Half Price Books in other cities:
I love this place! The employees are knowledgeable and friendly. I called and reserved a book for my son. It was at the counter when we got there. He read a few pages and decided he didnt want to commit to it. No issue. They politely took the book back at the counter and he explored the shelves until he found something to peak his interest.... And I found a deal or two myself.
Hey you know this store is making a customer base discrimination. I am the one of the people who like shopping from bookstores. The cashier told me that I cannot use any coupon which is officially published and distributed by HPB but she said to me that someone can use it, not me. If you do not want to mess your day, do not come this store. Rude staffs.
Decent selection, but I dont care for the incessant advertising of political alignment. I dont come to a book store to be shown which party the establishment clearly panders to. Reading involves intellectual escape. Political pandering is the opposite of intellectual.
Half-Price Books is bad for me because I get lost in all of the books that I want to buy and then get overwhelmed when I cant read them all the same night I buy them.I love this place, but I do have a concern. There is a Christian section...cool...but then every other philosophy or belief is labeled as alternative beliefs and given its own mushed up, disorganized section. This seems a little disrespectful to people who may follow these alternative beliefs. I am just not sure that a second hand bookstore has the right to lay a claim on which beliefs are valid and which are alternative. I feel like better wording could solve this problem.
I always stop into this store any time I am around it. The selection if books is great as well as the prices. Personally I go in for the board games, cds, and records though. Ive found many cds at a fraction of the price it would be to get them online and Ive never had any of them not work perfectly. This is also a great place to pick up games to play with your family that are gently used. The staff are always really nice and helpful when Im there as well, I always love it when the workers joke around with me as well even though Im not a regular by any means.
This is a great area to go to! The staff are very helpful and friendly. I have not only looked for books here but have also sold books here too. They have kindly donated books to my community which has helped a lot when it comes to the kids reading skills. The place is very clean and organized. Honestly, there are no complaints on my end. I hope it stays this way!
They have limited hours to bring in books to sell 12-3 weekdays except Thursday.They will donate or recycle any books they do not resell. You wont get rich selling to them, but it is worthwhile to take your books to them rather than trashing them. It can help others.They have a huge selection of books with a large variety of subjects. Also sell records, cds, and dvds.
Warning the employees will call the police even if you are doing nothing wrong or IllegalPre covid they were a great place to shop now Im afraid to return for fear of getting arrested for not being likedI dont know how they went downhill so fastPlus I am fully vaccinated and even shown them my vaccine cardI was at half price books in BurlesonBecause I refused to wear a mask they called the cops on me to have the cops arrest me they also refused to let me buy a movie that I was willing to pay forThe cops need to deal with drunk drivers drug dealers murderers etc. not get called out because someone was not breaking the law and was not in emergency distressI refused to tell them that I had ran for city council or that I am going to run for city council next year because you need to treat everyone equally and not discriminate for any reasonTreat others as you wish to be treated aka the golden rule
Ive never walked out without something in my hands, and usually a double handful. Staff is helpful when needed, otherwise you can explore at leisure. Ignore negative comment below. Without details defined it is easy for someone to be critical. I love this place and encourage you to help it stay alive.
I dont feel that its necessary to tell me cover my whole face. I had been out walking and was already short of breath. Shopping at your store was a luxury not a necessity. The staff needs to understand that not everyone can breathe with their faces fully covered. I just left the store.
I went in looking for a specific book. One of the staff asked if I needed help. I told her what I was looking for. She had me follow her to the registers and looked on the computer and told me they didnt have it. But called one of her associates over and told me if they have it she would find it. She logged in a different computer and told me she thought they had it! She took me straight to it! It was the only copy they had left. The staff there is totally awesome! They really went out of their way to help. To top it off... It was 2 days before Christmas.
Love this store. You can call and ask if they have what your looking for and have it at the counter for quick easy pickup. But if you have time to look around it’s well worth it. You will leave this store with great prices you spent on your books- records or whatever you buy. A great plus to this store is that the employees are very knowledgeable and can help you with a smile on their face. 😊
I will always love this store so much. The employees here are so amazing and sweet. Some of the ones work here for a long time, ive developed a friendship with. Everybody is very helpful, they work hard to keep the store clean,They are very nice to kids,and being a shorter person its hard to reach the higher shelves, and i appreciate when sombody is willing to pause what they are doing to come offer assistance. I couldnt prqise this store enough
Great selection, clean layout, staff were hipsters as you probably guessed (but nice enough). They have a good kids section which is strategically placed at the BACK of the store. I found the book I was looking for even though the hipster said they didnt have it. Hasta lavista HPB!
Granted I walked in 45 minutes till closing but I counted four employees and not one greeted me or even acknowledged my presence. I was in an aisle and one employee came down the same aisle and if I hadnt moved she would have walked right into me. I even said excuse me and she didnt even respond. Neat store, uninviting, apathetic, and borderline rude staff. My return is doubtful at best.
Fabulous employees who always ask if I need help . They do not hesitate to look up books I need for home schooling and have them shipped to this location. They give me a call and let me know when they come in too! This location is always best and tidy and I frequently visit the childrens section. :)
Same book at 4 different stores is likely to have 4 different prices. Dont get too excited when you see the free coffee stand, as it is about a 25% chance that it has hot coffee. Employees rarely smile, though they do say Hi and are generally helpful. If you miss the 1970s, go visit a half-price books, and youll be in good company. They dont offer much at all for your used books and magazines. Save yourself time, and shop at their website before going to a store.
Shout out to the store here on I-35 South Freeway in Burleson/Fort Worth. The staff is always helpful in finding the books I need, and even replacing a book for me that had page publishing errors that had half my book pages missing! Nothing can replace the feel and also the smell of a good book in your hands, so glad we have Half Price Books in town💜
I drove out to this store to pick up a book that my neighborhood location did not have. Thankfully, it was only about a ten minute drive down the freeway.In the time it took me to get from my neighborhood store, they had it pulled and ready at the counter for me. I was able to walk in and get it and leave within a few minutes.
This is the second time Ive been to half priced books to sell something and I feel that everytime I sell something its way less then I hoped for. This SUCKS!!! Brought about 4 or 5 books in I get $2.00 something in change I got cheped again. I always get very bad luck. I give it a no star if thier was one. Some of the books I brought in were hard cover.😡😡 On top of that they still dont have the book that I really want either.
Alright, let me just say i love HPB, however, lets face it: their customer service is generally terrible. Their employees are blatantly anti-social, rude, and useless unless you seek them out, good luck getting any communication, especially if your trying to sell them books because lets face it, they dont know what theyre doing. They just fallow a bunch of vauge rules on a list in their head then avoid conversation and eye contact as tho its painful. Its quite disappointing and rather uncomfortable, honestly. Love the store, hate the employees, especially the temporary ones around the holidays! Makes me wanna run away and just spend the extra money at barns and nobel. :(
The Burleson store is the best. I go to a lot of different HPB stores but the folks in Burleson are always so helpful and knowledgeable and friendly. They always come through for me. The only thing that would make it better is if they had the special events like n Dallas. But I still love the Burleson store best.
Bearded smelly guy secretly mind raped me by offering to eat my brown eye and give me a Hairy Houdini and a slippery anchovie for a stale doughnut and packets of mustard.. Needless to say you get what you pay for. His form and talent were complete crap and I didnt even get off. All i got was a waste of my time and a lost a doughnut and packets of mustard. Worse trade ever.

