Default Dec issue of Orchids, anyone?

Y'know, Kath, how many books could they have been selling, since they were
asking jacket price? Who pays full price for books anymore? I've purchased
books as trophies, and Amazon sells for a fraction of what AOS was charging.

I wondered if there was some sort of a link between the AOS stopping
selling books and instead referring people to Amazon and the Canadian
bookseller( sorry I forget its name although I'm on their email list) I
didn't know if they were pulling back on all sorts of fronts, the bookstore
being another front to pull back on. It may have been a money losing
proposition to buy/store all the inventory for the books/gifts department.

I'm out of the loop on that front, so I don't know the reason why.
