Pricing
ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGE:
There is an administrative charge of $310 (NIS 1000) for use of all our services. This includes use of the Kochav label if the quality of your book is acceptable to us or can be made so by editing. All our services are available to you for this fee whether or not your book is accepted to be published by Kochav Press. There is no refund if your book is not accepted for inclusion under the Kochav Press label.
All fees are generated by the associates of Kochav Press and they and not Kochav Press are responsible for their contribution to the production of your book. Matters associated with your book, such as copyright issues, are your responsibility as author. Prices quoted on this website do not include a 17% VAT charge for Israelis. There is no VAT charge for non-Israeli clients. The administrative charge is payable in full before any services can be provided. For all other services (other than publicity fees), 2/3 of the fee is payable in advance and the remainder on completion of the work. Payments for publicity need to be discussed with the associate involved.
