“always a fun hunt here and always walk out with more than i planned to lol. the employees have always been helpful and the book sorting/pricing process is pretty fast if you're bringing in books to trade/sell. pricing is fair and there is a huge selection. came in looking for U2 one day and found all these in a few minutes 😂”
— Campbell Morgan“If you want to read or collect it then they probably have it here. My wife and I stumbled upon this bookstore while on vacation. There's so much in here including a large Christian books section. We found some well known titles but also some lesser known ones that were interesting to browse. The prices are not cheap but they are reasonable. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.”
— Joseph Moore“This place is about 6,000 sqft of used books, video games, gaming systems and controllers, collectable toys, comic books(not a large selection), used musical instruments, used cameras and lenses, bobble heads, used records, used CDs, used puzzles, used dolls, and I'm sure I'm missing a few other things. You can buy, sell, or trade all these items there.”
— Chris Hampton“I came looking for vinyl records and was underwhelmed with the selection. However - they were very well organized, and very well priced. If you are just starting out your collection, or if you are looking for country (they have a LOT), you may want to check out this place. The place was packed on a Sunday afternoon. Two levels and a LOT of stuff!”
