My favorite used bookstore in nyc. Small, but always something interesting there
Last time i came to NYC i got 2 books here. It's a relatively small book shop but the selection is good and the prices are fair.
Amazing selection. I found two old used books that I wanted very much.
Great bookstore, but some materials are overpriced even if some of them are not in the best conditions due to age
Pretty nice selection of books! A bit cramped and the prices were also a bit high. Also the same annoying song was playing on a loop for some reason, but what matters is that I walked away with a nice first edition with promo materials and I also got two neat postcards. Worth the visit if you love literature.
I love this place they always have the strangest books but still get orders of all the new content I want. Newer books can be priced a little high but so great for used books. Top two books I’ve bought here are One Hundred Poets, One Poem Each and Astrology in the Vedas.
Pretty rude young lady staff member interaction when I tried to drop off my books. Also laughably low prices offered (50 cents for good condition popular books). I was fine to just donate the books but let’s not be mean about the interaction.
Wandered into this tiny little store while walking down bleecker street on a rainy day. The owner (?) was friendly and had a thorough knowledge of the books on his shelves. He offered some recommendations that I'm excited to check out. Lots of secondhand books from well known authors in the western canon, from Gogol to Junot Diaz.
