BookOff

This is a huge building with tons to offer. Several shelves full of books, DVDs and other hobby items (figures, video games, etc.) I will absolutely come back, the prices are extremely reasonable and they do trade ins!

I MEAN WHY LIE?! I’m OBSESSED with this place!!!
ALL MY CLOSE FRIENDS KNOW THIS! In the last 3 years that I’ve been going here I’ve been able to put together a DVD collection of more than 100 movies! That’s a lot starting from zero!
They have hundreds and hundreds of DVDS here and their deals are so cheap! Come on weekdays because they have shelves that are $ 1 movies! They’ll have $ 2 DVDs as a standard but there are always promotions going on (3 for $ 5)… It’s cheaper than getting redbox because you get to keep these movies and you don’t have to waste gas returning them! WOO!
The also have newer DVDs that are priced around $ 7+.
Ladies… I was able to buy all the seasons of «Sex and the City» here!!! each season was only $ 7!!! I just saw a few days ago the entire collection is $ 45 in a nice case!
In addition to movies they have tons and tons of books!
They also carry electronic devices computers, cameras, printers etc. I bought a fuji camera here before and it was only $ 20 for a good quality camera that was fairly new!
Don’t start going here… it will become an addiction!

Alright. So I do still go here a lot but I must say they have started pricing things wayyyy to expensive. This used to be a good cheap book store but now they price things according to Amazon… Around 8 months ago I got a Harry Potter audiobook for 5 bucks. Awesome deal! But I just went back and they were now priced 45 dollars… I can find it way cheaper then that. Books are priced at what Target or Walmart would sell them for, like 7 – 9 dollars just for an average USED novel. They sell Funko Pop figures now too, for way too much. You can get them at Barnes and Nobel for 9 dollars and here they are at least 12. They still have some good deals but whoever decided to change the pricing needs to reevaluate their decision. Just because the service or app you are using says that Amazon was selling it for that much, doesnt mean it actually sold for that much or that I can’t get it for 2 dollars from a personal seller. People try to sell Funko Pop figures on Amazon for like 15 dollars but you can buy them much cheaper at stores like Barnes and Noble or Hot Topic. So long story short, it’s now way too overpriced. I used to walk out with 3 – 7 books and now I’m lucky if I walk out with 1.

before you leave the store, make sure to open the items you have purchased. my husband and I made the mistake in leaving before actually opening all the movies, and came home to find that one of the blu-​ray disk wasn’t in the container and instead of the movie, it was the special features disk. we called the store and they informed us that we needed to return to the store, with the receipt, in order for them to do anything about it. we aren’t from the area and are about 1.5 hours away, so going that distance isn’t really an option.
I am highly disappointed in their response and customer service.

They used to be just a used book and CD store, and now they have branched out and carry clothes and other electronics for very reasonable prices. This is a good place to BUY things-​not SELL things. I brought in some hardback books from my home– that were fairly recent and in good condition– and all they were willing to pay me– was fifteen cents each for them. So, I just took them back home, placed an ad on CL, and was able to get a dollar each for them instead. If you have some really old books, that are not in good shape, and just don’t want to bother, but don’t want to throw them in the trash… then if you have enough, it might be worthwhile for you to just bring them here. You don’t even need to make an appointment… they take walk-​ins.

What is this place? A used book store? A comic store? A place to buy a purse? Electronics? Guitar? It’s all the things!
Someone suggested I come in here and I’m glad I did. They have tons of discounted books. They even have a one dollar section, which mostly had children’s books, but I think having really cheap books for kids is great.
The more you look around, the more there is to see. It was really fun to turn a corner and see guitars, or see a person who was there to help you ship packages internationally… Literally all kinds of fun and interesting things.
They had a fairly large audio book section and a used cd section as well.
Honestly, being there thirty minutes I don’t think I even came close to scratching the surface of what this place has.
I recommend it for adventure and discounted books.

Really cool place to buy new & used domestic and Japanese DVD/​Bluray/​video games/​manga/​toy figures. Though the used books section could use some newer titles in the mix and their CDs section is lacking as well. They also sell used electronics and most recently, clothes. That’s quite unusual for a bookstore. Are they trying to compete with thrift stores? I think they could do away without the electronics and clothes. Stick with the books, video games, and videos with reasonable prices and this place will be rockin’! Overall, this is definitely worth a visit for collectors and casual buyers.

Anytime I am in town my boyfriend and I like to stop in here. There are so many neat things. From old video games to comic books to movies. You never know what you are going to find here.

I hate paying retail price for anything so I just love little resale places like this where you can get almost anything electronic, bookish, cd/​dvdish, etc…
What? You don’t feel comfortable buying used electronics without trying them out first? No problem! They will let you buy and take it home a few days… actually I think it is 2 weeks? And if you find that the electronic item you purchased does not work… you get a refund or credit… your choice last time I did it… AWESOME, RIGHT?
Just go and have fun… give yourself an hour if possible… so much to see and buy… they even have housewares… not a HUGE inventory of that but some:)

I stopped by for the first time to check out this used book store. Apparently it is more than a simple used book store like others. They also have used gadgets and a lots new DVD and Bluray movies at good price along with $ 1 music CDs.
I went there for books and picked up 5 of $ 1 used books. If you are a reader, you definitely need to check out this shop.

