Full or Empty - which is the best?

 I just cant decide....is it better to see a display thats nearly empty?  It means the books on it were popular and people wanted to take them home.  On the other hand, it looks a little unloved and sad.

Or - is this better?  Lots of books to choose from, great selection.

I think I like the full display better - if I was going shopping then I would rather pick from a full shelf than a half empty one - otherwise I would wonder if I am getting the dregs that no one else wants!
