Times Square will be changing from having a Page One to Page None as its beloved bookstore is closing down today after over 10 years.
On Sunday, crowds turned out in force and lined up outside the store to try to snap up some of the books on sale at up to 90 percent off, reports Apple Daily.
The store found itself over capacity to the point that that they stopped letting people in at 6 pm, a full four hours before their normal closing time.
One girl even fainted, with some witnesses suggesting she was overwhelmed by the crowd and stifling air.
With Dymocks gone and this store closing down, there are fewer and fewer places for Hongkongers to buy English-language books.
Page One, which used to have several locations on Hong Kong Island, will now only be found at the airport, Festival Walk and Harbour City.
