I've been driving by for years and decided to finally go in and check out the comic book collection. The selection was pretty sizable and found some gems among the chaos (the charm). I usually wouldn't bother with reviews but wanted to say that the ''grumpy old man'' was super nice to me, told me to come back, and made a sassy little joke as well. I ended up walking out with way more than I expected since the prices were so good. thanks!

I love this place. Yes it’s messy, the guy is not friendly, and I have to use the flashlight on my phone to look in the classics section because its in such a dark corner. but the books are cheap and well-organized and i always find magical things. Go for the books, not the customer service.

I had a fabulous experience book hunting at Bingo Used Books. Had a vast selection of unique titles within the genres I like (History, Linguistics, Health, & Business) at incredibly reasonable prices. The staff member was very kind & provided great customer service! I highly recommend this store to any lovers of literature!

This shop offers a huge selection of excellent books at surprisingly low prices. Yes, there are some piles of books on the floor that you have to be careful not to knock over - but so what? It is a secondhand bookstore, after all! My experience of the staff working there is that they are both friendly and helpful, in spite of some reviews to the contrary My only complaint is that their Facebook page is still talking about a Memorial Day Sale. Go there if you love books and enjoy browsing in a large shop with books in all categories as I do. You will not be disappointed.

Is there any books you won't take. I have alot of books I don't read.

Anthony Rodriguez | Aug 16, 2021

It just depends on our stock at the moment. Generally speaking though, We don't take heavily damaged books unless it is something extremely rare or special. We also don't take big old encyclopedia sets. Thanks

Do you have a copy of book, Homeopathy and ADHD?

Jay Thakar | Aug 17, 2019
Sheryn Schwartzenhauer | Aug 17, 2019

A highly recommended book on handling ADHD naturally is called No More ADHD, by Dr Ann Block. Used copies are available on Amazon for $7-10. The specific book you're searching for might also best be found that way. Though I must say, when it comes to books, I relish a good search, and I always find books that satisfy my various needs at Bingo Books.
