Well its done.

I mean I wasn't even there for that long, but it still seems to be overwhelmingly sad, and that has a lot to do with Borders' status of not only a shop, but almost a destination. And I suppose it is this unusual take on the retail experience that made it all it was, and led to its downfall too.

The co-workers will be missed. The books will be missed. Even (some of) the customers will be missed.





As the time now is 9:55 our store will be closing in just 5 minutes time. We kindly ask that you take any unwanted reading material to the information desks, and finalise any purchases at the registers located on the ground and lower-ground floors of our store. Thank-you for shopping at Borders Chadstone and for your shopping convenience we will reopen tomorrow morning at nine.
