I guess that's the secret to staying in business nowadays: Extremely good CS, home delivery and competent staff. In those big stores they are mostly apt to bring the books back to their place. When asked if they read the books they are recommending, they can't. They are recommending those books with the highest margin to everyone and that's it.

When I was young the vendor at my then favourite bookstore shaped my tastes tremendously with her recommendations and I am still grateful to her.
