Wonderful if you sell or shop. This store is wonderful. Not only do they have books that you are searching for, but they have things you didn't know you needed/wanted!

And I don't know about the last comment. The person must've had bestsellers from a few years ago and textbooks that already had newer editions out.

I mean, you'll always get more money selling something yourself because you cut out a middle man. But if you don't have the time or patience, they always make a fair offer based on what you give them.

Nice bookstore, but don't sell your books there. Half-price books has a very comfortable atmosphere to be in. They have a lot of books to choose from, including well-known favorites. If you're trying to sell your books, you should look elsewhere. I sold my books there, including bestsellers, textbooks that were recently released, and a few paperback books, they offered me $10 for all of them (I sold 15 books in total, which if you break it down, the average per book was $0.67). So in summary, nice bookstore, but if you want to sell your books, sell them on Amazon or some other site where you can get a decent amount of money for them.
