For someone like me who buys a lot of books is it worth paying an extra 30% every time to keep a large chain alive? What's the difference between taking a picture of a book and writing down the title? I still buy a lot of books from brick and mortar stores anyways. Also, I think buying the used books at my local bookstore is more profitable for them than buying the new books they sell.

Edit: I'm a Canadian so the special "Canada" pricing makes the price difference 40% sometimes despite our dollar being close to parity. I don't like the disappearance of small bookstores either so I do the best I can to support them. What can brick-and-mortar stores do against Amazon? What Chapters does is sell a lot of other stuff besides books. Stuff they can mark up with higher margins.
