Cheaper and more convenient to order online. Sorry, that is the wave of the future. Don’t have to pay for a building, don’t have to hire staff. It’s an easy decission to make business wise. If Walden Books and friends cannot adapt, they will become extinct.
but hunting in the store, especially a old book store, is so much fun. pick up a book. smell it. turn the pages, let them just fall open where they want to fall. Much better than a flyleaf.
