I don't know if this is deeply undervalued, or just a cigar butt. Either way, it's tough to turn down a stock selling at half of net tangible assets while the company still turns a profit. Books-A-Million also doesn't have the debt burden that killed Borders.

Book stores are on the decline, but I don't think they'll completely disappear.

cheap, and can only go up,up, and away....with Borders closing all their stores, could be a a big buy.

With a P/E around 6 and selling below book, this stock is so cheap right now that it is almost impossible not to do well, despite the slow or no growth. It offers good yield and has a great balance sheet.
