Selection at Blockbuster going downhill fast

12.146.67.2

Are any of you seeing this?

The two closest Blockbuster stores to my home have dramatically reduced their selection of non-new releases.

Tried to pick up Around the World in 80 days....nutin....not Niven or Brosnan.

Then looked for Pride & Prejudice (the wonderful BBC/A&E version)...nutin

Now I have rented these at Blockbuster before....several times.

Curiosity piqued, I started looking....

Monty Python & the Holy Grail....Nutin

Arsenic & Old Lace.....nope

Rope......uh -uh.

Magnificent Seven...not here either.

and the kicker.....To Catch a Thief....nowhere in sight!

What gives! These are all titles I have rented from this place before.

In answer to my own question, I suspect the shelf space being rapidly absorbed by DVDs requires them to slough off slow rentals. What a shame.

Is it the same in you neck of the woods?
