Barnes and Noble/Borders... is there a way to check to see if they have certain books at the store?

Question

They show all the books online but they're not always available at certain stores...anyway I can check that online? Don't wanna call them up because I got a long long list

Answer 1

You can check Borders stock online at http://www.bordersstores.com/index.jsp
But Barnes & Noble does not have a way to check online, you'll have to call the store.

Answer 2

You can look on the Internet for Barnes and Noble to see if a specific store has what you need. I don't know about Borders but I would guess they do the same to compete.

Answer 3

For Borders, go to http://www.bordersstores.com and click on the "Search Inventory" link. Before you can search the inventory, you'll need to Add Your Stores (just put in your city, state and a list of the nearest locations will come up). After you have a list of "My Stores," THEN you can search the inventory for all your stores.

Unfortunately, Barnes and Noble doesn't have this option on its website.

Answer 4

Call them. Both companies have been VERY helpful over the phone when I try to find books.

Answer 5

For either you can get the isbn of the book, call, and make someone look it up to see if it's in stock. On borders.com, i think you can order it for in-store pickup. they won't let you do that unless they have it.

Answer 6

go on there website and type in what u want and there u go
