Or maybe you just want to giggle at the funny posters and dusty wacky toys hidden in the store. Surprisingly, there is a bit of organization amidst the chaos and books are categorized in sections and separated from other stuff. I've found some pretty great stuff in the poetry / essays area. Check out the art and photography section - you might find a great tabletop book. If you're waiting for a table at any of the restaurants around the corner it's worth stopping into and the building is incredibly beautiful and old if you can get past the dust and paper. Good luck finding something!

Highly recommend them if you're selling books in the GTA.

I have been shopping at full price retail places for 14 years and once in a while stumbled on to other places. This place had the exact Guitar I was looking for that was a Vintage Fender. There are so few like it out there, I snatched it up. Prices were far below what I find at traditional orange and white stores. It looked like there was mostly new and some lightly used instruments. The amplifiers on display were all immaculately cleaned. The guy behind the counter was friendly and didn't jump on me or convince me to buy anything. -Very Pleased

The first level houses your new books, trades, collectibles, and CCGs. The second level has your back issues, older toys & collectibles, and an area for people to congregate to play games. While they have some, their anime/manga selection isn't big. But as I said, the staff is friendly so they'll help you find anything you want. They're on the ball in customer service.
