I prefer Borders method of providing browsing copy too. Have seen too many bad browsing habit (err, saliva-slicked fingers anyone?), I definitely will not buy any unwrapped copy unless if I really, REALLY have no other choice.

i prefer Borders and Kino style with browsing copy. unlike popular where they wrap most of their books, and yeah u can ask for one of their assistants to unwrap the book, but usually its hard to find one that is available, they always look busy and i dont really like bothering ppl like that.

nobody mention POPULAR?
popular pasar seni has browsing copies too, especially for Harry Potter series.
but not much other browsing copies.

however, some fictions are unwrapped so I can juz flip through, read a chapter to see if its interesting~

i prefer kino style...

coz i'm assure where the books are brand new n virgin.

while  borders style is unwrapped books... but there's too many people reading the books till it's no longer brand new and it's looks like 2nd hand / yellowish and torn / bended... it's EXTREMELY bad conditions.

Popular books are not tat updated, however bcoz most of them are not wrapped, i prefer to go there.
