    When I have some extra time I've been known to wander bookstores. I stopped into 1/2 price and was surprised that it had much more than books. There were games, records, dvd, collectible toys and more at this location. Lots of variety to explore. When it came to books they are organized by genre and then author. If you're looking for one that fits into multiple genres, you might have to dig a little deeper or ask for help. In addition to all of the books on the shelves, they do a good job of displaying them, and also carry some new releases that you can get at a slightly discounted price. Overall, I was impressed with the amount of inventory they had, and think that anyone could easily find a book or two to go home with from this location. They do also purchased used books here and you can drop them off at the counter for them to assess and then make you an offer. In general, the offers that I heard seem to be pretty low unless you have new releases, that they know they can turn quickly. But, they need to make money too. It's a business! There is plenty of parking available and it's also right next-door to a Panera. So, grab yourself a book and enjoy it over a cup of coffee right next-door.

    Nicely organized book (and more) store that will buy used books. Lots of music, new & used books, movies, cards, and literary paraphernalia. I believe this a franchised book chain that is locally owned. Don't forget to check out the "Clearance" section of the store (most new & used books are $1-$3 here). Do expect to spend some time here browsing the shelves. Don't expect to make a fortune selling your books/games/music/movies/collectables/comics here-remember you can always refuse their offer.

    Less is More the 2018 tour continues with moving old fiction, non-fiction and textbooks on to new homes. There was an opportunity to donate them, but then I saw that Half-Price Books (HPB) buys used books. Half Price Books feel local but are a national chain based in Dallas, Texas. Their slogan is "Your Favorite Local Bookstore Everywhere" They do have a local "feel," and I was comfortable wandering around the store. When we stopped in, the book purchasing section was up toward the front, and the employees were approachable and helpful. We had one large box, and one reusable plastic tote full of books and the counter staff took a dolly and rolled out to get them out of the car. I love it when customer service is part of a business model. The selection was varied and had local flavor too. There was a decent cooking section; some locked up tarot cards, good collection of travel books, lots and lots of romance and mystery novels and so much more. It was fun to wander around while the buyer was evaluating books. The gaming section included some "vintage" selection that I recognized, but if you like those games, there are plenty there for you. This is a fun place to browse with a casual vibe. You'll find a large selection if you want to add more to your home. If you're looking to get rich from selling books, this is not the place, but if you're going to send them off to new homes and have some pocket money, it should work fine for you.
