Reviews of Half Price Books
This bookstore is always a great place to go for books, CDs, DVDs, and records! It's quiet and cozy unlike Barnes & Noble which has more of a business feel to me. The staff are friendly and what makes me come back so often are the incredibly low prices! In the back of the store to the right they have a clearance isle where I've gotten some great books and other things from! All in all, it is definitely my favorite bookstore.
Great selection of hard to find books, out of print books, reasonably priced used books, the clearance section is amazing, and the sales staff are always courteous and pleasant. (The only thing I wish is that the other patrons would respect personal space.) I highly recommend this bookstore.
National chain with both new & used books. I never leave here without an armload of books. Well-organized shelves with just about any genre printed. Great prices. Don't let the chain aspect keep you away. This isn't Barnes & Noble or something like that. It's pretty legit. And don't skip the clearance section. Walked away today with 15 new books for under 100 bucks - Christopher Hitchens, Richard Dawkins, marathon training & nutrition, Nietzsche, Sam Harris, Lincoln biography, & more.
Not as big a selection as Bookman's but square footage wise it's smaller so that's too be expected. There were still plenty of books, along with movies, board games, and puzzles -- maybe some other categories too that I just didn't note. I found a couple of obscure games that looked so fun and they were in pristine condition. Will definitely visit again!
Half price books has a lot of manga it's a hit or miss for me. Sometimes you can find old volumes or brand new volumes. In all great place.
Great little bookstore! I have been going for years and always find a great read. They also sell LPs, calendars, etc. You can also trade your books in for cash.
Clean place. Lots of books and great deals. The sections were easy to find and there was so many people buying items. It was a mixture of all kids of ages. Definitely an interesting place to go and get something. The staff was friendly.
One of the best places to get comics at a rock bottom price. Service is great and clean store. Worth drive. Lots of parking and well lit. All safety covid protocols are in place. Well organized.
Team is always business and ready to help. Lots of comics and they are always filling their bins. Well price and are in great condition. Lots of trade paperbacks as well.
Easy access and good solid hours.
Recommended spot to go comic diving.
Good bookstore. Always busy and always has something for our varied interests and school teaching needs.
I love this store. They do a great job of organizing their vinyl section and had a wide variety of genres.
I love going to a bookstore and perusing their shelves. It’s a family affair for us. There seem to be less and less actual book stores around these days. The selection is great at this HPB location. They do not always file books as my brain thinks, but that’s where their great customer service comes into play. Every time, they happily search for it in their system. If they have it, they point me in the right direction. They also have access to inventory for other stores. If it’s not in stock there, they will offer to order and ship it if it is somewhere else. Selling your books back is not a huge money maker by any means, but every little bit helps. And, it gets the clutter out of your home. Also, the low prices on used books, records, board games are amazing. Around the holidays, they put out next year’s calendars. By far, these are some of the funniest ones I’ve seen around. You can find Great Christmas gifts and stocking stuffers here! Check it out next time you are heading to Target or Costco. You won’t be disappointed.
Half Price Books has a great selection of books and puzzles. One of the employees was very friendly and helpful. This will be my new go to. They have great prices!
Just found out they have a clearance section in back!
They seem to have a good selection for a smaller store. I love to come here once in awhile, especially during the holidays they have plenty of new popular books as well.
They have excellent customer service! My husband bought a game a month ago that was missing a disc..we went back a month later and they remembered his name and situation and gave us the disc....Exceptional service!!
I was hoping to get a good deal on books and wasn't sure what to expect. Instead of good deals, I found GREAT deals! I went into Half Price Books and planned to just take a quick look. 3 hours later I was still lost in the books and had to force myself out. Their selection and prices are amazing! My kids were soo excited and eager to dive into their new books! :) If you're looking for great books and great prices, I highly recommend Half Price Books!
Everything was really easy to peruse. Felt like a mini library. 🤗 Found 7 different books I'd wanted, and everyone was super chill and helpful. :) Will definitely go back. 😊 …
Hubby took me to here yesterday and had probably the best used book store experience ever. They had everything that you love about a used book store while being professional, orderly and cleanl. They seem to have pretty high standards for the conditions of the books they except yet maintain a diverse variety of books.
Every employee joyfully and quickly worked together as a team to help me find the books I was looking for. It was obvious that they loved what they do by their attitudes and detailed knowledge of their books. One guy said that it was his dream job and you could tell, he knew exactly where everything was and had an extensive knowledge on all the books that I was looking for along with recommendations for similar books. Each of the employees have a shelve with their recommended books for reading which I thought was really cool. They have a nice little kids section where we felt comfortable just sitting on the floor looking through books.
