Re-Formatting for Createspace?

If I DO want to sell these books then I would have to make them more affordable... The copies I ordered from BLURB were over £27 COST price each EX VAT and excluding postage. I could make a paperback copy through BLURB but this would still be around £15 plus postage it seems...

Amazon has a self-publishing platform called CreateSpace which I was looking at using as it is really cheap to produce books through this HOWEVER they don't do landscape formats! This seems to be a common factor in book printing, landscape it costly and not many companies offer it.
So if I use CreateSpace I will have to reformat the book to a square (8.5x8.5)
I've also heard that the quality isn't very good and the trimming is often wrong.
