My experience with Crosswords so far has been great. @anup Thanks for the tip dude. I checked out the Crosswords at Saket on Sunday and it is great! I felt like Scrooge McDuck diving into money. I wanted to dive in and swim through the huge collection of books :) I agree with you Rahul. My experience with Crosswords so far has been great.

As for the ambience part of it i vouch for crossword being better than any other bookstore currently in the country.. They are the only book store which give you browsing space and leave u undisturbed for long. I used to like oxford earlier but currently oxford mumbai is an empty store with nothing to offer. When money is less we go to strand but when its quality i still depend on crossword to deliver at any given point of time. i dis agree with crossword staff not being helpful. i face the problem in any other bookstore inclding teksons and oxford.

Because when I made my card, the lady noted my details in a register. But I do agree with you about Oxford Book Store. Love the ambience of the store. Especially loved the large oval reading couches (if you can call them that). And of course being a foodie, I liked the grub at Cha Bar (which I personally think is yummier and cheaper than what Cafe Turtle dishes out.) But like you said. It's definitely a personal experience. Also delighted to note that you noticed the low shelves meant for us short people, being so tall yourself :) @ Rajesh

I simply LOVE buying my books from Full Circle. You are right they can do better on marketing but there is a certain charm of that squeaking wooden floor, that personal attention that you get. I take my mooda and read whenever I am at Khan. In fact, I don't even buy from GK, because the feel of the store is so different. The cards are indeed a problem but I have had the lady who manages the store help me out by looking for my details on the computer and the last time I was there I got the most pleasant surprise- thanks to points on my card, I only needed to pay 400 odd for purchase actually worth 900 or so...I was just too delighted :). Crossword looks sexy, plays lovely music but ask the staff to find you a book, they will NEVER be able to help you. Another place I like is Oxford Book Store. I think they have put their minds to also make it friendlier for the customer, even the top shelf is easy to reach for someone who may not be very tall. Nice post. Keep writing. Cheers.

Ok I was actually thinking about that conversation which you mentioned with one particular lady in Khan market, could.. you elaborate that on more ? How about a blog-post just re-collect what-ever you remember and whatever comes to mind and the essence of 'customer service' to it. From what I re-collect, your experience was of slightly different kind with dominance from customer for no particular reasons. Gud one ;)
