My wife and I went here to see what selection of books were available, since we like to go to Barnes and Noble, but aren't willing to drive one hour every time we want to go book shopping. The selection at Jenson was pretty good and their prices are also quite competitive. I looked at their tabletop game section and found an expansion set for less than half the listed price on the manufacturer's website, which is a really great deal. The pieces were not damaged in any way either.
However, some of the posted sales should be more detailed. A discount sign was very misleading because it said all items of a brand were on discount, but that was not actually the case. All the sign needed were a few more words explaining what was and was not on sale.
I would definitely come back and see what is new as their inventory...
Read moreThe phrase "best-kept secret" may be a bit cliché, but that seems to be what Jenson Books is. I'm actually glad that it's not very busy when I go to browse. I like the $15 per bag book/DVD sales that have happened periodically, but the store allows you to see the whole selection of books and DVDs in a nice environment. As one who declines to get on the subscription streaming bandwagon, but still likes movies, $1 movies is like a dream. I look forward to more exciting visits. Lost a star because of the exchange policy--if you bought an empty case with no DVD inside, that's on you. But the price is still awesome and I still greatly appreciate the store, particularly now in an era where there seem to be so few similar...
Read moreHoly smokes, I went to their physical store here in Logan with a friend. It’s a small part of what looks like a shipping facility. When we went in, there was a reception desk instead of shelves. The guy at the desk asked if we had an appointment and I was almost ready to tell him we were lost, but after we explained that we were there to browse for books, he led us to a collection of shelves in a small area between some office rooms.
It’s definitely one of the strangest book stores I’ve seen, but they had some great deals and there was even some manga! It was a ton of fun and the people were nice! I hope more people go there and the folks at Jenson books widen their selection of books...
