  • I was appalled when I went to this BMV Books location recently to sell a good number of my used magazines, many of which were purchased there as used or brand-new. The owner told me I could leave them there and that I should return in an hour. On the one hand, I appreciated his not telling me to come back on another day, as some used bookstore employees do, as the magazines were quite heavy to carry around, whether on foot or on the TTC. On the other hand, I thought that having to kill a whole hour seemed extreme. When I returned to the store, the owner had already gone through the magazines and assessed them. I don't know when he took a look at them, but the thought did cross my mind that perhaps he could have told me to come back in half an hour rather than an hour. The dollar amount he offered me was substantially lower than what I was offered and accepted when I was there a month earlier selling similar magazines, so I declined to accept the most recent offer. On the previous visit, I had even fewer magazines but was offered 60% more by a store employee than what I was offered recently by the owner. Doesn't make sense. BMV Books is one of a number of used bookstores in the city that demand you go into the store if you're selling a lot of books, magazines, etc. While I understand that a staff member may have a hard time telling you over the phone whether your items will be purchased without the items being viewed yet, many of these individuals often can't even give you a straight answer as to whether their stores are even interested in purchasing your types of books and magazines. No regard is given to the time it takes someone to bring the items in and lug them around; I have found this indifference to customers at both this location and the Annex location whenever I have called to find out whether the store was interested in buying certain types of books and magazines.
