Absolutely love this store!! Everyone is so nice and the books are affordable and very high quality. They also have cool pillows, blankets, and little backpacks like the one in the photo attached below. Highly recommend this place.

Beautiful, well set up store. Slightly disappointed as I had called several hours before I went in, just to make sure they were currently buying used books. I was told yes they bought used books and that area would be open til 6. I got there at ten after 5 and the buy back person was already closed. So another trip tomorrow.

2nd & Charles has been my go-to for random used books I’ve been looking for and for fun new board games. They have a very fair trade in program for books and electronics and do a great job creating displays based on various interests. The most difficult thing with this store is that the books I’m interested in end up getting scattered throughout the store and sometimes not in the right sections, probably due to customers changing their minds and reshelving in the wrong spots.

I normally love shops like this. Maybe I was spoiled by Bookmans in AZ. My wife dropped off 2 pretty full boxes of books (50+ beer books, like new or great condition) and they took everything and gave $30 store credit. What a rip off. Do not trade here. To top it off, they sell used books at new prices, often more than you can get them new elsewhere. Never going there again.

I love this place! Any time I need a present for a family member, friend, or coworkers. I always find that perfect present. Ok, also a few things for myself too.

I love the 2nd and Charles chain but this store was a hot mess. My husband shops the comics and I shop the popular fiction. Neither of our sections were in any kind of order. In popular fiction, it was sort of alphabetical by the first letter of last name but everything after that was a toss up. For example, David Baldaccis books were spread out throughout the B section with a few in A and C for fun. I always come in with a list of books in looking for, but I put itaway pretty immediately because it was clear I wouldnt be able to find anything I was looking for. Im a huge reader and love shopping for new to me books, so this was not a good experience.

I love this place...I get great c.d.s for Pennys on the dollar....

Used to be very organized and staff was extremely helpful. Now unless you ask at the checkout desk nobody asks if you need assistance.

Im from San Antonio. First time at this place and found a lot of good books for the Grand kids. Loved it.

One of a kind place, which I thought no longer existed. Will definitely be back soon!

Love it you can literally be here for hours looking everything but I still missed TradeSmart tho

Fantastic place for all your hobby needs! Couldnt be more surprised by how much they actually have.

Love coming here even if I don’t know what I’m looking for

Funny, Ive never bought a book here! Music and toys, always looking for treasure. The staff is very nice and accommodating when we approach with questions. Prices are very reasonable. I think the ownership is OCD, the place is clean and like items are in like areas with spaces of specific like items. Go check it out.

Imagine my utter SHOCK to find the exact obscure japanese bl manga that Im obsessed with, right there on the shelf. I yelled out loud. What an awesome selection of new stuff, used stuff, and music.

Great store and every location rocks. Thanks for feeding my comic book habit.

Lots of options. Staff were polite and helpful. The only thing I wanted to see that wasnt available at this location, was a place to play RPG games.

A large selection and very easy to spend a lot of time in the store. The clerks were all very nice and helpful. If you have any nerd interests this store probably has something thatll interest you

Lots of great nostalgic things to buy like old.school games to t-shirts and all the Harry Potter memorabilia. Great findstoday on hardback/paperback books. My teenager, an avid reader, found 6 books that didnt kill my wallet. For sure a cool place.for books, gifts, and games. I will be back for sure!

This place has some really cool stuff you never know what youre going to find on an almost daily basis

For anyone looking for pre owned DVD and Blue Rays this place is really cool

I went to sell some technology books yesterday. The bookseller said he will take myGMAT Official Guide 2021 Bundle, Books + Online Question Bank: Books + Online Question Bank.I bought that from Amazon but later decided against writing GMAT, so the books were like new.I waited for 10 minutes in the car. Got the message that the order is ready. He gave me $1.30 for a new $70 book bundle.I would have sent a message in fb and sold it to a student for atleast $10x than this pathetic amount. Drove 6 miles to get there!Never sell your good books there.

