Dead authors = hot steal?
April 19th, 2007[ General ]
I’m in Toronto today and stopped into a Chapters hoping to grab a copy of Vonnegut’s God Bless you, Mr. Rosewater. I asked for assistance as there were literally none on the shelf. The chapters guy checked the computer which said there should be some. He wandered off and returned to tell me that all copies are behind the information desk as they’ve become hot items for theft. Huh? How does that work?
So if you’re in chapters and can’t find your Vonnegut fix on the shelf, make sure you ask. I’m still confused.
