I love books. Ergo, I love bookstores. In an age of mass media consumption, the neighborhood…read morebookstore is a welcomed respite. The Buchladen Neusser fills that role admirably in Nippes. Let's start with the positives. It is a wonderful book shopping atmosphere with a very friendly and knowledgeable staff. The shop has its own personality in the middle of downtown Nippes. If you're sole looking for atmosphere and nostalgia, then this business is an important landmark. For some people, supporting local business is their primary value. If that's the case, then the Buchladen is a must-shop. However, in terms of convenience and price, the shop is lacking. The selection is limited and the prices are not competitive compared to the larger stores. If your priority is immediate selection, your better off at a larger store. If price is your thing, no store can compete with the Internet.
