Gentlemen,
However, I am deeply troubled by any retailer refusing to sell a best-selling book for no apparent reason, except possibly because the retailer's management disagrees with the author's views. D'Souza is hardly a fringe author and his book is selling briskly on Amazon.
Costco is an excellent organization, and my wife and I enjoy shopping at its warehouses. However, we refuse to support any store that is effectively engaging in censorship or playing political favoritism in the selection of merchandise it decides to make available to its customers. Consequently, unless and until Costco changes its position (or offers a legitimate explanation for its decision), we will be taking our business elsewhere.
Best regards,
[Signed]
As an aside, America: Imagine the World Without Her is currently Amazon's #1 selling book.

That is really weird. A store exercising it's rights and choosing not to carry a book.
Next thing you know...management will be saying that they are entitled to have an opinion on how they run their stores.

You must be very young. I remember when "Catcher in the Rye" just HAD to be in Middle School libraries or it was censorship.
Granted, Costco can do what they choose(this policy is not a store, it is corporate over-riding store management) but as Uncle Ben makes so clear, consumers are also free to choose.
There's always Sam's Club
As Rush sez, we outnumber them.

They are a private business. They can sell what they want. If they are not selling what their customers are buying they will be gone.
Apparently they've reversed their decision and the book will be sold in the warehouses
Costco also filed the Bible under fiction.
