    They got rid of the international section in dvds which was my go to section. Staff says their “mixed in” now. How do you mix in titles into alphabetical order with other languages? And why ruin a good thing? Seems like they are against having access to movies from other cultures…

    Like most locations of this chain, I've always enjoyed visiting them. Wide selection of many items including books of all genres, movies, music, and more. While the PC gaming section has dwindled a bunch from the early days (a change of the times/industry that can't be helped) it's always worth a quick stop to see what's new and on sale for a good price. The people working here are also always fun to interact with and get assistance from when you want to find something.

    Went in to search for Board Books for infants. Found se real in good shape for me to "read" with my new grandson. Relaxed atmosphere allowed me to browse to my hearts content. Sections were clearly marked so I could find the books I was searching for including parenting and cooking titles. Prices were in line with what I expected to pay for used books-- better than buying new. Prompt attention at the cash register helped me get on my way to my next errands. Would definitely shop here again.
