Actually the order is usually 1) resold and then 2) bought before I could get safely out the door with all the $$ still in my pocket.

We got a used book seller in town. I do not even want to think about how much money I left there over the last 5 years.

Ages ago I was in downtown Cincinnati (nearest "big" city) and just wandering around to kill time, and I stumbled on this store called Acres of Books.

And it was. Literally. Acres. It was a small storefront in width but turned out to be deep and three stories high, and they had all three stories lined with shelves. Flooring taken out between them... the proprietor had one of those huge ladders on rollers that he'd use to find whatever you asked for, if he had it. Just a walkway around the edges of the top floor where he or you could go up and browse, but still needed a shorter ladder for those shelves because they also went straight up to the ceiling of that level.

For the short time I was able to spend there, I believed there really was a God.

Sadly I went back a couple years later and couldn't find it. Tried looking them up in the phone book but no listing, so they must've closed. I can't imagine what happened to all those books.
