Too bad, and somewhat hard to understand. I used to love the Borders stores in the UK (while I still lived there).
Browsing Amazon isn't actually much fun. And the Borders stores always seemed packed. What gives.
- phuff 16y agoHonestly, I think a lot of borders' problems are mismanagement, not related to Amazon as much as to other things. For a long time their online presence _was_ amazon, just branded with a borders logo, which means that they weren't competing with Amazon online, which means that they didn't have the distribution chains optimized the way that Amazon does, among other things. So there's certainly a lot of pieces to the puzzle of their demise.
