Still taking it home on a ten day
loan, while neat that you can do it...they still should put them on a used book
rack IMO.
Ten days taken home, isn't quite the
same as looking at them while browseing. Were I an employee, I would love it.
But were I the customer, I wouldn't like being sold a used book as a new
one. lol
Because no matter how you slice it,
if it's been out of the store for up to 10 days...it ain't a "new" book. lol

Well very few actually take advantage of it. Most of the time
someone gets one to read on lunch or while there is no other work to be done.
No different really than customers coming in there and getting a book and
sitting down at the table and reading it. They don't stop customers from doing
that. You see it at Books a Million all the time too. They don't ever really
buy the books, they just get them and sit down and read parts of them while in
the store, trying to decide if they do want to buy it.

I figured they would have to
look new, but that's kind of deceptive to the public. I was wondering if
that's what they were doing...
I would suspect if it ever
became public knoweldge it could back fire on them though, because the books
aren't actually *new* if someone else has done read them. Their
used......

Well we have to bring them back in excellent condition, otherwise
we have to pay for them, but yes they go ahead and sell them as new. The
cover can't even be creased though and we are only allowed to keep one for
10 days. After 10 days we either return it or pay for
it.
Now that is
NEAT!
But I have a question, do
they turn around and sale the books as *new* when you don't want
them?

I just don't see the point in even having a
"banned list". I mean yeah completely disagree with their opinions and
views, but isn't that part of what is so great about America is being
able to have those different views. I don't agree with half of what
any of the starts said, but if I started adding them to a list of
stars I would never watch/read/listen to again, I'd have no form of
entertainment. Even though I didn't agree at all with what the Dixie
Chicks said or how they went
about it, I still listen to them. I'm not going to quit buying a cd if
it sounds good. Same goes for Steven King, if the book is good, I
won't stop buying his books. And on the upside while I'm still working
at the bookstore, I'm able to "check out" books like at a library
so I can bring it home and read it and if I like it, I can
buy it, if I don't , I'll take it back. And for the
record, King's newest book, Wolves of the Calla is like #2 or 3
on the Best Sellers list right now.
