They were so helpful! I brought them a rough list and they helped me find what I was after. They were willing to even call around and see if another store had it. Then have them send it over or have them hold it for me. Customer service was amazing, going above and beyond!

As much as the business has signs about wearing a mask and they have sanitizer at the entrance, it means nothing if the employees do not play by the same rules. Unfortunately the employee was casually walking around the store and even assisting customers with his mask around his neck. Disappointing but we cannot take the risk with that behavior and won’t be returning.

I took 4 boxes of books in. They took an estimated 20 books for almost $5.00 credit. I carried out 4 boxes of books! Very disappointed. The other books were too old. Printed in 2017 and up. Again very disappointed. Will not go back. I picked out 6 books which cost me $58.00. That was after using my $5.00 credit.

Nice vibe but a very small selection of modern poetry, despite this they still had a lot of classic poets and traditional plays. The book I wanted wasnt there but the staff was extremely helpful and called their other stores to see if they carried a copy. It was good to see that the CDC guidelines were followed and enforced.

I love starwars series books and this place had 8 that I did not have for a GREAT price and looked to see what others they had elsewhere. This is by far my favorite location for all books and hard to find movies. Keep up the great work!!!

Our family loves bookaholic. It is a great place to take your used books and to purchase used books. My kids love comic books so we are always popping in to see what they have. We can get them for a much better price than buying a new and we use store credit from books that we have brought in.

Helpful, friendly staff! I was able to find two books by a local author that I’d had a hard time finding even online, plus a couple other older novels by a popular author. Really, I need to schedule time just to come in and browse. Great place to find good used books!

Was just in the store to sell my duplicates and the girl said could do cash or credit. She explained the difference in value, but was it. When she said they were done, she said that they can’t do cash at all which would have been nice to know before wasting my time. If this was brought up before hand I would be more understanding.

Review №66

Very poor customer service. Was basically ignored by the staff. I asked about a book when I first went in, they (2 of them were working) didnt know if they had it. So i stood there several seconds waiting for one of them to offer to help me look for it, when neither of them moved from their spots, I found the proper section and spent some time looking for myself. No one came to help me or offer to order it for me. Neither of them even acknowledged my being there, looking for the book, nor as I slowly walked out the door! Not even a grunt in my direction. I wont be going back, and dont recommend wasting your time there.

Great store with great prices. I go there for manga and the books look almost new and are half of the price of a new book. I don`t notice the employees saying hi to anyone as they enter or asking anyone if they need help so that`s something that could be improved. Other than that I`ll keep going there for books.

Good if you are looking for a special book not found at the store, otherwise used book prices are only a few dollars less than buying brand new.

Review №82

I brought in a giant bag of books and the worker told me that it would take 5-10 minutes to sort through them. She asked if I wanted store credit or cash and I told her cash and she said okay. So I waited maybe 15 minutes and my bag of books was just sitting on the counter, and the worker that said she would look through them orginally was gone. I asked if another worker they were looking through the books or not and after 15 minutes of waiting was told they werent able to offer any cash today. They didnt even look through them and did not notify me that they couldnt take them. Very rude and unprofessional. Learn some communication skills. I do not recommend.
