Great place to purchase any book you can imagine! Organized clean and friendly….the only down side is you make nothing off of selling to them! I took two large totes of books, Blu-ray’s,and cds (new seal tv series) etc more than 100 and only took home $7 even though they wanted everything that I brought in! Great place to shop though!
One of the final brick n mortar bookstore hold-outs, but despite the market prospects this store is standing tall and proud. A meticulously organized healthy hodgepodge of topics and titles in a smart & simple layout thats effortless to navigate. Super friendly and helpful staff, which itself should merit 5 stars in this quasi post-pandemic period were in (of thats what were calling this). Respect. 🤜🤛
Great store! I bought a big pink book and there was a pretty girl with a bob cut in a sweat suit.
I always have a good experience here. The staff is quick and helpful. I have a nice time to searching through the inventory. Its always clean.
GREAT store to buy and sell books!! They have an AMAZING selection of great quality, like new books (a lot are) for every reader!!! They also have a wonderful selection of like new/new other goodies such as gifts, stationary, mugs, moon lamps, CDs, records, childrens interactive items, you never know what you will find!!! Everything is reasonably priced well. This place is also a great place to sell your used books! I sold mine the other day and walked out with almost $80.00 in cash!!
It seems like there were a lot more books to choose from since the last time I was there. It is a great bookstore.
So many beautiful books! The staff was welcoming, the shelves were stocked, and at wonderful prices. I added 7 books to my personal library, although it was very difficult to not add even more
Always loved this store. The ambiance is very relaxed. They have a little bit of everything. I tell a lot of friends about them. Only negative comment is the prices have really gone up. But still less than youd pay in a typical book store. So much to discover here.
Lots of cool used books and movies. Id rate them higher if they didnt rip me off at trade in every time.
Always like going into a Half Price Books and checking out the DVD section. I found 4 on this visit.
Super friendly people and a fun selection of pre-owned board games, books, and more! Great prices, too! Highly recommend!
Definitely a good place to get books. In this place every other week.
I love browsing here and the prices are pretty much always great
Lots of inventory to go through, plan to spend some time and find something unexpected!
Definitely the best bookstore in the Pittsburgh area. They have a huge selection of books from a variety of different genres that can quell the thirst of reading for any booklover. The store also contains a decent selection of movies/tv shows too. One of the things they could improve on is being more varied in their tv show prices. Everything hovers around $10 even when it should be less or a little more. Same with their movies.
Large selection, nice prices. I love this place
More like full price books, half price service. Not entirely their fault though, because Im not sure they have much control over their inventory. The pulp paperback selection is good, though.
The selection of books was fantastic. It was organized by category and alphabetical, so easy to follow and find what you are looking for. I also got some non book items as well that Im excited to use. My friends mostly got fiction and I got non fiction. Ill definitely be coming back and exploring other books and subjects.
Great store. Low on adult coloring books
Really like the place, but they did not have the books I was looking for. Robert McCammon stinger and Bethany sin
Brought items in to sell. Would not let me wait there to get the pricing details. Was told to go walk around and stop back for the total offer.
Fantastic selection and prices, nice extras too such as cards and some toys. Very helpful staff!
Always find great books to feed my book addiction. LoL
Nice employees and a huge selection to choose from but should be called full priced books. Some books are over priced for the condition they are in.
Great staff but this location is small compared to others I have been in.
I the post previously attached to this was supposed to be attached to bookmarx.Half priced books doES sNOT even deserve 1 star. Totally rip off
Very nice store and have a decent selection of books.
Fun to share books and get a few coins!
I cleaned out my book shelves to make room for a freshly curated batch of books and got $16.00 for my castoffs. Thank you Half Price Books.
Always find something new to read. Prices are great.
Love being able to sell books and it’s a great atmosphere
A extensive selection of books that are generously priced. The books are neatly organized in an efficient and useful manner which makes finding something to read quite easy.
Good place for childrens books!
Great selection of books. Knowledgeable and friendly staff.
Good selection and prices 👍
I dont stream movies or music so having a a place that does sell cds and movies is a blessing.
Cute little book nook! Great priced books and good selection!!
Very nice place employees very helpful will stop there again the price was right also
Love this book store! Everybody there is kind and courteous! Very reasonable prices and a wide selection of books!
Great service and very helpful!!
Lisa was very knowledgeable when she discussed insurance matters with me. She knew what she was talking about. The young lady in her office, Natasha, was also very helpful.
Good service, excellent book and video selection. Discount for teachers
Awesome store with so many different books one could easily get lost in there looking at stuff. Thanks.
Great place!!!!! I wish they had a location in Beaver County...maybe join forces with a local bakery and coffee shop to create a great hang out within the Beaver Valley Mall.
Very friendly associates and a huge selection. They sell other things besides books so check em out.
Love this place it’s my go to place for my son’s school books
I love this store! I could stay and browse all day and I always find something for either myself or as a gift for someone else! Feels like the 90s in there!
Best place to buy books been to all in my area. Very pleased with the selection they have.
Half priced new and used books, movies, DVDs, games, puzzles, reading accessories, cards, etc. Excellent store.
