Good place to search, bad place to buy: Barnes and Noble have a great inventory of information on their website and this is a good place to research products. I rarely purchase from Barnes and Noble because of their prices, which are often much higher than their competitors, especially online competitors. It seems they refuse to bring their prices up to date and count on people to be ok paying more because it comes from them. I do like the scrolling graphic at the top of their main page, this is a good attention grabber. Far too much content on the main page. Information should be concise, with a few product highlights and categories tabs, which are at the top, should stay, other than that, it's way too busy. I'm not one to pay more than necessary for a product, but there must be enough people who are, to keep B\u0026N in business.
