They have plenty of books, comics, manga (in English and foreign languages), video games, records, cds, sketchbooks, journals, and movies. Most of their merchandise is in new-like new quality for being a used books store. The prices are above average as well. There is not many places to sit, but it is nice and quiet to read through anything you like. There have been authors who have come in to read and sign books. If you have any used books, video games, music cds/records, or movies they will buy them from you for a low price. Overall this I a very good store.
The check out lady was a little on the rude side. She snapped about a question that was asked. Having never been in the store before, you’re going to ask questions. She should understand this. Perhaps she should work in another area of the store and have someone check out who enjoys their job.
Loved the place. Huge collection. Book Quality like new. Price is very reasonable. Will definitely visit again
Well lit, organized, and clean. I enjoyed my first visit and will be going back for more deals.
Super friendly, they were able to get the book my son needed one day after we asked for it.
Wonderful staffs and many good books for affordable price. We enjoy you here and learn new things from this informational hub.
Ive sold and purchased a great many books here. They are always kind and quick to find whatever I was looking for. The stores clean and well maintained. Sometimes I find some real gems in the stacks here, so its always worth a browse.
My son and I LOVE this book store. It is clean, organized and has alot of books. Has 2 bathrooms and is pretty big selection of books. Prices are great!
Normally when I go to used book stores Im able to find maybe one book that Im searching for, but yesterday I was able to find every book on my list plus some. We came home with eight new treasures, and spent only $16!
Awesome experience.....awesome staff. Place was immaculately clean, too
Large and very complete bookstore selling mostly used books. Very good stock - very good variety. If you want to sell books this place will buy them but they dont offer much for your books. However, the price of their books tends to be good. Also, they sell knickknacks, agendas, journal books, cards, and so on at very good prices.
Great selection of all kinds of books. Highly recommended.
I was looking for a popular book, so they didnt have it in-store but were able to have it shipped in from another location. It arrived within two weeks. They have a large selection of media; books, comics, dvds, etc. And the staff are nice.
Lovely store. Great variety of products. Wonderful customer service.
They had the exact books I was looking for!
Such a wonderful store! A must stop for any book lover. Its also a great place to find last minute yet meaningful gifts. On top of books, they also have vinyl, video game, and movie sections. The store is littered with small, nerdy toys and cute things. The book deals are superb! Its an all-around perfect store!
Ive visited this cute location a few times. In the past, a friend and I bought Ron Douglas cookbooks. We tried a few recipes but the results were mediocre plus theres no photos in all of his books. Method To Millions book appears to be a total flop and needs to be kicked to the curb-lackluster business points!
Love this place! I always go when in town.
Great prices and they always have somethings new!
I got $68 for all of my pharmacy technician books. Worth the trip.
Employees went above and beyond to help me. For example, I asked whether they had a nice chess set and although they didnt, they immediately hopped onto checking whether any other stores had one even though I didnt ask for it. They were super personable and were able to provide great book and board game recommendations for my individual needs. It was also quite evident that they were well versed in the contents of the store and were genuine, passionate people! 👍
Great selection of books and vinyl.
This store is great! The staff is always so helpful and the store is very clean and nice. Every time I go in there are so many different books that are nice quality and very low prices. I always leave with a good amount of books! I highly recommend going and checking half price books out!
Good selection of books, music and movies
So much stuff!!! Great history selection too
Great used book store. Wife goes here once a week to grab books and its quiet and they have a great selection.
Relaxing laid back, quiet and enjoyable to browse!
Very big selection of many genres of books, including a large childrens section, and an impressive collection of CDs and vinyl. You cant beat the prices either. I love this place and wish I lived closer!
Heaven for all who love books. Also games puzzles and interesting toys.
Lots of books and movies for reasonable prices.
Half Priced Books took it upon themselves to establish a new law in their establishment. They refused business to me because I am asthmatic and cannot wear a mask, yet they let others walk around their store with no mask on. This is the definition of Hypocrisy and Discrimination. I will take all of my business elsewhere. I am also never recommending their store again to my friends.
Great little book store for those of us that are still into the real thing and not that audible or kindle nonsense. Staff is super friendly and helpful.
My favorite book store ever. I could spend hours here browsing the great priced books.
Staff was nice, but I dont think the books are half off.
Favorite place to look at books and video games. They have a variety of goods at fair prices that actually make you want to buy them!
