Sweet little Oder lady who is super helpful, friendly and she is a hard worker. I may not always find what I am looking for - as is normal at a used book store - but I have always found something worth purchasing.

When we camp up in Northern Maine, we will often stop here as a day trip. Very few bookstores like…read morethis still exist in Maine, and it is massive! Books on every subject you can imagine! If you are looking for something the store probably has it. Old books to new books, there are thousands. If it wasn't 4 hours north of me I'd shop there all the time! Well organized and cool to look through the different rooms. The service is usually pretty good and they'll help you find whatever you're looking for. Prices are pretty reasonable on the books as well, though some are priced higher than others. Now to the negatives. There isn't a public restroom. With a shop this big, there should be. If you need to use a restroom you have to leave and find one elsewhere, then return if you want to keep shopping. It's really inconvenient. A big problem is that the shop is CASH ONLY, with no ATM available. I get why smaller businesses opt out of credit/debit cards, but this bookstore is big (in size) and a lot of people, myself included, rarely carry cash. Like with the restroom, you have to leave to find an ATM somewhere to be able to pay for your books.

Strange is a great little comic shop; the Fredericton location is part of a small chain that also…read morehas stores in Halifax and Dartmouth. They have a great selection of issues, trades, graphic novels, action figures and some other fun stuff. I stopped in to check out some comics, so I didn't have an eye out for games. I love that there's a section that highlights recommendations from staff. Sometimes they'll also take trades for cash or credit, but I recommend calling in advance for that. Parking is available on the street; I managed to get the spot directly in front of the store! Make sure to check it out!

I love used book stores, but this one is not a favorite. I went here once about three years ago. It…read morewas messy, and the owner was incredibly snooty. However, I did find some used books that I wanted, and I walked out with a bunch of books and paid less than 10 bucks. I went back there yesterday, as my daughters were looking forward to getting some new ((to them)) books, and the place was in even worse shape. A few places couldn't be navigated without being super careful about tripping over books on the floor. My 14 year old daughter wanted to immediately clean the place. In the end, we got three books in total. While trying to pay, the owner asked my husband "So, where are you visiting from?". ((Pretty assumptive, as we only live slightly north of Calais)) They were apparently "new", and while I was at the door just waiting to leave, I thought I heard the total wrong. Turned out she charged us full list price for the books. $37 dollars for 3 books. I left feeling totally scammed, because I know, and when I got home I checked Amazon, we could of gotten those same books, used for less than $4 in total, and new, less than $15 in total. I'm all for shopping local, but I will never go here again. Not a single store charges the full list price anymore, and the owner is really condescending. If you step foot in this store, be prepared to pretend you know nothing about books, authors, or how to use Amazon.

I never thought I would say this about a book store, but I hated this place. I love used book…read morestores with piles of books around, overstocked for sure. It gives me a sense of adventure. But this place was just downright filthy and cluttered and it gave me the creeps. The lady who was there the day I went in was totally inattentive and in the middle of our conversation, she answered her phone and started a personal phone call. Piles of papers laying around and the books that were categorized were not organized to make it easy to read the spines, with one going one way and the other one going the other way. I love the concept old cluttered book stores and hope to own my own some day, but his place is a disgrace.
