bigjimslade Posted December 28, 2005 Author Posted December 28, 2005 Half Price Books has a there flagship store off of NW Highway in Dallas. It is about the size of a dept store. I dont shop at BN or Borders anymore. I get all my books at Half Price Books.

First Lady Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 We have a new one that opened up, can anyone tell me how they are? Are all the book 1/2 off, or just some? Do they have new books??
kfinto65 Posted December 29, 2005 Posted December 29, 2005 When I shopped there years ago every book was 1/2 off. I would be still buying books from them but the nearest one now is over 70 miles away. I don't remember seeing many new books.

Do they have new books??Half Price Books is a great store. Everything in the store is 1/2 off the sticker price on the book or more. I am a film historian and I go there alot to find great deals on books about Hollywood. Some of my great finds include a coffee table book on the history of MGM for $10.00 brand new and still in the shrink wrap, Veronica Lake's autobiography which is selling on ebay for $50.00 I got a used copy at HPB got $7.00 and verious hard to find books at a great price. They do have new books but you have to look for them and some of the stores have a new book section which the books are marked at 1/2 off. Half Price Books will buy out warehouses where they will get brand new copies of newer books and mark them down to 1/2 off. Also if they have alot of copies of one title they will mark them down lower the 1/2. As I said in my last postings I dont shop at BN or any other book store. If I need a new book I go to Amazon.com which I can use my Borders gift card there.