My family and I had such an enjoyable time there.
Was very happy to see a half price. Don't be fooled by the front. It's a deep bookstore. Decent video game selection. Not a bad collection of manga. Clean bathrooms. Good assortment of current books in the store. Love the section of recommendations when you come in the door. Wish there was more of these around.
I love it here! Everyone is always so friendly and helpful. It’s organized and clean. There’s a great selection so you definitely won’t leave empty handed ;)
Bigger store than it looks like. Staff were very helpful with questions and were happy to assist with people bringing things in to sell. Have sold several boxes worth of stuff and for a cash payout they do pretty well. Was a good experience all around.
You can't beat the prices, even for new books that have just been released. Call ahead if you're looking for a particular book and they'll let you know if it's in stock.
It's a treat to stop in here and see what's new on the shelves. I was impressed with the selection and would recommend visiting.
Great store. My wife is constantly picking up new books for herself and the children and their prices are a bargain.
I had a great experience here selling books for my Mother. I didn’t have to wait and received about $50. Mom wanted to donate to library and I thought I’d give them a try first. Glad I did- going back this week for round 2. Thank you Half Priced Books.
We love this store. Great finds here every time we come.
Got a nice pile of baby books, some long-forgotten albums on CD, and a few of the Harry Potter series we were looking for.
We'll be back, this place is great and has a wonderful selection.
This was an excellent gem to find! I found so many books on the series' I was looking for and spent SO much more than I should have. I love this place, I'll get in more trouble here soon!!
My wife's favorite bookstore, they buy and pay reasonably for books and have an amazing selection. We go every black Friday trying to win the $100 gift card.
This is a Great Place for Books, Used Games, etc., and their customer service is to be commended, one highlight for me was their no hassles exchange, on a game that was mistakenly packaged... They made me, a loyal customer with that one service experience.
So fun! I ran into this place unexpectedly and I’m so happy I did. I got a couple of books for about $6 each. I loved it!
My favorite used book store in the area that carries everything. The staff is super nice and friendly and helpful. Been going here since they first opened.
Really easy to see from the road,
An abundance of parking. They have a huge selection of books. It would take multiple visits to experience a fraction of their supply. I even noticed records and CDs out the corner of my eye..
Love, love, love this store!! Carries used and new books at great prices. CD's, LP's, movies, too. They also have a great selection of stationary and cards. I could spend hours here!! The staff is always very helpful and knowledgeable.
I travel a lot and love going to used bookstores. It's like finding a treasure. A chain bookstore has zero flair and all the selection. Some used bookstore have all flair and little selection. Half price books has both. It was really hard to walk out with only one book. I highly recommend it and I will go back again when I finish my new book.
Very friendly people who are knowledgeable too. Nice selection of books to pick through but it's organized and fairly easy to find what you are looking for if you're searching for a specific author/genre/subject.
Great Store and a large selection of books and music. Movies where small but I am not sure what the DVD/Blu Ray is in Phoenix but still a great store. Love visiting Half Price Books at different locations and states.
While I had unpleasant experiences with staff the depth of sections still drew me in. Prices they pay for used books had me donating rather than accepting virtually nothing.
Donated to libraries or Goodwill stores. Book condition at all location, now down to two, is exceptional. At another book store condition is often no comparison to Half Price Books.
The sections, topics was much better. One example:
books on Asia used to be by country.
I loveee this bookstore, they have a rack or a stand by in the front with new books 5-10$ cheaper than Barnes and nobles. I couldn’t resist so I spent up to 60$ there last time I went. Staff super friendly and funny. Also they got very good used books in good condition, A HUGEE YA section, and horror sec. Many Stephen king books too 😂. Just wish they had a bigger religion section for Islam and Spiritual belief, I’d be happy to donate books to make the Religion for Sikhs and Muslims bigger
Great store! It was much larger than I expected from the outside. There is a great selection of many genres, everything is organized very well and sections were clearly marked. Really good pricing too!
Been here for a long time. Friendly staff and great finds.
Not at all close to where I live but this is a nice, though smaller store. I didn't find what I was looking for but I did find some other books that did buy. Worth a look if you are a book lover like me
Won't come back. Brought in 40 great CDs in perfect condition and dozens of pristine Lazer discs. They offered me 14 bucks for approximately of the discs and 10 lase discs. Less than a buck a piece. Jeeze.
