Yes, Fred Puppet, BAMM is a traditional retailer with a relatively friendly webpage. Book customers aren't like other customers: The majority of us do not go into a store looking for a particular title. We browse, we read a chapter & we buy the book. BAMM stores cater to this trade. With their website, they can now also pick up the person who only buys off the best seller lists or those of us who buy out of print books. Have tried AMZN several times: they could never get the out of print books I wanted. (In fact, 1 small website got us a response within 20 min. of placing an order, that they had not only found the book, but an autographed first edition, at our price.)
