It's a good thing we don't currently have a book out for sale. The Scientologists buy the book *Dianetics *from, say, a BDalton bookstore a hundred at a time for cash. They then return them to the publisher. Often clerks at BDalton open up a box containing the book *Dianetics* and they'd already have the BDalton sticker on them.
