The folks at San Francisco based book store Bookmine have compiled a list of awesome conversations they have had with customers over the years. Here's one of my favorites:
Hi, I am looking for an old book.
What's the title?
I don't remember.
OK. Who is the author?
Sorry, can't remember that either.
OK, you are making it a little tough here. What was it about?
I don't remember. But it was my favorite book when I was little.
I don't think I can help you.
OK, thanks for your help.
Or this one:
Older guy comes in...
I'm here for an appraisal.
I charge for appraisals.
No, I don't want to pay for nothing.
What do you have?
A book I wrote. It's about gambling.
Has it been published?
No, that's why I need a (sic) appraisal.
I only deal in old books.
Hey, gambling is old. It's been around a long time.
I don't think I can help you.
Yea I know, you're really wasting my time.
