If you're in the market for a library, but you just don't have any "suitable" books*, then have we ever found the ideal service for you! Behold: Books by the Foot!


Offered by the venerable Strand Book store, Books by the Foot will sell you a complete library of books, with prices ranging from $400 per foot (for antique, leather-bound, primarily 19th century novels) to $10 per foot (for crappy hardbacks that they couldn't sell anyway with their dust jackets removed).

*Because you're a coward who keeps all those romance novels that you actually read in an unmarked box in your closet.
