The shelves of older GN's are cover price--no markup on old stuff so it's a good way to find old odds and ends. They're not a huge spot, but the owner is very attentive without being overbearing and is willing to work with you a bit on price, too for some items like back issues where the upfront investment is smaller--just be reasonable with your asks. I'm not a new comics reader but I encourage anyone who is to establish your pull folder here and help these guys' cash flow as much as possible, we need them to hang around in Lex!

Complaints of bad service... I'd have to agree.

It was fine for us bc we were perusing but it certainly did not amplify our experience.

I'm from out of town and have been trying to do business with this store over the past two years…read morewhen I been coming to deal with family issues. I've had mixed to declining results and, with this last visit, I am done! The customer service has always been weak and now I'm at the breaking point. Because I have limited time each visit, I try to email a list of what I'm looking for in advance. Management either doesn't check their email or simply don't care. Last week, I called twice and unfortunately got the same person who thoroughly discouraged emailing in favor of coming in because "it would be easier" and "they don't have time to look." Easier for whom? Certainly not the returning costomer. Since they're close to the airport and I had time, I stopped in anyway on Fri. I spoke with who I believe to be the owner and he also wasn't too interested in making time to check books that he said he had in the back that were recently purchased. They were apparently getting ready for a sale the next day and possibly making a sale in the moment was clearly not that important. They made a copy of my list, took my name and number and said they would check. I made it clear that I was leaving Mon, today. As of 1:00, no call. So I called the store. The clerk who answered has no idea I'm talking about and was very dismissive, and the owner isn't there until tomorrow. They don't talk their employees anymore than their customers. So, that's it. I've had it with them and won't be going back even if they had the hardest to find book on my list. One of the worst shops I've ever been to for customer service. Shame on me for having given them multiple chances to do right.

We got a great deal on our cards, but... wtf? Things like that will make the Mr. swear off a place for good so, guess we're still on the hunt for a game shop... (le sigh)

I love the staff here - they are all quirky, friendly, and always willing to help you find something. Great trip this week!

Terrible Place to Sell Books - Avoid!…read more If you're thinking about selling books to Half Price Books, DON'T waste your time! They offer insultingly low payouts, no matter the quality or value of your books. I recently brought in several thick, high-quality books and was given barely anything for them. The pricing process is completely opaque, with no explanation of how they determine value. To make things worse, customer service is awful. The employees seem uninterested and dismissive, acting as if they're doing you a favor by taking your books off your hands. There's no negotiation, no respect for sellers, and no reason to bring your books here unless you want to be ripped off. Save yourself the frustration--sell elsewhere or donate your books to people who will actually appreciate them!
