Whaaaaaaaat?!

Please: name this store. If they're going to behave like that they have no right to ass-covering anonymity. The previous comment is quite right: if their name is named (or if they have the cojones to step up and name themselves) they'll never see a lick of business from any AT reader ever again, and that's just as it should be.

Books are books. They aren't furniture. They exist to be read. If you aren't reading them, don't buy them. We'd all laugh at someone who bought an apartment in Paris that they never visited, simply so they could say they had an apartment in Paris. Or a Lamborghini that they couldn't drive. Or a $300,000 kitchen when they need to look at the manual to use a microwave.

It's the fakeness of this that's making so many people so offended.

(And to everyone who's positing maybe-he's-a-reader-but scenarios, there's one obvious flaw in your logic: if this client was a reader, his interior decorator wouldn't be buying his books. He would.)

Power Support make a similar stand in the same orientation which costs appreciably less -- $40 -- for only slightly less shininess.

This'd be a harder choice if it was real wood, but three thousand dollars for MDF? Not.
