Back to the good old days, before the Net Book Agreement collapsed, when the underlying message was "Here are the books. Either buy them or fuck off." The rot set in after 1995.
I remember having 3 for 2 promotions and having to explain "No, it's not three books for £2."

How about "Buy 2 Kindles get 1 Free"?
From today's Guardian, How Waterstones Killed Bookselling
" "We seem to be entering a golden age of independent bookselling", say literary agents Sarah Lutyens and Felicity Rubinstein who opened their own shop a few weeks ago in west London. "
A Golden Age, Jon. Can you feel the heat of the Bright New Dawn?

Mike - *say literary agents Sarah Lutyens and Felicity Rubinstein who opened their own shop a few weeks ago in west London*. And who are fucking rolling in it (the clue is in their surnames).
West London you say? Booksellers to the new Tory dawn.
It was ever thus.
