Why 100 copies do not have one fixed price
The quantity is only one input. A 100-page A5 black-and-white paperback and a 300-page colour hardcover are entirely different products even if both are ordered in 100 copies.

Why page count matters
More pages increase paper usage and print impressions. Page count also affects spine width, binding suitability and parcel weight.
Why binding matters
Paperback, spiral and hardcover have different production requirements. For a comparison, keep the interior specification the same and ask for two binding options.
Should an author print exactly 100 copies?
Choose quantity from expected demand, budget and storage. A small planned run can reduce inventory risk, particularly before demand is known.
Chaitanya Print provides specification-based quotations rather than presenting a universal 100-copy price that may not match your book.
