Half Price Books — Local services in Deerfield Township

Love this chain in general! Insanely reasonable prices on books, sometimes brand new for 50%+ off jacket price; left today paying less than 20 bucks for two new condition books that would've totaled 50 elsewhere, and aren't in Cincinnati's library system. Pretty large selection of vinyl records in great shape, but not many current or well-known artists. Found a few CDs I love in their CD section, but I own them already so no need to grab them (if you need Smashing Pumpkin's classic album Mellon Collie & The Infinite Sadness in great condition with both album art booklets intact for 10 bucks...GO GO GO! Hahaha. I also passed up a great copy of the 2-disc Led Zeppelin collection Mothership for 7). DVD selection is pretty good as well, and if I'm not mistaken they have some VHS? (I could definitely be mistaken lol). Staff seems to be helpful, although I didn't require their assistance I overheard them helping quite a few customers and they seemed to walk away pleased; sounds like they can also check stock at their other locations and transfer the items there for customer pickup within a week or two...very convenient! All in all, this secondhand entertainment chain with a good selection of new stuff and seemingly helpful staff is a great...

This place is amazing if you are looking to buy...or simply just looking. They have the coolest toys/books/activities for children. My toddler and I love coming in and looking around. I was shocked at first with how cool the kids section is! BUT i do have to say if you are wanting to sell things, I would personally look elsewhere. .my friend had a stack of gently used records and was curious how much she would get for them. We first took them to a different place and got a quote, then went to HPB to get a quote. For 35 records the other place offered $68.00 , she wanted to get another offer before deciding..WELL for the exact same stack she had been offered 68 for...HPB offers $9.18 Irepeat. $9.18.....then I had also brought in 3 diaper size boxes of books and was offered $12.36 (for about 25-30 books) declined the offer went elsewhere and got $32.43.

And again this is my own experience. I do highly recommend this store bc they have really cool stuff! I just dont at all recommend selling to them...bc ifs a waste of time...

Awsome place where you can get used books for half the price as new. They also have new books for cheaper than going to the bookstore. I love half priced books and I've been to every one in the area. I've even been to the one in florence KY. I love these stores and each one has it's own unique books so it pays to visit them all if you don't see what you're looking for in one you might find it in another. They also have amazing clearance sales every few months where they rent a space at a convention center and lay out tables covered with books for $2 each. It pays go go to the clearance sales as soon as they open though because a lot of resalers go in and whip the place clean of the really good stuff. I'm a manga addict and they are normally like vultures on the tables picking up mass bundles of books and tossing them into carts so move fast if your looking for...
