That is a surprise, a Borders store opened here in Perth a few years ago. When I worked in the book trade, the smaller traders were terrified Borders would decimate the "little guys"...some fell by the wayside - but the book trade is hard...very small profit margins. Wonder if this will just be a US happening...I believe Woolworths folded in Britain, but here in Aus. they are one of the big two...Coles being the other.
