| - Half Price Books is very similar to Bookman's except that they do not give you credit - they give you cold, hard cash. Who doesn't love cash? We recently moved and had a lot of entertainment items we no longer needed/wanted. I decided to try Half Price Books and was pleasantly surprised. They mainly carry books (a whole lotta books) but have some movies, music and very little video games. Their selection is eclectic and random. A lot of newer items too. When you bring items to buy back, you give your name and must stay in the store while they go through your items. This gives you plenty of time to wander. As I said, they have a lot of books. The movies were a good selection of newer items and had plenty of DVDs, Blu-Rays, and even VHS. The video game selection is rather dismal - only a few Wii, PS3, Xbox, DS, and even SNES games. (A few PC games as well.) Bookman's definitely has them beat in this department. Overall, it was a good experience and I'd go here again. Definitely a great place to find something for a friend/family member as well.
