“Often from a Borders store at a 40% discount. Their financial woes arent due to a lack of patronage from me.”
I’m in Retail. They’re either jackin’ the price up sky-high to begin with to give you and others a 40% discount, or they’re just your basic liberal business idiots.
They also own Walden Books - they closed TWO HUNDRED STORES in 2010! That’s at least 4K American jobs gone.

We have a Walden's in Pocatello. Frankly, why bother? Not much I want to buy on the shelves. Lots of books. Lots of floor space, but nothing that interests me. Too bad, since I spend upwards of $1,000 annually on technical books. When I'm home, that is typically all Amazon purchases. Even the B&N in Idaho Falls is poor for computer/electrical engineering titles. The one in Mira Mesa (San Diego) is very good.
