Does Xinhua Bookstore require compensation if the book film is removed?

According to general business regulations, bookstores generally will not require compensation for removing book covers. Book film is used in some bookstores to protect the covers and edges of books to keep them in good condition. However, this is only a protective measure and removing the film will not cause any substantial damage to the book. Therefore, under normal circumstances, bookstores will not ask for compensation.

However, specifics may vary depending on bookstore policies and regional laws. If you purchased the book at a particular bookstore and the store has special rules requiring the book wrap to be retained, removing the book wrap may violate their rules. In this case, the bookstore may seek compensation from you. In addition, consumer protection laws in some regions may have relevant provisions on such issues. You can consult the relevant local legal departments or consumer protection organizations for more accurate information.