Great store that I stop in to check for old comics from time to time. Staff seems knowledgeable and quite friendly.
Small in size but expansive in nature book store that has all of the essentials. Not your typical second hand store, the books are all relevant and of good quality.
Great customer service...
I found this place online when I was looking to unload some books. They advertised that they buy books and I thought this was better than donating them. They had carts to bring in my used books and asked if I needed help. They explained how the program worked and advised they would page me when my offer was ready. They also offered to donate the ones neither of us wanted. I was happy I made some money back. Im even more happy that i now have a clean closet!
Great experience here! One of the associates here was really engaging, nice and helpful. There is such a wide range collection of books even new books as well, reasonable priced! There's also other things as well such a gaming systems, video games, shirts, and other cool items. Would definitely recommend!
**Update: After coming here a second time on a Saturday, it was extremely busy and they seemed to have enough associates at the time, but they acted as though they were understaffed. Since they had many customers, the manager there was really rude initially. She had a bad attitude and wasn't friendly. I had to ask her to be less bitter. My experience would have been a better if they'd improve their customer service skills, especially the manager there!
Staff always very friendly and helpful. I usually find at least one book I want. I have a list of fiction books I want to read and I often have a hard time finding any. (I have already read a lot of the ones they do have). But it is a used book store so I understand that inventory is hit and miss. They also have a fairly large inventory of vinyl records. It is definitely worth checking out if you like to read and want to save money.
By far the best store to go there. They have everything from video games, to cooking, to plushies, to puzzles and board games, to so much more. They give out so many discounts and they have so may sales it amazing to go there. Their service is fantastic with super chill and personable employees on top of their fantastic selection of everything. Their bathrooms are fantastic and clean and are not over done but bland and very clean like a public bathroom should be. I extremely encourage anyone to come here if you love bookstores or anything nerdy/ geeky like me.
The employees were kind, very helpful, and funny. The store is set up in a simple and efficient manner which made it easy to find what I needed. Their prices for textbooks were low in comparison to everything I saw online. I will definitely come back when I have more literary needs.
This was my first visit to this book store. I definitely need to return and allow more time to wander the store to see what they have! Nice employees!
The store has somewhat decent prices and pretty good selection. The amount they give you for your trades is rediculous though. I had a whole box of books including a Harry Potter book #4 and they gave me $8 for the whole box. I later went to look at how much they sell the HP books for and it was $7.xx. I know they can't give me what they sell out for but when you add in the other 20+ books I brought in, I would have been better just donating them to a charity.
Everyone was so kind and helpful, love this place! They go over and above customer service!
Great books, awesome staff, great prices and they love pets! I no longer shop anywhere else for my books I am a Half Price Books gal through and through.
Their Paradise Valley store is very nice and cozy. They have chairs in every (almost every) isles for you to sit. It is a book store where you don't feel rushed to grab something and leave. They have doggy treats for the puppies that come in they are great.
Great service. They always have the books in my son's highschool reading list. Great prices too
I love Half Price Books, they have a very unique and interesting selection. You can always find cool stuff there; it's easy to load up on lots of different books and notebooks and journals and bookmarks... My boys enjoy sifting through all of the records and memorabilia.
Very clean and well organized. Helpful staff. Much nicer than the locations in Wisconsin
Went to buy A Gentleman in Moscow and bought a second book by the same author. On the way out stopped to look at puzzles - bought three. So much fun to explore this store!
Well organized, spacious bookstore. Really like how they wrap sets of books up for one price as a series. Had an electronic inventory, so they can quickly tell you whether or not they have the book you are searching for. Also has a great kids section. Has a few boardgames for sale.
This place is great, even if you're not a book lover! If you love to read, they have great prices and tons of options. But even if you don't read a lot, they also have video games, puzzles, other awesome little knick-knacks, etc! Very similar to a Zia records type of vibe, just a little smaller. 📚💖 …
Has a mixture of everything for a good price! Video games,movies, and obviously books. I got a ten dollar gift card and I was able to buy the entire hunger games series. Great place!
I love Half Price Books. They always have a good selection of books at great prices, along with a nice selection of other fun items. Bookmark's, book lights, note books, journals, movies and other interesting items. It is light and bright and well laid out to navigate through.
This Half Price books is very well organized call mom has polite employees, and has a fantastic selection of various subjects. I also have a huge collection of records, magazines, CDs, DVDs, and audio books. My only complaint is there are several books I have found on Amazon for a cheaper price San some of the books in the store.