This store is wonderful for readers. A great mix of new and used books. Friendly and helpful staff.
Friendly staff. Aisles are well mark. Good selection.
Good deals on books
Great deals on books, but don’t pay much for things you bring in :(
Love popping in here! Love supporting this small local business! Always find a book to walk out with if not a little stack of good reading.
Great place to buy and sell books.
They never have the books I’m looking for and tell me they can order it for full price (It’s called half price books aren’t you going give me something???). They also give me nothing for my books. I get maybe $2 for a new book that I read once versus my old used book store gave me $5-9 per book. Totally cheap and never have good stock. I personally rarely have a good experience and probably won’t shop here again.
Awesome book store. Great selection. I gave it three stars because of the one staff member was slow and rude. It takes away from the store. I very rarely write reviews.
I come here often and the staff is always friendly and helpful. Their movie selection is great! Prices may vary though
I love this bookstore! Tons of great books and lots of other stuff too . Totally worth checking out if you like books,movies, records, and more . Great prices too !
Staff was welcoming and friendly. Books were neat and organized. Store was very clean and does not smell like most bookstores. I will return.
Nice collection of books! I could spend hours in this place. Excellent customer service to boot.
Best bookstore. Amazing staff and collection
Lots of cool books, great place to get cheap deals on books for school required reading
It is a decent place with a lot of stuff to browse. However take the Half Price part with a grain of salt. Especially when it comes to movies and music. Most of the used movies are cheaper or the same price new.
Staff is friendly and helpful. Love going to browse.
Maybe good to buy used books, but not so good when selling books. Only received $12 for over 150 books.
This bookstore is amazing I come here every week to pick up two books after I finish the ones I was reading the previous week
Great place to get rid of old books and buy new ones, fantastic selection
Great place to find books, video games, and movies. Found some rarities here that would cost a fortune via Ebay or Amazon. Most items are also in better condition than you will find at Goodwill. Not many negatives except that Dracula poster gets me every time I go into the restroom.
Nice setup good mix of new and used books and other media
Love popping in to see what’s new on the shelves! Not hard to snag a great find!
Great place to pick up some good used reasonably priced books, games, comics, music, calendars, and much much more! Order anything from their huge national selection and it will be delivered to the store for no shipping fee. Educators get a discount!
Nice store. Friendly staff. Great prices.
Best spot around!! As a reading teacher I’m always on the hunt for new books for my students. I’m able to find the best series for much MUCH cheaper than I would at big name bookshops. I LOVE going here. There is also a discount moment for teachers with your teacher id!!
Great used book store. Books, Records and more
So many great books and comics! Well priced and nice staff
This rating is based on selling books to Half-Price Books. A number of young, inexperienced buyers at Half-Price Books/Marietta, GA store need retraining (in some cases, an adjustment in their degrading, haughty behavior), since they claim Half-Price is not interested in buying old books (1800s and early 1900s) that are “old looking, dusty, and age toned,” have some humidity stains on the top edges, or have minor cracks to hinges or joints. This has been my experience and the experience of others I recommended to Half-Price Books who tried to sell the store buyers older books. I just can’t imagine first editions and early editions of Charles Dickens, Charlotte Bronte, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and D.H. Lawrence they sniff at because the books don’t look like they were just published – fresh and in pristine condition. Ironically, some of the books they sell or have sold in their old book department (in the corner of the store) have these so-called problems. I purchased a biography about Abe Lincoln from this store that was heavily foxed, had a short tear to the front hinge, and included scattered old humidity stains throughout the text block and endpapers. It was a scarce edition, signed by the author.
One employee was rude about me flipping over my mask and saying I drove my daughter here from Florida so she could shop here.
This is a candy store for book lovers! Our youngest gets used video games here also. The staff in fantastic!
This place is a great find. Goodprices and a wide selection to choose from.
Wonderful staff. Went out of their way to make sure I saved more money. Cant recommend this place enough!
It could use a little organization in the children s section (like age levels or reading levels). But the whole store is great! And the prices are very good. The selections are very wide and wonderful to see. I love this place!!
Who doesn’t love a bookstore? Friendly staff, good selections, nice atmosphere.
Wide selection and good pricing
Selection is sparse in sections, but the prices are great!
This is a very awesome place. Love to read give it visit. They will even purchase your Books!! ⚘♥️
I like everything about the store. And the staff is always so helpful and so friendly. I’m rarely in there that I don’t have a questions and a search or two.
