When the Borders by my apartment liquidated, they brought in a ton of stuff from other places (mostly toys and games) and sold them with the books. On the final day, books in the store were either $1, $3 or $5. A bunch of the Queens flea market vendors just bought everything they could put in their vans with the idea that they'd sell them at the fleas for a few bucks more. I miss the local Borders - so few clean restrooms in New York when you're walking around and nature calls. TVG -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
