I know these books are a geat deal on the web ($3) but I can't imagine the whole set of Great Illustrated Classics being out of stock. Even more boggling is that the website says the books are temporarily unavailable to order, not out of stock..

This is why Chapters needs a "find it in store" function on their website. This is one competitive advantage they would have had over Amazon. But, I suppose they felt they were safe and didn't bother.
If they'd cut back on the gay music, the gay gifts and the gay colours and get back into bookselling, they might have a chance. But I wouldn't be surprised if the company is bought up by someone else in a few years... or maybe they will keep the B&M, get out of the online business and just become an Amazon associate
