Purchase the book somewhere else.

Send Costco a copy of the receipt.

I give them credit for explaining their original decision (blaming the book supplier, but whatever), reviewing the situation. and very quickly reversing the decision.

From BIZ PAC REVIEW:

News of the book’s removal quickly spread, and a backlash has ensued.

Costco shoppers are venting their anger on the company’s Facebook page, threatening to boycott their stores and calling for customers to request their membership fees back. Here is a sample:

We exercise discipline in the best utilization of that limited space based solely on what our members are buying.

I'll assume Hillary's book is long gone from Costco's shelves.

Perhaps COSTCO might want to give us some numbers of their sales just before they pulled that book.

Could be that they were telling the truth.

But, if what I read about COSTCO owners being liberal, those numbers would prove that once again liberals are lying like a cheap rug.

And - as usual - math is NOT their friend.

“..............We are constantly monitoring book sales, and make decisions to pull books off the shelves frequently based on sales volume...”

If this be the case then why are there stacks of Hillary’s crappy books on the table THAT VERY FEW OF COSTCO’S, much less any book seller’s CUSTOMER’S ARE BUYING?

“Costco is not a book store. Our book shelf space is very limited,” a statement posted on Facebook said. “We exercise discipline in the best utilization of that limited space based solely on what our members are buying. We can’t carry every title that our members are interested in reading. We are constantly monitoring book sales, and make decisions to pull books off the shelves frequently based on sales volume to make room for other titles. Politics or controversy over content do not influence our decisions.”

I never understood why actors and retail stores get involved with politics. No matter what side you choose, you will always lose half your customers.

They’re too late - they’ve already revealed themselves. But then, who needs a six-pack of Cheerio’s???
