This place has always been great. We've donated hundreds of books here and bought hundreds more. Been going here for 15 years since they've been off fry. I brought a container of books to them like we always do. The guy behind the counter gave me a box to put them in. He looked for their smallest one. Never made eye contact. Looked at the ground entire time. He said i have to get them all in there with the lid on. I got all the books into their box except for 7. I went in and the now lady behind the counter refused my books because i couldn't get them all in the box. No exceptions because they just couldn't handle 7 more books. Just was really important to stand firm. You won KBB. I F'd around and found out. Both employees were really apathetic. Just terrible service. I dont even care for store credit. If they'd had just looked at them and didnt give me penny, i wouldn't have cared. These were just kids mostly books i dont want throw away. I'd just have been happy to get books to kids. I'm not a write a review guy but whats really terrible is we made the effort to schedule an appointment with them, spent 15 minutes outside just to transfer books from one box to another. I respected their process but they showed such little regard and value to our time as a customer.

Do you buy used books ?

Johnny Lopez | Oct 28, 2018
Ben Shull | Oct 28, 2018

Yes they do buy used books. Generally the used books are giving a credit on your account towards buying other used books at their location. I've never heard of them paying cash for used books in any situation. Please note the business doesn't answer questions here, the questions are being answered by people from the general Community who are familiar with the business. We have found their credit towards our account to be quite generous for the used books that we've taken in. Every time we visit they seem to have something else that we want and we walk out with quite a few books in hand.