If youre looking for a new book, then Half Price Books should be your first stop. This bookstore chain is always well organized and enjoyable to browse. Gently used books are offered at very affordable prices. They offer a new selection of bestsellers as well.
Great place however its a little sad to see a book that cost $40 be sold for $80... Then attached they left the value village thrift store sticker which shows that they paid $1.41. I wish I didnt see that. Thats a huge rip off to me and I dont see the store the same.
I purchased three paperbacks at a reasonable price. As I was checking out, they told me what types of books were valuable to them if I had some to sell. I returned shortly with 30-40 books that met their criteria. They offered $15 for the whole bundle. No thanks!
I took several items to them today to put up for sale. I took 2 brand new Dr Oz books . Also I took about 10 Majesty and Royalty collector magazines that were in new condition and beautiful. I had been told previously by this same east Cobb store that the magazines were worth at least $1.00 a piece since they were such beautiful editions. Today I was told that the magazines and the 2 Dr Oz books were worth $2.00 total. This was not what I had been told before. They need to get the facts straight so that everyone is on the same page. I will not be back anytime soon!! I feel that they took advantage of me..
Great selection, well organized, reasonable prices.
Ok selection. Good prices
Recently discovered this place in East Cobb & love it! I have visited multiple times and been thrilled at their selections and pricing! Great place to buy holiday gifts.
They require a mask. To all who follow the science I suggest you not shop here. Mask requirements are a political statement, science has proven they dont work.
While many book stores have gone the way of the albatross, those that remain are stronger through their perseverance, just like Half Price Books. If you are looking for good deals on new and used books, this place has plenty to offer. Have you binge-purchased books in the past and are now trying to make amends? This place will pay you top dollar to unload that pulp monkey of your back and but your used books.
Awesome book store with a great staff!
This place is so nice! I go for the art section and Im there for hours. They have collectables, toys, records, and great little gifts. I love their book mark selection too!
Its a great bookstore. Ive only been the once, but they have a nice selection of new and used stuff. It kinda of reminds me of 2nd and Charles, but with a homier atmosphere
Amazing! This store has the best books, video games, movies, and TV show box sets for very affordable prices. Ive gotten all of my good video games and movies here. Its also a great place to just wander around in!
Not alot of manga books I have more at home then there were at the store. The prices werent great either honestly.
Great finds and prices. We love shopping here for books, toys, and video games. New and used merchandise. The selection is incredible!
Good deals and a lot of options
Decent selection, helpful staff
Good place for books. Wish they had an online inventory. When looking for a book, Hou have to know if its literature, young adult, suspense, etc. Makes it difficult to easily locate something without an online directory.The store is very clean and has a wide selection of books, music, and movies.
This review is for their comic book section only. They never discount their already over-priced comics that dont sell like all other half price books do and they never put out new stock even if its been sitting in the sorting area for months. They are never helpful and sometimes rude when asked if they are going to put out new stock. I used to drive twenty minutes out of my way to come here once a week because sometimes you can find good deals but out of the last dozen or so trips they havent even put anything out except for a few extremely over-priced issues. Go to the Atlanta location where the stock actually rotates every couple of months.
Great place, love love love it! Super great staff, well lit, organized, just a great place to find and enjoy!.
I cannot say that I really like this place. The money they give for used books is insulting so I now give them to Goodwill instead. Maybe you can find a deal. They never have books that the school requires so its much easier just to shop on Amazon. Much quicker and easier.
Great place to find used books.
Great selection of used books, comics, music, and movies. Everything is discounted except rarer collectible items. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. My favorite used book store
Nicely organized and well lit chain store. I scored two first edition hardbacks at ⅓rd list, plus several harder to find paperbacks. Will always be stopping here when Im back in the area. Recommended.
I love this book store. I used to visit one in Chicago all the time. When I moved down to Atlanta I was sad there wasnt one close by, but recently last year they opened one up in Marietta!! They carry great books for a reasonable price. I love Barnes and Noble, but their prices are very high for new books. The books at Half Price are gently used, so they appear brand new.
What a pleasant surprise! I went in thinking this would be a no-frills, books in a box kind of store and was pleased to see that they had SO much more. Records, gifts, comic books, DVDs, and get this, 8-track tapes. I enjoyed looking around and found what I was looking for with a bonus of coffee. The staff was friendly and helpful and the whole experience was enjoyable.