Great customer service at this location!
They will hold books for three days (up to five). Good selection of titles, they also have assorted toys, games, notebooks, records and DVDs. They will pay cash for titles they can sell. They also have a summer reading program and an educator discount card.
Lots of very well priced books. The variety of sections is great, it's hard to find a horror section at all much less one worth browsing. Not everything is used, by the way.
The employees are nice and seem to enjoy their jobs. I'm a fan.
We love Half Price Books, and this is our favorite location. It is well laid out and has helpful and friendly staff as well as a wide variety of books, games, puzzles and gifts, all at extremely reasonable prices. We'd be over there every week buying books if we had more of those dollar dollar bills, y'all.
I like this place because of the myriad of books and other items that sometimes would be hard to find. Fantastic selection of books old and new (at times). They're always willing to help you find whatever you need and will search their database for you as well if you can't find what you're looking for.
Great place to get books, movies or music! I bring my kids here to help build their library. The staff are always friendly, welcoming and very helpful. The store is very tidy and organized. I'll always come back here.
Been going here for years since I was a kid. Always come away from the place with plenty of treasures. Recently came here for some materials for my students this upcoming school year, and found great reference that I wouldn't have been able to find at a Barnes and Noble (much less for the price). If it weren't for the distance, I'd probably come here weekly.
Love this book store! Always buy a whole bunch more books and I plan to but it's so cheap! They buy your books too but, they don't give you a whole bunch for them. I guess that's why they can sell them for cheap. I get lost in the clearance section in the back. My husband has to drag me out of there.
Great used book store in the Paradise Valley area. The staff were friendly and very helpful, the selection of used books was huge. It was also very clean compared to similar stores. There's a little seating scattered around the shop, not much but adequate.
The only negative is the lack of cats. Used book stores should always have resident cats.
They were very helpful I called for two books they had them ready for me when I got to the store I love shopping there
Nice place to buy books and board games and stuff. I got maybe 10% of what i paid for on a collectors set of books in great condition though, so maybe not the best place to sell used books in great condition :/ otherwise I suggest going here to buy books.
Not everything is kindle.. tangible books so you can smell the pages..second hand books can save you some money.. they have vinyl baby that's right warmth of a vinyl album .punk to classic on wax.. even some collectors punk
This is my son's one of the favorite places in the summer. Starting June they have this program for children where you can purchase a used book and if you return it within 7 days after you read it you can grab another book without charge. It is a great way to encourage younger generation to read. Even though the books are used are in very very good shape and just a fraction of the price.
This place is a great place to shop for all kinds of books and odds and ends. It is always stocked with hard to find items for gifts or everyday things. Great customer service it is one of my favorites.
This place is really cool! We live right near there for a few years and never went. Great deals on music (all types), books, movies, etc. Wide variety. Multiple staff was super helpful and really nice actually.
I was Def impressed and pleased with this place overall.
Very lovely bookstore! Got my hands on a genuine limited edition signed book for under 50 bucks!
Love this store. Have sold books to them and feel I receive a fair price. They have a great selection of books, CD’s, DVD’s and vinyl! Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Plus they have chairs to sit in while perusing the shelves!
Half priced in Phoenix is wonderful. They will always help you out. Chester is my favorite and they always help me when I forget my coupon :) they will even find you items at other locations and send them over to this one for ya! Or take your name down if you are interested in something and call you if it comes in! I have even put items on hold and came to pick them up later. They are a local fun store, great for gifts and everything! Ask them for a recommendation, you won't be disappointed.
This is one of the best used book shops around. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The selection is great and the ability to sell your old books is wonderful. I always recommend donating your old books to a library but if you need the cash this is the place to go.
We had a very good visit finding the. books we wanted and buying them. We will visit again when we will look for more and purchasing them. The employees are helpful when we asked questions.
Great store! Nice layout and well-marked categories.The only thing I could suggest is to more people on the floor helping customers, as opposed to taking in, pricing and placing books. But I would recommend it and we will continue shopping there.
What's not to love about this place? Great prices for second-hand books. Respectable trade/in-store credit. Friendly well-informed staff. Interesting selections. Never really know what you'll find!
Great selection, great prices, helpful staff. Not many bookstores like this left. Plan on spending some time here there are good values to be had. Check the sale rack in the back of the store....got a great deal on some old Tony hillerman hardbacks.
