  • This is a big store with a wide selection of books, magazines, music, decoration, household item, etc. Prices are ok. They're slightly cheaper than new but really expensive compared to what they pay for items. If you buy something for $10 they probably paid less than a dollar. If they sell you a magazine for $6. e.g., they probably paid 10 cents or a quarter. The reason I'm writing this review is to let you know that Bookman's will give you virtually nothing for your stuff. You're better off taking everything to Goodwill and using a tax write off. Here's what happened to me. I called them first and asked if they'd take my books. They said yes as long as there's no writing in them and they're in good condition. I asked them roughly what they pay and they wouldn't answer. I was told to bring them in and they'd give me a price. So I boxed up 6 large crates of books. Most were in like new condition or brand new and the average price new $15-20. I drove 5 miles to their location. They wanted me to bring all the stuff in. Because the crates were heavy, I gave them one crate and asked them to me to give them a price on one crate first. An hour later they offered me 50 cents for one book and $1. for another. They wouldn't take the other 50 books. I had brought them about 300 books total. So I took all my books back home and refused to sell them the two they wanted. I was ticked. I wasted a couple hours of my time and my gas for nothing. I think everyone should know that Bookman's pays next to nothing for the items in their store and worse yet, they won't take most of your stuff. This means that after waiting a long time for them to price your items, you'll probably need to take almost everything back home. To let you know, they did offer to pay me a little more if I wanted store credit. So if you like exchanging items and don't mind paying a large premium and you have small light weight items that are easy to take back home if they don't want them, then Bookman's might be the perfect store for you. Personally I was not happy. If they only pay 50 cents for a $20 book and reject most of the books, then I should have been told that on the phone. All they did was waste my time.
