While Borders Group filed for BK in February, the intent of the BK judge was to find a buyer (mostly private equity) to operate the company as an ongoing concern for their remaining 400 or so stores. Unchanged payment terms from publishers and lease terms from retail landlords have made that seemingly unlikely.
Final date for bids was today, and the only bidders left are liquidators. Auction is on Tuesday, and if the bone pickers win, as it appears they will, all the remaining stores will be closed in short order.

I don't see where I'm not up to date.

If so that sucks. I bought Wayne's 911 books (both of them) there and always found it a really cool place to go chill out, relax and do a little reading/research.
I never was a fan of Seattle's Best. Ugh. I did patronize the one in there a few times but it never was my favorite.
RIP. Sad.

Yes, the Pike one is closing if not all done. They had the signs out, "Inventory Close Out."