2022-05-29This is one of my favorite place to get books. Everything except new items and new books are literally half off the original price. When bringing books to sell to them though, they normally offer barely any money for them. If you just want to get rid of them then that’s perfect for you. I don’t normally bring books here anymore. Other than that this is a great place, especially if you’re shopping on a budget.

2022-04-25I love them! I can buy good books at great prices, also they bought nearly every one of my books for 1/3 of full market value. I was glad to get rid of them. They donated everything else I didnt want or I could bring them back home. They are amazing!

2022-07-30I love Half Price. I find great books here, even a rare book a few months back. The employees are really nice. There are books, vinyls, games, comics, and little curiosities here and there. Its a wonderful place to hang out and spend time out of the sun. Nice to know that kids actually still read.

2022-07-28Was looking for a book minutes before the store was to close. The associate looked up the book and set it up to be sent from another store. Also took us back to look for a similar book by the same author which we found and purchased! Very helpful staff and friendly!

2022-06-23Five stars. Great selection. The woman who checked dme out at the counter was so 🔥 - I tried flirting and she politely did not reciprocate. Probably smart on her part. I am a bad choice. Lol. Would go back.

2022-04-07I go to a LOT of Half Price Books but this one is my favorite. Everyone that works here is super friendly and helpful, and they are always working hard. I find a lot of great stuff here for my video game collection too.
