    Can I just tell you how SUPER PSYCHED I am that a) this…read morebookstore is actually still open (when you drive by, it often looks like it's closed) b) it's just down the street from my house c) they have an absolute TON of books Upon first glance, Redbrick (one word) looks like a relic of times past. The red brick industrial building has it's own parking lot, which is a bit of a kamikaze move to get into. Once inside, you're surrounded on all fronts by books upon books upon books. A treasure trove of literature! The books are grouped into general sections: children's, self-help, religion, cookbooks, fiction, classics, romance, etc. The distinctions between these groups aren't as clear as they could be, so this bookstore is more for the patient, the ones who get great joy out of finding a really cool classic or a collection of stories from their childhood. It will take awhile to peruse the whole store, but I guarantee you'll find some winners in there. Most of the books (paperback, hardback) and magazines are from decades past. I saw few "newer" books on the shelves interspersed. Some of the books, particularly the children's books and those by the windows, have had their covers sun-bleached. I, for one, love the classics and enjoy collecting antique books and quite enjoyed myself here. Many of their older books (away from the windows) have aged very well. I purchased two of Hemingway's novels, another smaller antique book, and a fictional hardback from the 70s, with a very "period" cover. We spent the better part of an hour in there, enjoying the opportunity to browse! Check out is toward the front, where a husband and wife team sit and chat, read, or browse the web. Being in business for 34 years (!), you know they really have a true love for literature and I really hope they have no intention of closing down. Their prices are pretty affordable: the four books (2 classics, 1 antique, and 1 retro) came to about $14. And, as a note, they do accept debit cards for purchases over $10. A sign spattered about the store claims that most books are 50% off, unless written otherwise inside the cover. If you're a bibliophile, an avid reader, a book collector, an imaginative mind, you'll absolutely love stepping back in time at Redbrick. I highly recommend this as a "cool" place to spend a little time and a little cash.

    1st stop this morning on my "Used bookstore trail in MASS" journey. The SF/Fantasy section was…read morefairly diminutive, only took me a short time to scan everything and realize there was nothing I was interested in purchasing. Didn't see anything else interesting, but as another Yelper stated, the Romance section was pretty extensive. On a side note, they had the music cranked up REALLY loud. Decent tunes, but I still found it a bit annoying. Jumped back in the vehicle and Hit the road again !

    I got a headset for $106 with warranty!! And I claimed that warranty and they gave me a broken…read moreheadset! AND THE WRONG GEN! THAT COSTED $69 The next day I ran back and told them about it and they said that since I used my warranty they said they can't do anything but refund me for the wrong/broken headset. So I would lose money on it still! Then they told me they can't refund it or I can BUY a new one but the broke/wrong headset would go to the total when THEY sold me the wrong headset. Never again going to GameStop. Go to target they are so much better

    I've been visiting this GameStop location over the last 2 weeks and have been more impressed than I…read morewas at the Riverdale Rd. location (which is horrible). The best part of the experiences here has been the customer service. Employees from management on down have been courteous, friendly, and generally low-pressure when it comes to upsell stuff like pre-orders and Game Informer subs. The staff consistently check my used game purchases before ringing them in to make sure that they're in good shape and have even offered to show me the limited PlayStation 2 game inventory even though it's not on display! The downside to this location is its limited size. It's a pretty small store, so it can feel cramped at times. In addition, some sections can get a bit disorganized (likely due to mall foot traffic)... so not everything has been in alphabetical order and easy to eyeball. Also, if it gets busy (weekends or the holiday season), it can get hectic with longer-than-average wait times. All in all, I recommend this location. There's a decent inventory of games (especially PS3) and the interactions with staff are generally very good.