I was surprised by this bookstore. Its gigantic, for one thing - a huge warehouse-like space with used or near-new books of many genres, and cds, lps, and dvds, too.The comic section is bigger than I expected. It was a large section of the store, with many tall, long shelves for trades (mostly) and hardcovers (a few). Lots of manga.All the books and trades are offered at low prices, sometimes at half cover price, sometimes less. There are numerous copies of each title, all discounted. It seems to me that this is a kind of wholesale operation, with unsold books bought in bulk and then offered at cut-rate prices. A clerk told me that most of their business was in buying and then reselling used books, but many of books, while discounted, had clearly never been used.There is a section for new comics, with new shipments weekly, and the store does offer a subscription service.There is a large section for older issues of individual comics, mostly bagged, and meant to be in alphabetical order by publisher and then title. This section was very messy when I visited - perhaps it had been picked over by customers who were not very careful (or nice). But I think it may simply be just the way the store works. Disorganized, out-of-order back issues are what you might expect in a massive store operated by relatively few employees.I hasten to mention that the employees were very nice and helpful. And the cost of trades and books - wow! I dont know any other store that offers such low prices.2nd and Charles is a chain. There is another store in Centennial, and one in Broomfield, and a few others around the state. The stock rotates store to store, so you may want to check with their other locations if you dont find the book youre looking for.

My go to book store. Its five minutes from a Barnes and Nobles and 25 from another 2nd and Charles store in Aurora.Well organized. Clean bathrooms.Polite staff, helpful and cheery.

I can spend hours at a time here. The biggest collection of new and used books/movies/music/pop culture/games. There is something for everyone here. I havent tried to sell anything here, so I cant speak to that. I love this store, stuff is fairly priced (with the occasional diamond in the rough found dirt cheap) and this is a fantastic place to shop for gifts! The salespeople are hit or miss, but most are happy to answer questions and have good advice and suggestions. The stock is always rotating, which means theres something new every time. Creative displays and theme bins. Autographed and rare book section. Great place to spend a few hours looking for treasure if youre into that!

Awesome place. Tons of good deals

Came in this Monday March 1st at 1230 pm to sell books. After waiting 15 min for someone to come out to greet me, I was told I had to come back because All our bins are full. When I have been in before there are always only 2 people working behind the counter talking in the back. I have to yell if someone can ring me up for purchases. This was a good place to go when Tradesmart was here but now, really fails! Better places to go in Denver for customer service for sure.

Wow. This is one of the coolest stores I have ever been in! Books, games, collectibles, wall-art, guitars, CDs, vinylmovies-- this lovely store has it all. My wife and I spent almost two hours in here just exploring and finding some wonderful books and some early Christmas presents! We have already made plans to come back on a date night and explore for some hidden gems and possibly buy some items off of our wishlist.I sold some books to them that I no longer needed and got a reasonable amount of store credit. I would highly recommend turning in gently used books, movies, vinyl, and CDs to this establishment. It is easy, simple, and fairly quick if there are not too many people ahead of you.This store fills a very specific hole in my heart and I am so thankful I live close!

While the occasional finds can be had, shopping at 2nd & Charles is an immediate commitment of massive time simply because they are so disorganized. The comics and vinyl alone will cause anyone with OCD to spontaneously combust. Also they make a name on being where the deals can be found but beware: when its not a deal it is FULL LIST PRICE and you will find an awful lot of full list price all over the place. If you are paying list, you are getting taken for a ride. That being said you can in fact find some fun stuff and, if youre a collector, they do need to be one of your stops. Just be prepared for the frustration of being forced to flip through EVERYthing.

Secondhand store but it does sell some new inventory as well. Has good selection of books, games, comics, collectibles, DVDs, CDs and games. Also sells things like T-shirts and instruments and toys. If youre going here to sell stuff just know that the prices offered will be pretty low even if you opt for store credit. Prices for items can vary pretty widely too.Generally pretty clean and well laid out. However, the organization of the books could use a bit of work. This store is much better for browsing rather than going in for a particular item. Staff are generally friendly but sometimes its hard to find someone when you need help with something. The inventory is similar to the other locations in Broomfield and Aurora, but this one probably has the least.

Always kind of a gamble to see if they have any thing good.

Terrible. I brought in only 5 items to see value; how hard is it to get an itemized list what each was worth? Why wouldnt your employee tell.me what each was worth individually? Why would I blindly sell you my belongongs? How do I know you are being honest and not shorting me? Just show me a damn itemized list.

