Love it... They have all you need for a being the book nerd... Lol you can easily spend lots of money there... I will frequently be going back... I did but a game to meddle with and they have a great game selection...

Always a great place to shop and find unique and sought after books. Plus the trade in program is nice, even if they only give you 10% of the selling price they’re able to do. Keep an eye out for trade-ins to get more bang for your buck. And local authors can partner with them to promote their book.

*update. ...I received a call back from corporate. He offered me 25% off and apologized. He informed me that when they were notified, they informed all stores to honor the 20% off for that day.
If only this store manager would have bothered to call anyone, he would have been told to honor the 20% off. I used the 25% off, but only for a $100 basket. My heart was no longer in it. I will raise to 3 stars due to corporate and I love the Bibles I find there.

Be sure to check the date of the coupon, not the words of the text. They will not honor their misprint. I won't be back. They have lost a very faithful customer and the thousands I spend in there a year, all because they wanted to keep the $55 that the coupon would have given me the next day. Text coupon said TODAY ONLY, coupon link had the date for the next day. But I was to blame for not opening the coupon before going to the store.
$561 worth of books in my cart (before tax) with a 20% off coupon. They wouldn't honor THEIR incorrect text message. Some guy said he would give me 10% off, or come back tomorrow. I spent 2 hours shopping, I was not coming back and spending my time and gas to do it all over again 12 hours later. Even if they just put the cart to the side for me to purchase it the next morning, what would be the difference in honoring the coupon now? I have never had a store not honor their own mistake. The 10% difference amounted to a grand total of $55. They have lost thousands to save $55. I have religious spent $400-$500 every 2-3 months, but hey....they saved $55.
I am still sad at all the great books I had to walk away from, but I can't support bad business practices.

This place is a book/music/movie lovers dream! Books and music as far as the eye can see! They even sell albums and album players. I even saw an old school cassette player boom box, but it was “modernized. I walked out with 3 books, under $17. Can’t beat it. Only thing that could make this place better is if they had a comfy couch seating area where you could relax and ready a bit before deciding to purchase.

Great place to sell any stolen collectibles, books, records, etc as they don’t have unique serial #s on them. Even tho they track all purchase transactions, having a police report siting a name as well as a short list of specific and rare items that happen to be located next to each other on their shelves this is not enough for them to crosscheck their records for the name any further. They also tell the police that a faceless/nameless/contactless Loss Prevention department would have to contact them to look into it do any further. This type of situation with stolen goods is always difficult to prove and get sorted however their effort to help was surprisingly absent. Very disappointing and shady considering how expensive they price everything and try to have an “upscale” feel to their business.

I I was little surprised when I got there. This store put South Boulevard and the one in Columbia the shame. The store may even rival the one in Augusta. When you see in my pictures, the the place to stocked for the upcoming holidays. Of course, it offers books and dvds among novelty clothing items. Games in both electronics and board.

I will let you know more about the buy back program. In a few days.

Variety is the word and there's plenty of it. I can't imagine walking in and leaving without gifts for friends and family. Can't say if their trade offers are fair, I was just there to kill some time.

My only complaint is their "back issue" comic book pricing is random. Some have pricing, others would need to have a quote from the front desk.... sure, go ahead and make up an arbitrary number in my face to charge me. That's kinda strange but overall it's a great store to stock up on books, games, dvds, and even legos!

If you are a major book lover like I am, THIS IS THE BOOKSTORE FOR YOU! This is my favorite bookstore to come to whenever I sometimes just want to get out of the house or I need something new to read. This is conveniently located close to my home. It's a really huge store but very organized. They have all the books organized by genre and are relatively easy to locate if you are looking for something in particular. They do sell other things beside books, they sell bags, bookmarks, reading accessories and other miscellaneous things. They also sell music, guitars, bibles, and a variety of candies. You can definitely get lost there looking at every little thing they have to offer. They also have a lot of bargain books. I've scored a couple of popular titles for only $5, which is a huge score! I definitely recommend coming here if you're looking for a new book store to browse at. All the employees are super polite and extremely helpful when you ask them a question. They are located in a shopping center right next to a petsmart, so they do offer plenty of parking spaces for you to choose from.
