Glad I picked it up early

While I feel somewhat guilty for grabbing VAF before the street date, I am so glad I did. I was back at the store today, my first trip since the release date, and there were NONE left! When I picked mine up there were about 8 on the shelf. All gone one week later, two days after official release.

Glad you got it. It does not stay on the shelf long here either. I went with on of my friends one night they had several copies. Went back the next day all gone.

What you might want to do is ask if they can hold it for you especially if the release date is a few away.

Borders here will. They like to keep their readers happy .

Re: Glad I picked it up early

i went back to buy 2 more(1 for my mother, 1 for my cousin) i haven't been able to find any here either. I had to ask they hold them if/when they come in. they aren't even sure.

They keep asking to read mine, but i don't want to give it up yet!!

I buy all my books at Wal-Mart so can't ask them to hold. If I were using a bookstore, they would. So that's why I pick them up when I see them, even if it is a bit early. It's that, or not get them for a few weeks and I've gotta' have 'em NOW!

Re: Glad I picked it up early

Denise, even walmart has online ordering. Did you know.....as long as a store has it somewhere, its in the wearhouse, you can order it and have it sent to your store so you can pick it up without paying for shipping!
I love that, its great!!

Re: Glad I picked it up early

I didn't know that. Thanks for the info; I have to check it out.

But the other problem I have is that I like to have the book in the best shape possible. So I go through the books on the shelf and get the one that has the fewest scrapes, etc. I'm a bit obsessive compulsive about my books, can you tell?

Re: Glad I picked it up early

I have ordered movies from them. Personally I like to turn them to make sure they are not broke. If you have do order then open the package then and there. Wal-Mart is good at if you are not satisfied then they will replace.

Re: Glad I picked it up early

yea, I have bought few things that way. They will rplace it right then and there!!(as long as it is in here stock,) I did have to wait once, because I ordered something they carried online but in the store by me so they ordered another one.
