Which is exactly what I liked about this store. Plenty of NES titles at reasonable prices. And while I usually buy most of these online, I found the prices to be comparable. At least for the one's I was eyeing. Adventures Of Bayou Billy, Dr Mario, and Skate Or Die. Yet ultimately went with the first one mentioned. The cartridge worked great on the first try. No glitchy, pixelated, or blank screen whatsoever. I always give them a cleaning with 91% Isopropyl Alcohol before inserting for the first time. And found this one to be pretty clean. The QTips usually look like I've dipped them in ink afterwards. Not here though. Wonder if they clean them beforehand? Yes, I could have possibly saved a few bucks buying online, but for various reasons I wanted to support this business. Which has been around for quite some time. Also I found the vibe here to be way more chill, compared to the recent GameStops I've been to. The music playing here was really cool as well.

Me and my girlfriend decided to rent movies here on Tuesday we got Savages, Looper, and Pitch Perfect. We went to the store after and long story short we lost the movies. The next day we went back to Tequila Video and told the guy we lost the movies and asked what can be done. He charged us $20 for the 3 movies. We considered it a good deal since buying the original DVD's would add up to around $40. The guy didn't get angry or bothered for our mistake, which is always a plus.

Because the…read moreworkers and manager will let people who cut go in, until people speak up and then allow the cutter to go in, tell them something and have them "leave". Well when we all got in and got the last two packs, 10 minutes later driving by the cutter came back. And in the video you see him opening TWO packs that store saved for him. We were the last two people to get our packs , but when we counted how many people were in line there was enough for two more packs. Lo and behold the manager and worker kept it for this cutter to come back once everyone leaves. HOW SHAMEFUL, especially when it would have gone to kids!!!! I decided to open a pack and give some to the kids because what disgusting behavior is this!!! There were over 4-5 people complaining to the manager and door person yet they kept saying he has been here, when he was not ! He even told someone that he isn't in line and slowly he migrated his way into the line. There were people who said he does this all the time each time and the store just allows it. And now there's proof that they even saved packets. Franchise or not, I hope corporate does something about this. Horrible!

Walking into The Last Bookstore feels less like entering a shop and more like stepping into a…read moredifferent world. Housed inside a former bank, the space already carries this grand, historic energy that sets the tone before you even start browsing. What makes this place unforgettable is how it's designed to be explored, not rushed. There are cozy spots scattered throughout where you can sit and get lost in a book, but the real magic is upstairs. It opens into a maze of rooms, each with its own personality, filled with carefully arranged books that feel more like art than inventory. At times, it genuinely feels like you've wandered into a dream. One of the highlights is the famous tunnel of books, which adds to that surreal, almost cinematic experience. Everywhere you turn, books are used as decor in the most creative ways, and it creates this quiet moment where everything else fades out. Upstairs also holds one of my favorite parts, a row of art studios featuring work from local artists. Every piece feels intentional, unique, and thoughtfully placed. Right nearby, there's a small coffee shop surrounded by beautiful artwork, making it an easy place to pause and take it all in. This isn't a quick stop kind of place. Plan to spend a few hours here, wandering, discovering, and just enjoying the atmosphere. It's one of the most iconic bookstores I've ever been to, and it absolutely lives up to the reputation.

If you like books this is the place for you. It is awesome to walk through and look at all the…read morebooks. There were so many amazing old books to look at. The book tunnel was an impressive construction

I loved seeing their pocket-sized collection from their genre-specific books to celebrity finds. I spotted a Chappel Roan book among other favorites. Additionally, they had a selection of Heated Rivalry novels and other fan-favorites. I definitely see myself coming here more often, too bad my booklist is currently full. My Mom and I got a few items (a small version of Macbeth, socks, mug, etc.). Staff were pretty polite but a little awkward, I think they're on high-alert for shoplifters. The store was neat and tidy. Lighting was dim and the store wasn't packed. As this is a gift shop in LA, library-specific merch is slightly pricy. However, the quality of the goods are great. If you're entering through the backside of the library go straight down the entrance hallway a bit and turn to your right. The Library Store is hard to miss!
