Just An Odd Thing I Noticed

 I went to a mega furniture shop in the Darmstadt area yesterday.  Literally a couple thousand displays.  So you come to notice for every book shelf in the background....books.  

I would take a guess....probably in the range of 12,000 to 15,000 books within the store.

The majority?  Probably around 10-percent were Lothar Matthaus's (German soccer legend) life story....from 2012.  

There's around thirty of this mega shops for this 'chain'....so when they put in this order for the book...they probably bought in the way of 100,000 copies of his book.  Course, they probably got the discount price, but they helped to inflate the national number of sales for this particular book.

Just an odd thing.