I had been looking for a particular book and they tracked one copy down for me. From another state. Had it shipped here, and it came within the time frame they suggested. Staff is very helpful, friendly, great customer service! I keep coming back to Half Price Books!
I always bring my old books and CDs here. Usually between selling that stuff and the discounts on prices I can walk out with some really good deals. Sometimes if they have an overstock of certain books you can find copies with really great discounts, so be sure to go look in the Sale sections.
Great resource for cheap books. They have a large well organized section for children's books/readers and fiction. Current best sellers are hit or miss, but if you callahead they can tell you if something is in stock. They also carry a decent selection of used Vinyl, CDs and DVDs. The front part of store is dedicated to bookish gifts: Calendars, Note cards, blank journals, etc..
We just stopped in to pick up a novel or two and left an hour later with a couple of novels, 3 art books, a cookbook or 2, some miscellaneous items. They were extremely kind and helpful, and ordered an obscure book on Nordic art (for half what I would have had to pay on Amazon). Wish we had one of these in Las Vegas.
Good selection,but they dont change inventory
Very often
Really like it. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Great selection and organization for a used book store. Excellent selection and good prices plus a lot more cool and funky stuff like gifts and vinyl, etc.
Probably one of the best book stores I've ever been to.
I always have a pleasant experience coming to HPB and every time I visit there's always something different "on the menu", as it were.
Even when a certain novel, comic, or CD isn't available one day it may be there the next. Even something completely different from what I'm looking for reveals itself and makes my visit worthwhile!
Lots of books and very friendly people. Can't think of another used book store of this size anywhere remotely close. Absolutely large enough to make it browsable for extended periods.
Bring in less than 50 books (per day) and get a cash offer quickly while you shop. Some books they don't want/need will be recycled if you don't want them back. Easy peasy!
I prefer to trade in at bookmans since they offer more in credit, but I love half price books for their prices! Large selection and a great place if you are looking for hard to find books. I go to half price with anything bookmans won't take since otherwise it would be going to Goodwill. Half price doesn't offer credit, but I do like their clearance section. I hit it every time I go! Workers are nice and have always been helpful to me.
Went in here looking for a book my son needed for school. The staff was amazing as usual and helped me locate what I was looking for right away. Best book store in AZ.
Friendly staff and amazing selection
Great place to browse for the things you just cant buy in stores anymore! Half price books has a little and a lot of everything. Video games old and new, DVDs and bluray, a whole kids section.. clearance shelves in the back of store! Worth a visit if you are in the area. They also buy merchandise but dont give store credit. Cash offers are for people just trying to get rid of old media, you arent going to get the most money possible so just dont expect a lot of money for what you bring them.
This is a great store, and a great location. Personal are very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. They have a good variety of books, movies and music, including vinyl. I've been going to this store for years and would highly recommend it.!!
Staff is always helpful and pleasant - exactly what I hope for when visiting a book store.
I walk in this place and lose an hour in wonderland. It has a neighborhood feel with all the convieince of a book superstore. Lots of good quality new and used books, movies, CD's, and gifts. I bought an entire CS Lewis collection for $17.
Cute store and great customer service 🐕🦺 …
Decent used bookstore. Nice to have option not to pay full price for books. They will buy your books also. Love the clearance section in the far back...fun to see what kind of discounts you can get there.
I always find what i am looking for, and more. They have a great selection of journals and calendars, too. The books are in excellent condition too, and they have new books as well. And the prices can't be beat. Saw some collectible books too this time.
They have everything! Including text books. The outside is deceptive, it appears small, but the inside is very deep - out goes on forever. They're a cross between a Barnes & Noble, a library and a gift shop - with great prices - it's a treasure!
Above average of what you would expect to find at a used book store, selection wise. I can find what I'm looking for 90% of the time no matter how old or new a book is. If not, there are always other books that catch my eye that I can easily find. There are also sections for used board games, video games, comics, DVDs, Audio book CD's, Music CDs, Records, etc... Employee's are very nice and I have yet to have a bad experience.
Great store great prices so very helpful books in top condition
Very neat store! You can find just about anything there. The staff was friendly too which is always nice. I went in with no intention of buying anything then I left with 8 books lol. Will definitely be back!
Well organized. The best collection of Jack Reacher books I have seen! Just an indication of how well the bookstore is organized.
The store is a treasure hunt waiting to happen. I may not be able to find the exact book I went there for, but I am distracted by other books that look good. Their online search capability my also turn up what you want, but requires a wait when you want to read that book then, not later.
