This is a really great used bookstore. Ive been looking for a used bookstore thats organized, reasonably priced, and MARTA accessible since I moved here and Im glad to say that I finally found one. I primarily buy computer science books, which can get expensive even when buying used. My purchases so far have been roughly on par with or even cheaper than Amazon for the same titles. They were in better condition than the cheapest offerings from Amazon; there was no highlighting, the covers and spines are clean and intact, and theres no water damage in any of the books Ive bought. The customer service is friendly and the atmosphere is nice. They dont pay much for books if youre selling them; I got $2 for a fairly recent (2015) book in great condition. But if I were concerned about getting the most money from reselling it, I would have sold it on Amazon. I just wanted to free up some space on my shelf and use the credit to offset the cost of something else that caught my eye.

The story has a decent selection of titles but it is most items that were resold to the store, so its limited. You have to go to the store directly and you cannot search the location online to see if they carry a title you want. The reselling of books to this company is somewhat shady. The price they quote you is farless then what you would get if you sold it online yourself. And many people have complained online about there buy back policy and pricing methods. Overall the store is good in its clean, organized and features local authors and events. Again my 3 star rating is based on the small selection they carry, their buy back service and some difficulty in finding a titles at the store when you are searching for something.

Best book store ever. Im an avid comic reader and collector. Mindeesa just spent 20 minutes looking for a comic for me over the phone. The professionalism and true care she had shown me sets the standard. Aaron is the other truly amazing person I look forward to greet every week. The man is kind, generous, and always has something cool for me to look through. These people are the best. Everyone should check out the store, always has great stuff and hidden gems.

The staff is not very welcoming or knowledgeable. Feels like a big store chain. I just exhanged 14 books for $3.50. I wanted to get rid of them for sure, but I couldnt even exchange 14 books for one of the "half-price books" on the shelves to put in context. Probably will buy online or try someplace else for credit like I usually do.

Unless your books are high-end, recent and popular, and in excellent condition, dont expect anything from the buying service. They gave me $8 for 10 boxes of really good design, art and architecture books. Better to sell them for fifty cents each at a garage sale, or just donate. Not worth my time carrying them in to the store....

Not only is there an incredible selection of books, DVDs, music and video games here, but if you wish to sell them your stuff, they offer you cash. This is unlike 2nd and Charles, which offers you a higher value if you elect to take it as store credit, but offers you less to take it as cash. Youre sure to find something cool here!

I will continue to purchase books here but I will not sell any there again. I thought 16 hard cover books and 4 paper backs (like new condition) would pay more than $3.00. If I wasnt trying to declutter I wouldve taken them back home. I will just continue to donate my books in the future.

Poor customer service, it is a very big store the idea is right you can buy other people books for half price and you can sell your books but they need better customer service no one is there to help help you find whatever youre looking for

This store has a large variety of books and just about everything. The little nick knacks and novelties are amazing. The staff is super friendly. I never walk out empty handed. Its my new closest and favorite bookstore.

I really like this book store. The last used bookstore I went to was crowded and the impossible to find what I needed. This store is organized clean and the employees are friendly. The prices are very competitive.

I have to drag my husband out of here! Big selection of books, but they are somewhat stingy/picky when buying books. We always come here when we visit Atlanta.