Wonderful staff and can always find something youve been looking for with the huge selection of books, games, movies and music. Take your no longer used books/games/movies for instant cash.
I sold over 100 DVDs here and only got 36.00 dollars for everything it should have been more . 😟
My children really enjoyed visiting the store. They had a great selection and the books were priced right. We will definitely be back!
Always love coming here. Found a Chem 2 reference book for my college Freshman
Good deals on comics for kids ...
Wonderful finds! Great prices!
Fun place to shop. Good selection.
Manager is exceptionally rude and confrontational. One of the employees actually apologized to me for their managers behaviour before I left the store. That is extremely sad. I will stick to the Monroeville location from now on even though it is a further drive.
Best half priced book location we have been to in Pittsburgh. We are clearance section shoppers, and their clearance section is always loaded with great finds. We have also found a plethora of reasonably priced new books at this location that we haven’t found at some other locations. If you are looking for a great price on books, swing by!
Always beyond helpful locating books, offering to order one not in stock, and knowledgeable. Very organized and friendly!
Awesome used bookstore!
They have a great selection of books dvds cds records and board games.
The amount they offer to buy books for is pretty insulting considering they have no problem gouging people on their listing prices. 👎 I recommend Facebook Marketplace, Amazon, eBay, or just donate them to Goodwill.
I brought in a stack of new cds and books and they offered me $3. they will rip you off here. avoid at all costs. facebook market place and mercari are places you can sell your own items and actually get what they’re worth.
Good service with clean hands!
Love this place! So quiet and peaceful. I love the smell of old books
Always great finds here, no matter how often we visit!
I love this store! Staff are very helpful, the prices are great with a nice selection. Youll find some really cool rare stuff in there and they can order books for you too!
While I didnt particularly care for the newer Stephen King book that I bought there, I have to say that I liked the store itself. Worth a visit!
Not really half priced.. They are on the upscale of almost half. Wide selection but still didnt expect 10 books to be 75 dollars
The book selection is excellent, the prices are great, and everyone who works there has always been pleasant and seemed to appreciate my purchases.
Fun place to grab reading material, music, and much more.
We regularly visit this store because of how fantastic their prices and selection are. They have everything from antique books to new releases all at reasonable prices. Phenomenal place! A hidden gem!!!!!!
Always a great place to find a book you didnt know you wanted
Who doesnt love a good bookstore? The staff are doing an excellent job keeping everyone as safe as possible and still working hard to get through all the drop offs.
I took in about 20 books and movies and they gave me $3 for all of them!!!! They have a nice selection but they buy used books and movies and then sell them for wayyyyy more than the price they pay you for them, way more than triple the price! Ridiculous and such a rip off!! The money they give you doesnt even cover the gas to get there.
Horrible service. Staff is disrespectful and rude.
Its a dangerous place for my wallet! Such an incredible selection of books at very reasonable prices!
Its a book store. Haha
Employees were very friendly and helpful. Store is clean and organized. I was looking at games and my only complaint is that I felt that some of them were priced too close to retail value for something that was used.
This is one of my favorite book stores in Pittsburgh. The selection of books is good, the staff is nice and helpful, and its hard find better deals on books. I have been back to this place many times, and I always walk out with more books than I first intended to buy.
Great selection of books at good prices. Plus comics movies music video games board games and even legos. Always helpful and knowledgeable staff.
We like supporting used bookstores like half price to promote recycling resources and to generate a greater interest in literacy. The staff are friendly and helpful. Sales are really good too. It would be nice if they paid more for selling books and such but I understand the need to cover overhead especially when sometimes they have sales with major discounts. They take a risk every time they buy something so I get it. This location has a great selection and one can often find real gems that might be hard to find at least for a reasonable price.
Lovely place, friendly faces، good service
Theyre a little expensive for used books, but they have an extensive, well-organized selection. Their process for selling used books is also really easy and convenient. We dropped off a box and duffel bag of books. They priced them out while we shopped, and then gave us a receipt for store credit or cash. Couldnt be easier.
There should be more places like this. The staff is friendly and knows their stuff. If they cant help you, they will either find someone who will or straight up drop what theyre doing and Google it. The book selection is great and diversified. The prices seem honest for what you get. They run some frequent deals where I find myself buying more than I can read.Overall a great place to stop by and have an actual book buying experience without feeling like youre being extorted for your money (Im looking at you Barnes & Noble)
Great place, great prices on books used and new. Always leave with a stack.
Great little place, such a variety of literature and neat items. Really good place if youre looking for odd comic books and records. The staff are super nice and very book savvy
Great selection of books at great prices!
This is the greatest place on earth for book readers. Found several old hardcover books that I collect. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful cant wait to come back.
Friendly, professional staff... pleasant experience selling items and nice selection and prices for purchases.
Friendly staff and so many kinds of books and fun stuff!
A good place to get rid of books but dont expect even reasonable compensation. Money cant be your motivation. I brought a number of books and at least two of them were rare and comps on line for just one was at least five times the total they gave me. I didnt care. I just want someone who want the books to find it.
Great place! Me and my brother visit almost every other weekend. They have tons of books for great prices too! Some books even down to $2.99. I recommend stopping by if you have a chance.