If you are buying anything from books to movies to comics to records, stop here first or at least call. They have the nicest people i. The world working here, they all seem to like theor job and are ready and willing to help with anything. Love this place.
One of my favorite places to go, helpful employees, huge selection of new and used books, fair prices, and the clearance section in the back of the store is always packed. Love!
They have all types of books and found lots of books that brought memories. The staff was kind and acknowledged our presence. Great place for nice books at good prices
Great assortment of books, music, even audio books. I can always find something for a gift. The employees are like friends
I love this place. It's such a shame that the Phoenix location bordering Scottsdale closed. That was by far my favorite store. They had the best selection of used books at amazing prices😔 …
This place is one of the best bookstores in Arizona. They replaced the hole in my heart
that Boarders and Walden's Books & More left ages ago.
Great staff, great selection and fair prices both in store and when selling my own books to them.
I was excited since they had 2 books that I was wanting to read. I was in and out quickly. Several other books were there from some of my favorite authors.
This location is alright. It is definitely smaller than the other 2 locations. If looking for a bigger selection on whatever, I would recommend going to either the Mesa one or the Camelback store. However, not bad, I usually come across something interesting every now and then.
If you love to read books but you don’t want to overspend at Barnes and Noble then this is the perfect place for you. Besides, you’ll be helping the environment by reading old books. It’s all about content, not everything is about the surface.☺️
Good but limited selection. Buys books and other media, but not at a particularly competitive price. Staff are not uniformly "friendly," which is rather uncommon for presumed bibliophiles.
I really like this place. The sell and buy second hand books. I like the alternative vibe to the store. The staff is really friendly, patient, and willing to answer customer questions. Highly recommended place to shop.
Great place for used books, movies and cd's. Staff is friendly. Prices are reasonable.
Very nice store everything is categorized and set up on the shelves perfectly very nice
Highly recommended! Always a great experience here! Friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable staff! Very affordable especially if you have any trade ins. Great store hours not as limited as others.This particular location is the best however all locations are still really good.
Staff was great. Such a huge selection of items.
Cannot recommend this place more! 10/10
Love Half Price Books! Large selection, you will definitely find something great! Very friendly staff that are actually willing to help you find what you are looking for. Will definitely be back!
The staff was great in handling me and my requests for a quote for the books I was turning in. They seemed honest and the place was pretty busy which I would say is a good sign.
It's nice, well-organized, more people should check them out. They buy old books too (dont expect much for those tho...anywhere) as well as CDs DVDs and VHS, comics, etc.
Excellent chose of books and helpful staff.
I have always loved shopping here! I want to give a special shout out to Izzi! She is so fantastic! She always provides exceptional customer service and always looks for great opportunities to assist her clients and staff! Keep Rocking it Izzi!!
Love this bookstore! First time back in (due to rona) in awhile and felt sooo good to browse the aisles and pick up some new reading material!
Very helpful staff and great deals on many nonfiction books
A well organized used book store. I could get lost in there for hours. Very friendly and helpful staff.
Have been a customer for nearly ten years. Over all the staff is both friendly and knowledgeable.
Corporate oversite is sometimes just plain wrong. If you've not been in the trenches, don't make policy. Worst may be ( just a guess ) MBA's who haven't a clue.
Photographs are very deceptive.
The store is not nearly as large as it appears. It is really rather small.
Why do I remain a customer? Primary reason the Staff. There are many many book stores in the Phoenix area.
Communications between local management an staff is sometimes lacking.
vty
a regular
Great place to get cash for books and movies. Always check the clearance section. I often find really great stuff for super cheap. They have new releases as well as used books.
The first store I've been two was the one in Houston. I fell in love with it. Then at least I could bring home DVDs and occasionally CDs. It's like going to Amazon with actually going onto the online shopping website. Everything is cheap. My dad goes there to look for comic books. Kudos
Always an awesome selection of books and great prices! We dont even go to chain bookstores anymore, we just hit up Half Price Books!
I had a great experience. I brought in about a dozen books and just shopped for a few minutes before they made me an offer. I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was. I'll be back!
I always enjoy a visit to Half Price Books as they will inevitably have something I've been looking for. Shopping with them all over the U.S. since 1977.
I love this place, so many books at great prices!
Love this store. Super comfortable environment. Small little bookstore. Has new titles as well as old hard to find ones. Also accepts trade ins.
How can you not like Half Price Books?
