Hassan Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 (edited) Why? I feel excluded and rejected by the book selling establishment. I mean yes. At my Barns and Noble I tend to only buy cheep hot tea ($1.35 with membership ). And to read many books while only reading them and not buying them. And to leave the books where I was suddenly and not putting them back. And I tend to give the tellers a lot of trouble by making them track down obscure authors with difficult to spell names. And I have made fun of the store in the past, specifically the cheesy music they play And I often make fun of the cashiers who work in the Cafe who have to explain to disgruntled customers that they are not a *real* Starbucks but simply sell Starbucks coffee and try to imitate a Starbucks I also have a healthy curiosity and consequently make them explain to me what all the expensive stuff is (right before I get my tea) "What is a Quiche?" "So do they Back the Custard?" "What is Che?" "Well why do they call it Che if it's not Russian?" "Because Russian make tea by adding hot water to concentrate" (btw do NOT drink black tea concentrate pure ) But other then that I really am a model customer Why doesn't Boarders want me?

Resurrexi Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 I buy most of my books at an eccentric locally-owned bookstore that specializes in theology and patristics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hassan Posted August 15, 2009 Author Share Posted August 15, 2009 I have been to a Boarders before. I bought Kierkegaard's "Practices in Christianity" for my grandfather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuoteMan Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 I doubt they look into the personal life of customers. We have a Logo's store right by our house, and they have a great selection of religious books. Nihil likes the religious section at Chapters.
