Xoom Too

A good selection of books and misc things throughout the store, all organized. To the back are their clearance options (which are super low priced) and a children’s section. They’ve got thriller/horror sections, CD/music sections, fiction section, YA/Fantasy sections, and more throughout the store. Staff are friendly and seem open to any questions you may have. Prices overall are as the brand says..prices are very good especially compared to Barnes & Nobles.

Extremely dissapointed bad Low ballers and high prices, i called first to make sure they were open because it was half hour drive there, I took 150+ movies half blueray half DVD all good movies, 3 books one is 97 years old, and an original large star wars imperial shuttle in near mint condition that sell over $300 on ebay. I waited with3 kids for hour and a half while they looked through it all, They offered me $26 for everything. I said what why so low, the woman said they have multiple copies. I said no thanks that is low balling I looked up some of the movies I had and they were selling 5 to 20 dollars at there own store, not including seasons some of my seasons were selling for $40. What a ripoff they lost a customer. Shame. They have highest prices I've seen anywhere for used movies, I don't know who is leaving good reviews saying they are cheap but they are not. I did the math and they offer about 5% buy to sell ratio. I wouldve rather donated them than waste my time.

I’m a vinyl collector, and Half Price Books is one of the few places where I actually find reasonably priced gems. Not junk from your uncle’s garage sale—actual, playable records worth taking home. The staff? Friendly, helpful, and best of all, not breathing down your neck while you flip through the records. And the one-star reviews? Please. They all read like people who thought they’d retire early selling a box of dusty Danielle Steele novels. Spoiler alert: you’re not. Five stars. Always worth a look.

Brought in over 40 hard cover newer fiction books in great condition. They made me wait over 2 hours to determine what they were worth and received $4 and some change. The employees were rude on top of being cheated. Received less than 10 cents per book.

Great Half Price Books location! Tons of special finds and a large clearance section with some great finds. The store wasn't too busy on a Sunday afternoon and check out was super quick. I always check out the auto repair section for shop manuals and what not and this location had a surprising amount of them. Too bad none of them were for any of my cars though!

The store was very clean and packed with goodies! We brought all of our daughter's young children's books and got almost $20 back. My wife was able to get a couple of new books for herself and with the trade out, we only paid .49¢ for both of them. There are also a ton of video games for PlayStation and Xbox, so if you ever need an extra few dollars, bring your books, CD's, video games or DVD's and they will take care of you. Friendly staff too!
