Well, before you jumped in to help, I ordered one from B&N online for
$118. A bit more than Amazon, but the website said "usually ships
within 24 hours." They don't charge my card until they ship, so I can
cancel it if they make me wait too long, or if something better comes
along first. This is one of those Xmas gifts supposedly for my wife,
but, well, we both want it...
The funny thing is that when I called the biggest local B&N, the guy
on the phone said hardback books had to be ordered, and that it would
cost me $147. How does B&N expect local stores to compete with their
website?
