I also liked the little table-sitting area at the front of the shop.

It's cool that they're run by volunteers and that supposedly all proceeds go to the Davis Library,…read morebut what threw me off was how they have a whole section dedicated to Zionism. It was the last thing I expected to see in cute ole Downtown Davis. I'd say come to Sac if you're looking for bookstores that won't make you feel weird entering. Edit: To clarify, I found it pretty disappointing that there was an entire shelf dedicated to European history, and another shelf generalized as "world history". Within the "world history" shelf, I saw a row of books specifically about Israel and Zionism, albeit not labeled as such. The only book with Palestine in the title was on display, but on the back cover it specified that it recounts the "experiences of Zionist women settling in Palestine", and not indigenous Palestinians. I scanned the shelf and didn't see a single book about Palestine, despite a fair number on Israel. Given how charged this topic is with the ongoing genocide in Gaza, I felt uncomfortable as it seemed that the bookstore had taken an intentional stance by not providing, at the very least, accounts of both sides of the matter.

I stumbled upon this small book store while visiting my brother's family, who lives nearby. The…read morestore is just inside the library, to the right after walking through the automatic doors. Once you step inside, you can see the price list on the wall across from the entrance. The store is not manned; you put any money you spend in the book slot underneath the price list. To the left of the price list is the discount area; on the far wall are media (mostly DVDs with some audio CDs), a shelf with newer releases (prices as marked) and fiction books. The opposite wall has non-fiction books, and the short far wall has children's/young adult books as well as fantasy/sci-fi. Most of the paperback novels are donations, while the hardcover books are mostly library discards. Though the room is small, there were a good variety of books, especially in the non-fiction section. I found 3 great recent baseball books and 4 fantasy paperback novels, all for only $5.00. I slid the cash into the slot and walked out very happy. I'll be sure to hit this room up the next time I visit my brother and his family!

Then this is your place and they come with a hefty price tag. As I am deeply in the rock community, I was blown away with 10,000% mark up these guys do. Well, its more of a 700 - 1,100% mark up to be real. I was holding very small smokey towers that were marked at $450+ that I can buy direct from Brazil for $19 (plus shipping) and I'm not even exaggerating. A Lemurian point for $650 that I can buy for $50 in Brazil direct. I knew better and walked out empty handed. But, I can see how someone who doesn't know better might think they are getting a good deal. They run specials like, 50% off cut base amethyst. Or, 70% off pieces $2,000 or more. But, when you do the math, even with the discounts, you are still "over paying" per kilo. I only buy if the math makes sense. And the math doesn't make sense here. Beautiful store though. And super friendly staff that can chat up about rocks.

I started collecting baseball cards again in 2019 after a 29 year hiatus. This is the first card…read moreshop I visited after deciding to jump back in. Met Kevin, the Owner, who's been in business since the heyday of collecting in the 80's. He was extremely helpful, friendly, and didn't mind taking time to answer questions, which I had plenty of since the collecting industry had changed so much since I stopped. Over the next 3 years I bought numerous hobby products from Kevin. When COVID hit in 2020, the industry went crazy and caused prices to skyrocket. Kevin remained true and offered prices well below what he could of asked for at the time. I asked him about it and he told me he'd seen numerous highs and lows in the industry, and he wanted to take care of his loyal customers who would always come back. I have a great deal of respect for Kevin, and while I have stopped collecting new cards (I just purchase vintage), I still stop by from time-to-time to say hello. He no longer sells sports cards because the distributors got too greedy, and he didn't want to pass those excessive costs to his customers. He still sells comics though, and he is extremely knowledgeable and helpful with anyone who stops by. It's a small shop and if he doesn't have something you're looking for, he has years of connections and will either find a way to get it or point you in the right direction. If you're in the area, stop on by and take a look. You'll feel welcomed and want to come back. Not enough places like this anymore.

Good place to get something in an emergency (like if you forgot a calculator and have an exam), but you will likely be charged well over market price. The store has a wide variety and nice selection of goods. You can find plenty of products from most categories. Academic supplies, clothing, food products, books, toys. In terms of service, I really wouldn't expect anything one way or another. Not because they are bad or anything; the employees here are predominantly students of the school itself. This means employment is a bit of a revolving door, so they may not be able to help if you need something specific. Overall, I quite like this place. It isn't cheap, but it is certainly useful and convenient.
