    Friendly, fast service. Decent buyback, space out big boxes into smaller sells to maximize your cash. Changes stock everyday, this place rules

    Half Price SLP has a constantly rotating selection of new and used books. The staff is friendly and the categories generally make sense. (Some HPB store shelves things in the most unusual ways). There are two sections of recently acquired books that are great to check out. Of the Twin Cities are HPB stores, this generally has the most constantly rotating selection of books.

    I drive 50 minutes as this is the closest half price books to me, and I will continue to drive this far. I love this store and could get lost in looking for books for hours. Huge selection with reasonable prices.

    I expected a laughable offer and long wait times, but not to listen to them talking trash about my books while I waited. Dude mishandled my books then smirked at me after I asked him to be careful.
