Great selection of Vintage Science fiction paperbacks. Prices are fair. Definitely beats ordering…read moresingle issues online . My issue is the large modern price stickers. Yes, easily removable on a gloss surface, generally. HOWEVER, direct-to-paper pricing stickers are a complete dealbreaker for 1960s-1980s matte paperbacks. Vintage paperbacks from publishers like Ace, DAW, and Ballantine used uncoated covers. Trying to peel them off with alcohol or ever a dryer ruin the book's value and is heartbreaking for lovers of old paperbacks. It's unfortunate.

All of whom are very very friendly! Royal Oaks is a never ending pit of used books! It was a bit overwhelming but I loved getting lost in the stacks and discovering the new ways the employees organized the shelves! They have a newish titles section in the front, as well as fun collectable items throughout the store. One thing to note, however, is they have a LOT of religious and confederacy books. So I, a queer person of color, was a bit nervous roaming the store. The staff briefly interacted with my partner and I and were very nice, though.

After finishing my meal at a restaurant we decided to see what stores were around Apple Blossom Mall area and came upon this store. The parking lot is big so no issue there and the inside was very clean with many rows of books. They also sell games and toys along side the books. Also , there is a coffee shop inside if you like. I wasn't able to find a book that caught by interest but I would recommend anyone to come in and take a look around.

Super childrens section (range of picture and learning books, series books like Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys (sometimes first editions). The owners are fun to talk to (they're a little eccentric, like most of the people in Berryville), and the store is properly supervised by two elderly (but friendly) cats who will gladly accept petting from visitors, and observe the town from comfy spots in the front window. The only drawback: the weird hours the place is open. Pretty much whenever the owners feel like working and aren't off at book sales. But, hey, if they're not open when you go, there's always the Berryville Grille next door.

It's not huge but it has a lot of variety and the prices are fairly reasonable for what is offered. What's really cool about the place is that they not only have the regular used books selection, they also have a good handful of vintage, pulp fiction type paperbacks from the '50s and earlier. They also have a good selection of First Editions that they keep under lock and key and go for some serious bucks. Of course, being in a WV tourist destination, they also have a little area for locally made soaps and lotions and the like. Not a lot. Just enough to make a couple more bucks. If you like browsing through a used book store, this is a great place to spend some time.

She didn't offer a bag when it was RAINING HARD and I had purchased more than 3 books . She handed me one after I asked, and then didn't even bag them herself. (You're getting paid to be a cashier, act like one.) Mind you, this is the second time I've experienced a rude cashier with poor, disgruntled attitude.

I like that this B&N has CHAIRS!!! I think the chairs are such an underrated feature of B&Ns, and I appreciate that this one has little reading 'nooks' throughout the store, so you can kind of hang out and enjoy the bookstore ambiance while you read and maybe sip your little drinky drink! This is one of the few Barnes locations in the surrounding areas that actually has chairs and/or book nooks. The employees are very nice and helpful and the store is always in good order and clean. I've had no issues in this store. The only thing that I might consider a potential downside is that this location is quite busy typically, so if you're looking for a quiet, empty Barnes, this isn't the one!