Always like to check if this location had a book or music I am looking for. In addition it is nice to continue the life of items by selling them on location.

Looking for a specific dvd. Didnt have it but enjoyed the search. Took my dog with me that day and they let him in the store instead of overheating in the car.

The service here is unreal. The lack of communication and blank stares on the employees faces is shocking. They work at such a great place. The other location has great service. Theres just no attention and no sense of urgency behind the counter. Sad. I miss TradesMart

Great store for finding the books youre missing. Great employees at this location!

Was once a great book store for readers. Went in there recently and now they have books arranged by author regardlessof genre. Arranging books by author is horrible now you have crime next to romance next to horror in some instances. If you like to read, and dont have a specific author in mind, avoid the headache and visit another store for book readers.

This store used to be a messy cluttered place but the last visit was nice. The random boxes of broken junk were removed and things were easier to find

Loved selling my books and being with books.

This is my favorite book store but its so much more. They have new and used books then a bunch of used Video Games (not sure about new, I dont shop for them here) used movies, board games, pop figures, records, Comics, Manga, and STUFF. Its nice to browse different stuff here always find something new. Im always hunting for Manga and here I can find some old treasures and usually they are used so they go on the cheap, most of their recent stock is new but hey, you might not find it anywhere else. They often have sales like buy 5 get 5 on movies or a certain % off. Not a bad place at all to check out. Experience may be different results may veary

Huge but has a cozy feel. They have something for everyone, its a treasure hunt.

Love coming here been coming here for a long while and enjoy each visit. The staff here is helpful and kind which makes every trip enjoyable.

Loved it, great place to find great reads. Organized and stocked

Great selection, and the staff are very friendly and helpful.

Lots of interesting things to look at!

Checked on my buy back I dropped off the day before at 10:00 am and was told it was still being processed. Went back at 6:00 pm to check and was told it was already processed as a store credit. When told they never sent a text to notify me it was ready for pickup their response was thats weird and state law requires it be store credit if its not picked up the same day. Wont sell there again.

Pretty cool place but a lot of the things they have like records and CDs etc are not categorized very well so you can spend hours looking for something you might want to get. If you have time, you might be able to leave with a gym from this place 👍

Lots of books at great prices!! Store is very clean and organized. Staff is very friendly, too!!

I asked a staff member for help and it seemed like they didnt know their own store and how it was organized. On top of that I bought a book and the security tag was stuck on to a page about mid way through the book. Took time to get the security tag off without ripping or discoloring the page and that spot on the page is now sticky.

Never have I gone to a busy that hates money lol. The new store manager wasn’t very helpful.

The thing I love about 2nd & Charles is that you can go in with no idea what youre looking for, and find something you didnt know you wanted, and every now & then, you can find something obscure youve been hunting for a while.

Hit or miss if you find a great deal, but i enjoy taking a look at all the stuff they have.

Great store to go to pick up some lore material for rpgs and the gaming inventory isnt bad either. After this pandemic is over with this place will spring to life.

Cool place for comic book lovers and good selection of older video games and consoles. Used book selection is fantastic. Something for everyone!

Good mix.of.new and used games, books, and collectibles.

2nd and Charles has a huge selection of books and fun collectables. They buy old books/movies etc for cash or store credit.

2nd & Charles is a great location for DVDs, new and used books, records, comics, and other novelty items. Everything is fairly priced and they have a great selection of different genres. Its a retro Media Center with a most delicious touch of the 21st century. I shop here weekly now to always keep my Hello Panda cravings satisfied. Not to mention the random cards and sleeves they have within the TCG spot. Locals anyone lol jk but that place has the potential.Definitely recommend a visit for nostalgic feelings if anything else.

Great place for books n music

Friendly service. Clean store. Great selection of many different books. Affordable

You never know what treasures youll find here at 2nd and Charles

Great place to find books. Not the most organized but still worth the visit.

A decent second hand store. They have a lot of stuff, but like any second hand place you never know what youll find and honestly on that mark I did not find much of anything I found interesting. In general they are on the high side of used for prices, but not so high that driving elsewhere is appealingGood prices on old comics.Video game stuff is on the high (to too high) side for retail and the selection is iffy but there are not a lot of places carrying retro stuff so maybe this is ok.

