One of the most underwhelming bookstores I've visited. The fiction section looks like the shelves of books at Goodwill, basically lots and lots of junk. The Classics section is the only part that's close to being OK. This store doesn't give cash for books and on-top of that really lowball you when it comes to trade credit. The Last Word uses an electronic checkout so they seem to go through and take out stuff that doesn't sell and discount to keep a fresh influx of books moving. Not that writing prices inside the book doesn't work, I've seen plenty of bookstores use it, but they had taste in the inventory kept and had prices to match. This could be a great bookstore but for now it is pretty mediocre.
If this store wants to see more traffic they should start giving more for trade credit so more readers will come and sell books and keep a steady supply of new books. Also start pricing books competitively to online prices such as Amazon and Half.com. Just my two cents, I'd open my own bookstore if I had the money.
