Bordersstores.com - February 7th 2002.
This is the relatively hidden Borders Website from the early 2000s, a lot of it is very broken, so this is what i could salvage.
This is from around the same time they made a deal to pretty much sell the main Borders.com Domain to Amazon in order to "help" borders have an Online presence, similar to what other retailers like Toys R Us & HMV did, of course as we all know: this was a poor idea, and this one decision would essentially shoot borders in the back of the head.
by the time they established a proper website (Getting Borders.com back) in the mid-late 2000s, it was a case of too little too late, Borders hesitance based on a previous failure online essentially destroyed the company.
Borders lives on in Countries like the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, all of which opened after the company Folded in 2011 thanks to a licensing agreement with independent booksellers & it's current trademark owner, Barnes & Noble. There were several locations in Malaysia as well, but they all shut down sometime in July of 2023.
