This time was a different story. I walked don't the entire first floor and boy was I surprised! They have sage, crystals, jewelry, dream catchers, Greek supplies, tshirts, posters, records, etc. I really can go on and on. This store meets both your spiritual needs and eiu swag needs lol. Service was great. I had question about some crystals. The young man working let me know he didn't know much about crystals but his girlfriend did and she would at work the next day. I went the next day and she surely knew about crystals. She answered all of my questions and more. I really like this store! And everything is reasonably priced.

Ahh, who doesn't love the smell of an old bookstore?! This is a small locally owned bookstore…read more that's big on books! The variety and selection of books are wide and varied - classics, instructional, documentaries, arts, foreign (French were the ones I saw). The aisles are narrow and there's not a readily recognizable method of organization, with many books lying on the floor next to the filled bookcases. However it was fun just taking my time and browsing down each aisle. (One should never visit a bookstore with time constraints.) I found and purchased a great find - "The Blue Carbuncle" by A. Conan Doyle. It's a limited edition of about 1,500 copies, and it's the very first standalone book from the Baker Street Irregulars society (New York - 1948. It includes Christopher Morley's preface, the full story, and a note on the Irregulars themselves. It's in very good condition and has a really nice slipcase. I'm really looking forward to reading it! It was a great value which I bought for $20. !! I love going to old bookstores. It's like treasure hunting! This place has treasures waiting to be found.

You could lose yourself for hours in this place! Multiple floors and so many books. I personally loved the top floor front room to just chill in.

Headstone Friends gives off the vibe of a place that used to be really cool, having that music…read morebasement atmosphere (dark, somewhat cramped, aromatic), with clerks who can be nice and friendly and who clearly love what they do... but it also suffers greatly from the lack of competition around it and variety within it. The majority of what they carry, which is a bit hard to navigate due to the vertical storage spaces with horizontal disc orientation, is nothing particularly special. There is not enough obscurity in the catalog to really foster discovery, as most of what I could find were the same over-pressed, over-priced albums that can be found everywhere else. I will admit to the biased perspective that living in a pop culture mecca such as California has ingrained in me, and maybe HF's fault is mostly due to that bias, but - in a time of digital stores and downloads, where the rest of the world can have access to everything and anything from the convenience of their home and can share a similar perspective to mine due to this - this fault can be fatal. Furthermore, having the merchandise under lock is very off-putting when a large part of the appeal of a record store is the ability to "touch the music": the packaging, the angles, the reflection of the light off the glossy surface... the scratches, the plastic wrap, the track listing and bar codes. Maybe it wasn't always that way and maybe a few bad apples ruined it for the rest of us... but it has ruined it regardless. As the only standing music store in Terre Haute (that I know of, and without counting big chain electronic stores), I can accept it for what it is and appreciate the fact it has held out this long. Unfortunately, there are not very many other redeeming qualities of the store, and frankly, it seems more like an incense shop than anything at this point. I enjoyed the breath of a familiar air when I walked in (having been starved for the record store experience during a summer visiting family), but all too rapidly, that initial feeling became a longing for the version of this experience that I was used to... I wish this store the best and hope they can adapt in an increasingly hostile world for its likes. PURCHASED: Happy Head/Out of Hand by The Mighty Lemon Drops (Used, $7.99)

My husband and I had read an adulatory article about the store and the many thousands of books…read morethere, so we traveled up from St. Louis to take a look. The thousands of books were there, all right, but in a building that smells overwhelmingly of mold. I don't know whether it's from a roof leak or a flood, or whether they have just bought a lot of smelly books, but my husband and I both stank of mold even after we left, and I was coughing. I didn't find much of a selection of unusual or uncommon books to tempt me, and the layout of the place is very strange. I couldn't find mystery books for over ten minutes. They were hidden away in a corner, and given far less prominence than romance or inspirational books. Even if I found out that the mold problem had been solved, it's not likely we would return.

While they didn't have much, I did find their music section, and got a great book on the old ACE Records label. However, the best part of the experience was Lori, the owner (I believe). She was SO HELPFUL!!! I asked about her usual stock, and she was totally willing to have an in-depth conversation with me about various subjects. Also, when I went to check out, and told her that I was in town for a concert, she reached into a drawer, and pulled out an information sheet recommending restaurants for dinner, breakfast and coffee places. She even gave me some of her own, and some advice on where else to look for good used books!! Other than the concert itself, it was the highlight of my trip there. Thank you Lori!!!

The best part of used bookstores is the element of serendipity. I find books I have loved that I…read morenever knew existed, and would never have known to search for them. New bookstores, in my view, are very limited in scope -- the owner has a particular taste, majority of titles (not counting classics) have been published in the last 1-5 years, from major publishing houses, almost everything has been on the NYT besteller's list. Very little element of surprise, few hidden gems. Used bookstores have so much more serendipity, so many hidden gems, so much more variety. And Priceless Books has this element of used bookstores, but twice as much as any other used bookstore I've been to. And I've been to a lot! On every road trip, if I'm just passing through, I check out their used bookstores. This one's special. Yes, it's messy and there's piles of books on the floor blocking the path (definitely not a wheelchair friendly store). Yes, you have to crane your neck to view titles up on the shelf. Yes, the store clerk is not gregarious (but does have a twinkle in his eye). But it's worth it! I have found so many books that my here that my life feels more complete having read them, and I never would have known of them if not for this store. This can be said of many a used book store, but Priceless Books just has more of it, and it's something special.
