    Overall very good books. But the prices aren't that different from market prices. Maybe 1-2$ off.

    Sell your books in the back room! If they accept them, you can get either cash or store credit.

    Order your books on the website & pick them up in store the next day. Wayyy easier than trying to find something yourself.