I dropped in with my daughter and ended up buying a CD. It's mostly a used book store so selection is limited, but the service makes up the difference.1
Outstanding! When we lived ther, we use to visit the one in Columbus, OH - but the one in Phoenix blows it away; the selection and variety of goods was amazing. The staff was friendly and very helpful (although, they don't catalog thier inventory). I could easily spend all day there... and a paycheck. Thank goodness we're just visiting and had to travel light, or we would have spent all our time and money there.
Fantastic store!!!!!!!!! VERY impressed!!!! Selection incredible. Prices so reasonable. Staff very welcoming and helpful. What a nice visit. We will be back...and we live 200 miles away.
They had the book that I needed for an excellent price and awesome customer service. Will definitely go back again.
Great place to find books, vinyl records, CDs without paying inflated prices before you know if it's worth it. Very friendly knowledgeable staff.
Staff was very helpful and friendly. Huge selection of books at great prices. The world needs more book stores like this!
I love this bookstore, it has a great environment and everyone employed there is friendly and gives you space to shop and get lost in all the books and media they offer.
Reasonable priced books, but the place is not as bright and looking as other stores in town.
Love this place! Great selection of stuff. Books, movies, games, collectibles, and more. Staff is always friendly.
I am so glad my daughters can still experience the joy of wandering through a used book store!
Staff is very helpful and informative. The shelves are well labeled and in good order. I've never sold books to them though.
The staff here is really great. They're helpful and nice. Usually a good selection of books too. I like trading in various things here.
I come here every few weeks and shop for vinyl always find an amazing selection and always walk out with a stack of lp's and 45's. Staff is always friendly. The Camelback store is great too.
Brought some books to sell back and they didn't give me the best price but I great law book for super cheap. So if you're looking to but books I COMPLETELY recommend as for selling back, I'm not impressed
A very nice little shop. Their prices aren’t too bad. My only concern is the prices I’ve gotten for some of my stuff. It felt lowballed and I got more from other places in this industry.
Friendly, knowledable, helpful. Great selection of books in every genre. Nice selection of new gift items.
Always courtes and friendly. Always willing to look stuff up for you. Excellent selection and if they don't have it, they call to see if any of their other stores have it. Clean and organized.
I sold a lot of children's books. I think they were worth more then I got but they need to make money too. All in all they were pretty fair.
A wide range of different books and genres. There are also vinyls + CDs. Amazing! So many great books to choose from for a great price!
Books galore! Also sell your old books galore! If your trying to make sone extra scratch take a look at your bookshelf and think what books you won't miss? They pay a reasonable amount. GreAt gift ideas too!
I been at a half price books in 20 plus years, and I was pleasantly surprised! Amazing, personable help, and a huge selection that I was not prepared for!
One of the best places in the world to browse books (and more) and actually be able to afford some of what you find. You never know what surprises you will find here! Well worth a visit.
We were happy to find this place. We always went to the one in Madison, WI. I enjoy the books, my husband the records. We both leave happy.
It's a book store. What more do you need to know? Super friendly staff. Have purchased games, cookbooks, among dozens of novels. Love this place.
Great prices on books 💙 and great movies selection too. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. …
It was okay. I got only like 2 books I wanted there, and I did the bookworm bucks I read for about 1,000 minutes, it said come back when reach 300 so I did, but the was like you have to compact when you finish the month.
Friendly and helpful staff, a wide variety of cheap used books. Will definitely be returning here in the future. Keep up the good work!
So many interesting books and gifts! I had no idea. There are collectible books, calendars and journals, book and game related items. I will definitely be back when I have more time.
I took some books to sell. Didn't get much for them, but that's ok. It's a nice store. Isles are marked well.
Had almost all the jack reacher paperback books available. I was disappointed that the refund for new books was so little. Next time I won't sell them but take the tax deduction on them by donating them to charity.
Three cook books and a 64 year old Catholic Breviary in excellent condition for $15! Great book store, great "collectible" books section and the staff is super friendly.
Well organized and great collection of books. Bought Minecraft to paw patrol to parenting books.
Wish they had more locations in the Phoenix area, but I really liked the vibes of the place and the prices were pretty good
Amazing selections. Plus new stuff, BD cards, nite cards & journals. All VERY reasonably prices.
They have a huge selection of books and at some great prices.
Just went in to browse. They have a great selection of books, movies, CDs, albums, games, collectables, spent maybe an hour found 2 books .
Going back to sell some textbooks.
