To remainder paperbacks, instead of sending the entire book back for credit they'd rip off the covers, send those instead, and dumpster the book. I don't know if they do this anymore. When I grew up in the 80s, I read an enormous number of coverless books:)

This was SOP for me when I worked as the receiver in a supermarket from ~2007-2011.
It’s a shame, I must have thrown thousands and thousands of books away, instead of donating them to a library or something.
But then again, I guess the library would only accept so many copies of the same nascar-themed trashy romance novel.
That's still SOP.
