- NCNels Chellen2 days ago5.0I can’t say enough good about Half Price Books. I have been shopping here for decades and occasionally sell my used books and music here. They also offer to recycle things for me that no longer have value otherwise. The employees are always nice and helpful.

- DPDeanna Lynn PolingNov 14, 20254.0Ok I have mixed review for this place. If you're going in there to just buy a book they've got a great selection and also some new stuff. If you're going in there to sell back your books not so much. I took 2 boxes full of only good to excellent quality books and I only got $7. I just recently took in one book of cds another box of dvds, some not even opened yet and another box of good to excellent books. At least I got $25. I get it. They are selling your books for you but dang it felt like getting ribbed off. I still gave them a four rating but because of those I could not give them a 5.
- SBSarah Rose BattlesOct 29, 20254.0I love the religion books section at this Half Price books - I think they're near a couple of religiously affiliated colleges/seminaries, so that improves the selection. The reason I am rating this location four stars: after buying several paperbacks in the clearance section for $3 each, I peeled of the clearance stickers and found that the original pre-clearance price was less than $3! Other HPB locations use both $3 and $1 stickers for clearance, guess everything is just $3 here.
