Of course, if a large chain bookstore doesnt have your book in stock doesnt mean a small independent one will. Probably even less of a chance.

I also noticed since joining MR that new/used independent bookstores are more prevalent in certain areas of the country. Some areas like mine have few-to-none. So the big box store is all we have. The indies cant afford the leases.

For laughs I googled used bookstores and the closest one was 35 miles away one way.
