, meaning you can only get the design and/or item in our boxes. Some will also be exclusively designed for you by Pouts and Fluffs. There will also be a customized ownership card every month. (Items inside the box will depend on the theme every month, please take note that items may still vary)
​
B. WHAT KIND OF BOOK WILL IT BE?
​
Our box will usually have a Young Adult book that focuses on Fantasy, Adventure, Contemporary, Mystery etc. and the book may be a hardbound or paperback copy (depending on your choice or what format the book of the month is available).
