I'm not really surprised. They don't sell things like Maxim for the same reason. Or porn.
The one near my home has a policy to keep a sheet of solid colored plastic over the ladies magazines deemed "racy" covering everything but the title. It's just how the company powers that be have decided to be.
But it's not on the cover, and they are selling it on the website, so why not just sell it in stores but wrapped in plastic so people can't open it in stores?
They banned Sheryl Crow's (I think, can't remember) CD that encouraged kids to buy guns. I think it's just they have decided that there are certain things they don't want to carry.
No, I understand about their banning-stuff position - that's their right. And it's also their right to carry some things on the website but not in stores but such a practise, when something is easily sealable, is inherently inconsistent.
I sent it out mid-last-week, once I was back in the office and recovered from my stomach bug. It should be there by the start of this coming week, at least...
I'll be looking for it, then. Thanks. It might be here already, actually. It won't fit in my box, so the apt people might have it. I'll check on my way to school today.