Great selection of new and used books. Lot s of toys and activities for kids.
My favorite place to get videos and books. I've been coming here for years and become somewhat of a regular. The prices are very reasonable and they'll give you a decent deal on items you bring to sell.
I love this place. They always have the books I am looking for, their prices are cheap and they are really close to my house
I love this store & especially this location! The books are always sold at an excellent price and this location is never too crowded.
Great place to get all kinds of books and find good deals. We go every time were in town.
Everything is very organized and people who work there are like so much in love with books and to help us . They explain everything from top to bottom
If u have any doubt . Really nice place
Price is so good !! And the quality is too good
Simply AMAZING. I've found books that I couldn't even buy on Amazon! Great prices. Many brand new. I love this place!
Super friendly staff, amazing selection, my go to place for new books!
Love this place. Good location, lots of parking, selection is amazing, used and new, plus music. Awesome kid selection and lots of toys and project stuff. Friendly staff.
This book store has some amazing books. Whole sets, and independent copies. Really old, priceless books. Fun place to spend the morning.
Busy place! Tons of books, decent pricing. A little crammed feeling but overall good experience. The staff was friendly.
Great organization and presentation, plenty of fantastic books and other media to purchase. I was quite pleased with my purchases.
Excellent finds at phenomenal prices! Thank you Half Price Books! You guys rock!
Very nice people and also suggested local authors which I thought was nice of them to do. They also knew mainstream titles and you could tell they actually read books instead of others that just say they do.
Such great help when calling and searching for a book, if they have it they hold it for 3days!! Very friendly when I got to the store to pick up as well.
Good prices on most books. And the majority of the used inventory was well cared for outside of some heavily worn paperbacks.
Small busy store. No one available to ask questions too without standing in lines. Couldn't find section for large print books anywhere. Maybe just too small to carry?
Too commercial and not enough used books. Nice staff. Online ordering online is good and competitive with Amazon.
Adore Half Priced Books.
It's like a treasure hunt when I go there.
Love it
Half price books is a great place to go. If you're wanting to find half price books, I went to half priced books to find a book on how to speak Latin for half the price of the book. At half price books. I recommend going to half priced books if you want a book for half the price.
Always a great selection of books. Plus if you call ahead looking for a book, they will hold it for you for 3 days.
They didn't have the author I was looking for but I didn't think they would because the new book hasn't been out long. But I still love this place!
Appreciate a nice place to obtain used books. Staff always has been friendly and helpful.
This is a great place to find some real gems!. The staff is incredibly helpful and it is such a great place to look around.
more sci-fi fantasy than other stores. good selection.
Fun place, lots of choices, frindly people, will go again.
Half Priced Books > Bookman's aka the horder garage sale. Great staff
Took a few books in to sell and got a little for all but 3 of them. Very courteous and pleasant employee.
It is a good place to take the family for books. My children enjoy picking out new favorites and going home to read.
They have a wide variety of books and really great deals! Something for any person in your family!
Great small bookstore. I can always find something to buy, and I love the kids and clearance sections.
I love how they organize the children's section. It is so easy to find just the right books for my two boys. I have a harder time finding for myself though.
Great books, great staff, reasonable prices. Check it out!
We got extra special service and were treated with efficiency and respect. I’ve never bought a car so fast. I highly recommend this car dealer.
Good shop, but don't sell books here!
Always friendly and knowledgeable staff, decent prices on used books. Also well-behaved-dog friendly.
Books a plenty and a good assortment of board games.
Also has video games.

They always know their inventory. I love calling and having them place a book in reserve for me. The friendliest staff!
I love this store. I ask about different books, and they know exactly what I am talking about.

I love this store. Every time I come in town I stop by for great deals. Employees are always so wonderful.
They had both books that I was looking for and they were in good shape
I love this book store have been going here for years.Wish they're was one in Prescott or Prescott Valley.😞 …
They have a wonderful clearance section to stock up on kids books.
The people are very helpful and friendly. Would rather buy from here than support an online book retailer. Thx half price.
I always love going to this bookstore on lunch. They always have new things, it's easy to navigate, and friendly staff.
Very nice people, easy for me to sell my old books, and great selection.
I don't know that the prices are always that much better compared to Amazon and Costco, but it's cute and local.
I love this place, you can get lost in the section of your choice. Great book selections.

People that work here are friendly and they also have good customer service
As you would expect books at low prices large selection and the ability to locate your book from multiple sources
