We buy and trade all sorts of books, DVDs, and CDs!

Bring them in any day during business hours.

We'll either make you a cash offer and a trade offer right then, or we'll look at them within 1 day and give you a call.

The trade offer is usually 50% more than the cash offer.

What are we looking for?

Classics, scholarly books, current textbooks, art, photography, architecture, design, film, music, criticism, poetry, political theory, philosophy, social science, graphic novels, science-fiction, good fiction, history, memoirs...you get the idea.

What are we NOT looking for?

Books in really bad condition. Most hardcover novels unless they're classic literature. Pretty much anything else is fair game.

How much do we pay?

It ranges, anywhere from 25 cents to hundreds of dollars. We pay 10-50% of what we can sell an item for. Based on how many copies we may already have, the internet value, etc. For common books that we want we usually pay $1-2 each, with trade being 50% more. For textbooks, art books, collectible books, DVD boxsets, etc. we are more likely to pay quite a bit more.

We buy estates. We can make house calls for large collections that are difficult to move. Just ask!