This is not just a second-​handed bookstore, it can be a gift shop, a DVD store, a video game store, but whatever you categorize it, it’s definitely a heaven for nerds! Cool nerds, for that matter ;-)
You can bring your old media here and sell them. After you get some cash back, don’t forget to browse what they offer in the store, because many times you can find nice books for a cheap price! I was interested in a couple of hardcover travel books with color photos that had a suggested price of at least $ 30 but they were for sale for only $ 5 each!
If you don’t end up buying anything, it’s always nice to walk in and browse. You might find some old and rare treasures that you can’t even find online unless you pay a steep price.
The aisles are very organized. The books were arranged by categories and the titles were sorted by alphabetical order; it was pretty easy for me to find stuff.
I always stop by here when I come to get ramen or grocery shopping.

Best go to place for Books, Movies and Games. Been going here for years and I have slowly cycled out my DVD’s for Blu-ray’s.
If you have a huge collection of any of the above items and you need to downsize just bring them here. You can get more selling by yourself online (ebay, Craigslist, etc.) but who truly has time anymore? Bring them here and it’s good.
Gamers out there, I was a Manager for Gamestop and I send everyone I know here now. They will match if not beat was GS offers in CASH! So that $ 10 store credit is actually $ 10 cold hard cash! So take all my items here. All January they’re giving you more for your items too. Worth a look if you haven’t already!

We had a little time after our date before needing to pick up our son, so we stopped in here for a little book browsing, which we love since we love to read and love bookstores, especially used bookstores. But I gotta say, this is more of a thrift store. Yes, there are books, and loads of comics if you like that, games, and music but there are also aisles of used dishes, kitchen wares, TVs, clocks, and who knows what else. I stopped peeking down the aisles once there weren’t anymore books in them. There are I think 2 aisles of books, leaving the rest of the ¾ of the store as «other items».
We found a 3 of the 6 books my son is looking for and did pick them up. But I most likely won’t return. Their selection of BOOKS is seriously lacking.

I walked in on a chance that they would have the book «The Paradox of Choice» and lucky me they did. And it was only 5 bucks (used)! That is super cheap considering Amazon sells it for $ 10 – 15.
Bookoff has great deals on used books, videos, video games, and a variety of tech gadgets. They do not have a database but are well organized. It may take a minute to find what you’re looking for but you may discover something new in the process. In addition, they have excellent customer service. Don’t be afraid to ask for help.
I recommend checking here first before going anywhere else. I’ll be back for sure.

On a recommendation from a friend, I took a box full of books here hoping they’d buy them back. She already warned me that I wouldn’t get a lot, but I just wanted them to go somewhere other than the garbage and I’ve shared quite a few with the local libraries already. They took all my books and I got enough for a couple cups of coffee, which works out great because Starbucks is across the way.
While waiting for them to tally my total, I perused the store and came away buying some DVDs for inexpensive. The whole point was to declutter my space, not bring stuff back, but the buys were well worth it.
In addition to books, they also buy back CDs, DVDs, electronics and an assortment of other random household items. The place was steady busy, but I was promptly helped and was there probably 30 minutes tops. I’ll definitely return here with the next box of books I decide to part ways with.

What a discovery well met. Wanted to find a cheap used copy of the game of thrones first book. Pleasantly surprised, this place sells gently used books and alot of other things. «Oohs and ahhs» came into mind as I saw also retro video game systems, animé, and manga. Admittedly embracing the inner nerd, an hour easily passed by and I didn’t think about the book yet. This business is actually part of a chain that originated in Torrance CA I believe and they have other us locations. Found the book at 3 measly dollars, way cheaper than amazon prices and good condition too. You can sell your items here, and they give you an ad that explains tips and tricks to maximize the sale. So coming here again. Can’t believe I just found this place.

This place is awesome. If you want to pick up books or movies SUPER cheap, BookOff is the best place I’ve found. Their ‘normal’ rates are pretty good for used stuff. Where they really shine is the ‘sale’ shelves in each section, where everything is only a dollar. I got the Lord of the Rings trilogy for $ 3!
I always end up leaving with way more than I intended, but at $ 1 it’s as cheap to buy something there as it is to rent at Redbox. Stop here first before you rent! You can probably watch it and resell it on eBay at cost.

This place has a huge selection of books. You can spend literally 2 hours there. The prices are amazing. Last time i was there i took home 8 books for a total of $ 12. There were books for $ 5 others for $ 3 but most of them were only $ 1 dollar. This place has vintage video games i mean, SNES, NES, Atari, Xbox, Xbox 360, PS3 and a huge selection of video games. Another cool thing about this place is that they buy books, electronics, Home appliances and video game consoles.

Can’t beat the prices for books (most under $ 10 with a larger $ 1 section) or the variety. There are a lot of best-​sellers and popular books in addition to some rare and banned books.
They also have some miscellaneous items (household goods, collectables, etc.) and a rotating display (guitars, baby stuff…) along with lots of dvds, electronics, games, and magazines. Prices on the movies and electronics stuff aren’t as good.
Their purchase offers for books seem low… They offered the boyfriend only a little more than $ 1 for 6 good books in very good condition.
Love this place for buying books though!!!

«Here’s your nickel back.» I was told that is what Chad Kroeger’s brother use to say to customers when giving them change for the coffee they purchased and that’s how they came up with their band name.
They were supposed to come to San Diego for a concert but it was cancelled after a cyst was found on Chad’s vocal cords (a few days ago). It’s a concert I wouldn’t have minded going to. I was at Mitsuwa and afterwards came here to look around and found a Nickelback CD (Dark Horse).
Anyhow, on to my review of the store. This place has a huge selection of books, CDs, video games, electronics, and more! It’s been a while since I was last in here, but it seems to be much more organized than it use to be.
I found some interesting books, compared the pricing to Amazon (used) and actually it was lower at Bookoff. It’s a cool store and they seem to have a wider variety of items compared to before like guitars, microwaves, bicycles, and much more.
Customer service is good, store is clean. Parking can get scarce in this shopping center during peak times.
