      Starting about a year ago buying lots of books and reading a lot. Most of my books are from eBay and Mercari online. Bookstores and chain stores are way too expensive. About 5% of my collection is from B&N and Books-a-Million. Goodwill is fun! I have at least one signed found there. I started my collection getting all the hardcover early edition, Stephen King books. (The first few of The Dark Tower are expensive in hardcover).

    Wish we had a huge thrift / secondhand store in my town. We have an Oxfam books (in Maidstone) and a few other charity shops and it is reasonable but it is nothing like the three stores on this video. I would be in those kinds of shops for hours. The only other place at the moment, during lockdown, are online ones and they are often way too overpriced with out of print books going for insane amounts (I always wonder if anyone actually ever buys them at those prices). Looking forward to comic ,arts / conventions re-opening as they are always the best source and best priced books.

      I agree ! In the 60s and 70s secondhand bookstores / markets were all over the place and you could find all kinds of books in any town, now it is reduced to a few charity stores that may have an average selection of books. I still enjoy looking around some of them but it is nothing like the old stores that used to be piled high with super cheap paperbacks etc. Perhaps those places still exist but sadly not near me. Rochester has a few decent ones but they are quite expensive and I would only buy if I was super desperate for that book. For me, comic marts (I love comic related graphic novels) are the best place to spend hours looking through old books / comics etc but until May, I don't think I will be seeing many of those. Went to Seattle, can't remember the store name, but it was huge ... the size of a M&S but just full of books and more books, I was in seventh heaven. That I would have had to lug them back to the UK restrained me from just buying everything. Guess that is why we have Amazon / Ebay etc but it never has the same joy as finding an out of the way bookstore and browsing for hours

In the past the same store refused you and you know it is business etiquette to reduce product price on a book that has been damaged?
