Remote evaluation made easy

September 1, 2019 By Dan Danbom

Let me just start by saying that it's as impossible for a bookseller to evaluate a book based on a photo as it is for a doctor to tell you about your health based on the photo a urine sample (I learned my lesson THAT time!). So when a guy sent me a photo of a Harry Potter book today and asked what it was worth, while … [Read more...]

Selling books made easy

June 5, 2019 By Dan Danbom

I buy a lot of books from people. Some are delighted to sell them. Others are disappointed with what I offer them and decide not to sell. They've looked up the value of their books on the Internet. If, for example, there are 20 copies of their book for sale on Abebooks, ranging in price from $10 to $50, they will … [Read more...]

An inheritance

May 17, 2019 By Dan Danbom

I get to know a lot of people after it's too late to meet them. Their books tell me who they were. Go into a stranger's house and look at their books, and you'll come as close as possible to reading their mind. The other day, I got to meet Warren through the books his widow brought me. She came with her daughter and … [Read more...]

There is something so beautifully wonderful about this bookstore. The rows and rows of travel books really are appealing and then there’s the language section which has you thinking you should pick up a book or two. The other row is cozy and has travel guides from hard-to-find publishers beyond the typical Lonely Planet and Frommers’. It’s a cool spot to check out even if you weren’t planning a domestic or international trip, l would recommend this bookshop within the city and outside

Amazon can't do this! I brought my sister and it was absolutely amazing. Aside from the selection, the staff asked her questions about the kinds of books she liked, and some recent books that she had enjoyed. They then proceeded quickly around the store, pulling out one wonderful book after another. I was floored and flabbergasted by what came next; the staff knew how to tailor their book pitches to the audience that mattered most. My sister was wide-eyed with the possibility of so many incredible books by the time they talked her through the pile they had pulled together for her consideration. When my sister couldn't choose between the last two books, we bought her both. Major victory, wonderful bookshop.

A fabulous hidden gem of collectible and used books. The atmosphere is so welcoming and kind. I love the employees (and the shop dog). You'll find some great books here, but you'll have even better conversation.
