    I always find a wonderful selection of things at reasonable prices. I was so excited to see Tusk Love there and a lovely new Tarot deck.

    I called about a receipt that was thrown away less than a week ago. Not only do they not have the ability to recover receipts nor do they keep records of them. Instead they offer in store credit after a new evaluation which will drive the value down, and will not refund you, even if you have the cards, dates of purchase, exact dollar amounts, etc. Avoid this place like the plague, as I'm fairly certain they are in violation of public finance and recordkeeping laws. I'll also be reporting to the FTC.

    If you're looking to trade in items this is not the place. Dropped off a tub of hardcover books (Charlette Bronte novel from 1984 in excellent condition plus others, as well as dozens of classic movies) and got $3 dollars; Didn't even cover half the price I paid for the one movie I bought. No longer a place that has great prices or deals and now feels more like a barnes and noble or some large retail store. Staff is friendly at least.

    Took in 6 boxes of books to sell and according to them they were only worth $6. Good varieties of books but definitely won’t sell to them again.

    Every time I come here, I find treasures. Usually I drop in for one thing or just to look around. I typically leave with my arms full. They have more than books. There are also board games, CDs, manga, graphic novels and more. The staff has always been friendly and helpful for me and my kids when we visit.
