It makes sense only because I know that staff at Borders' stores have
told me that the Web Site is virtually an entirely separate entity from
the stores.  I have reluctantly begun to crawl back to Tower with my tail
between my legs because at least they have a dedicated CM buyer at their
stores and things are usually filed in the right places.  I went to a
Borders the other day and they had practically nothing that I was looking
for.  These were all items that are definitely not OOP.  I found one of
them sitting on a cart waiting to be shelved.  I decided to wait and do
all my shopping at one time at a decent Tower near where I live.
