Currently, 12 stores in Ohio are offering huge discounts to their patrons as an unforeseen business prepares to close in a few weeks.
Half Price Books, a rival to Barnes & Noble, is scheduled to close in a few weeks in the Cincinnati, Ohio, region.
A popular store that sells best-sellers at discounted prices, Northgate is located just 24 minutes outside of the city.
However, a notice in the window informing visitors of the store’s impending closure greets them as they arrive, according to local CBS station WKRC-TV.
Part of the message says, “We wish we could stay here at Northgate, we have great customers.”
As to the correspondence, Half Price Books was forced to close its property after 21 years of occupancy since they were unable to reach a consensus on a new lease.

On July 7, the business will close.
Around 120 sites are still operated under the business, with 12 of those being in Ohio.
Customers are notified in the closing notification that they may still use their gift cards at all other Half Price Books shops as well as online, even though the Northgate site has closed.
It said, “We are grateful for all of the supportive remarks and the fervor the community has shown throughout this change.”
About the other sites that are still open, it said, “Thank you, and we look forward to many more years of reading and recycling together.”
I regret having to close the store. One customer bemoaned, “I loved going into the store and selling my gently used grandson’s books and buying other books he picked out.”
Still, another said, “Another piece of my childhood gone.”
We have only recently relocated here, but we have visited twice. Our excitement for going to the bookshop every week was palpable. And a third said, “This is upsetting.
Not everyone in Northgate is as fortunate as others, though, as there are still other Half Price Book stores and even rival bookshops.
