I've heard about this for a while now but the Borders here is still going strong, though they do seem to have a particularly large amount of clearance titles lately. Whatever, support local booksellers. They can often get you the exact same books you'd get at a Barnes & Noble for cheaper and with a personal touch that's leagues ahead of what the chains will give you.
