Border Influence?

Rellum

This wouldn't have something to do with Borders opening in town, would it? Not that I ever bought anything at Rellum anyway.

Seeing as how Rellims' prices are usually 120% higher than anywhere else, a 50% reduction is probably a good start.

I suspect Borders isn't to blame -- after all Rellim's have survived with the significantly cooler Boffins just up the road for some years now.

But I have always wondered how they survived at all, considering there never seems to be anyone in their store, least not when I'm there ...

Would Borders and Rellims' stock/market have heaps of crossover? If I liked model aeroplanes or wanted to know how my Land Rover worked (if I had one) then I might venture into Rellims but it always looks a bit too technical for a non-practical type like me. On the other hand, I go to Boffins whenever I pass by. Would Rellims' customers be the sort to want to have a latte while browsing?
