The Liberty Book Company — Local services in Rock Hill

The store presents a charming ambiance, complemented by friendly staff. However, the pricing structure is perplexing and disappointing. The majority of items are priced merely $2-3 below retail, and even significantly used books with worn spines are occasionally offered at 50% off retail. This pricing strategy appears illogical. The same titles can be acquired at any Goodwill or thrift store for $1-2. Despite my love for supporting small businesses and independent bookstores, the prices here are unjustifiably high.

It was unsettling and just wanted to get out of there as soon possible. The place just lost its magic for me. A shame I love books. Plus prices have went up tremendously. I can just go to Barnes & nobles for a brand new book for a couple dollars more or new...