The staff here are great. but I am having a bad experience with their buyback program. Decided not to sell, and when I take account of all the games, ONE IS MISSING. Now its a he said, they said thing because there is no official check that all games were in their case. Now Im down a game. Sounds like a poor system. Make sure you account for everything with the associate, at drop off. And dont leave until you check everything thoroughly.

The store is half as big and the prices are higher. Most of the store is now books. Although it is more organized, they have not put the same enthusiasm into the spirit of the store as there was in tradesmart.

A good place to find physical media. New and used. If you still access entertainment that way.

Found really great deals here!

Theyve got really cool stuff! Huge funko pop selection and a lot of little trinkets. I personally got some cool cards for my boyfriend and a miniature inflatable tube man for my best friend who sells cars. They have a broad selection of things, mostly catering to the geeks of the world. And they have a cute kids section as well.

Great selection. Not the most organized or easy to follow layout, but we eventually find what we were looking for. Staff was friendly once you find them

I love any 2nd & Charles, but this one seems to get more random anime products and collectibles.

Great selection and friendly staff.

I like used bookstore, but this place organized their books oddly, hard to find anything.

Friendly staff and a huge selection. Plus you have to love a place that has a books by color section. Though they are playing Christmas music way too early

Really cool free bin

2 and Charles is a decent store

Great place but watch the price. They dont always come up what it says.

I liked it. Wish it had more of a selection of miscellaneous items like electronics and toys. Its almost like tradesmart just less miscellaneous items which what made the last store interesting. I like it though appreciate the service

Good selection of pop culture stuff. Funky Pops, vinyl albums (Mac Davis Christmas anyone??)

This place has an amazing selection of entertainment and geeky merchandise. Its like Barnes and Noble but with both used and new materials. They have good prices and actually give good buyback amounts, so you can sell your old stuff and get cash or store credit. I was surprised how much money I got from my old stuff! This is a great place to find gifts and little treasures. I love all three of their locations!

You couldn’t pay me to shop here anymore. I saw a game that I really wanted, so I took it up to the register to purchase it. They told me it was stolen and when I pressed them to find it they gave me a “yeah, we don’t care” attitude. I used to shop here every now and then, and now I’m never going back.

Love new places and so do my boys when i have taken them

Pretty sizeable store with an open layout. Tons of books to browse through. Lots of video games as well, especially for the older consoles like the Xbox 360 and Playstation 2. Theres a wall for comic book related figures and collectibles that is pretty cool. Tons of the Funko Pop figures. Lots of DVDs and blu-ray movies and TV series box sets/collections. Music as well. Cant forget the CDs and vinyl. All in all a really cool shop that I try to stop in every so often just to check out any new additions or find another hidden gem on the bookshelves.

I love there old school cds

Love that a closer location opened up! They have a very big childrens section full of super cheap books, staff is always friendly!

Needed to clean out our DVD library. Glad they could use some of them.

Always a joy to visit and the selection they have is unrivaled

You can find virtually any book here. I got The Help for a dollar. Worth the time

One of my favorite places. Friendly staff and a treasure trove for all types of media lovers.

Love this place! But prices are a little higher. But still.cool.

2nd & Charles is FABULOUS....I found two great Jazz albums in viny and l am looking forward to hearing them when I get back to Blue Island, Il(Chicago)

I’m sure they have a lot of great books but it’s nearly impossible to find them because their sorting is a hot mess.

A really nice selection of books

Great place to find something for everyone in the family.

This store has some really cool stuff.. because they take advantage of people like me. I needed money for gas due to COVID hiring and had to sell them my LoTR special editions amongst other things. Gave me $6.95 for $300+ in belongings. Will never go back here again. -18/10

Lots of cool stuff to find here. Also neat and clean.

Reminds me of the place it used to be TRADESMART

Great place if you read or like movies video games gifts etc. Shop here at least once a month.

Pretty friendly staff. Im slightly disappointed in how limited their manga section was. However the location itself is wonderful

Excellent place.. Jordan (cashier) very attentive and great customer service

Cool vinyl selection, a little pricey. Scored a signed album for $6 that i am sure slipped thru the cracks.

Went to sell my used books they offered me $2.30.
