1. this is a total guess, but maybe d+m is in not in chapters
good books following its bankruptcy or restructuring or whatever
you want to call it earlier this year... no cash or swag for
favourable brand positioning?    2. More than likely
chapters/indigo is more concerned with all their merchandise
products; candles, mugs and such drek, to care about books
anymore. I find it's becoming very unreader friendly to shop at
their stores - like they just expect you to shop online if you
really want a book.     ~ j.    3. yes, chapers's policies are
more than a little frustrating. I don't know what I find more
frightening - a world with only chapters, or a world without
chapters OR any other bookstores...
