“I went to Legends a bit nervous, having never stepped foot in a comic book store before, but it ended up being one of the best experiences.
I’d highly recommend this shop to anyone who’s looking to get into comics. The owner took the time to come check on me, asked what I was looking for, and was genuinely excited to help me find a Lobo comic (Which is now the coolest thing I own). He told me about all the awesome different Lobo issues that their are and even showed me some new comics that came in.
It was welcoming, informative, and made getting into comics feel exciting instead of intimidating. I’ll definitely be going back to learn more and pick up more Lobo and new comics.”
“Great staff with a huge selection of books, bibles and studying aids. They also have a great selection of new, previously enjoyed and clearance books. If you've heard of it, can't find it or think it's no longer available, the staff here will find it for you.”

“This is a great example of how a physical store shapes the urban landscape and the district/city's identity.
Great merchandising, stylish space design, plenty of hidden gems, and great service... thanks for all of this.
Especially, I was impressed by merchandising (unique stands, presentation inside, clear handmade navigation).
And of course, the level for kids = its 100% rabbit hole from Alice in Wonderland, must visit with kids.
Thanks for this great example!
p.s. maybe it makes sense to add a bit more impulse-purchase range near the cash desk. There's a great tourist flow, and it will increase the level of conversion between visitors and store buyers..you know, all these bookmarks, stickers, pins, etc.”
“amazing independent local book store. Don't know why the fiction section is shoved in the basement but oh well.
New and used are intermingled which is handy I think. just don't try to get the staff to care about anything you find exciting to read cause they're way too busy and saturated!”
“If you really search the shelves you’ll find unconventional titles with content that make you think deeply - I spent too much time in this store! Will be back next time I’m in Oak Bay, this shop is a gem”
“This is such a great shop for used books! The best in Victoria. They always have a great selection and when you return a book you get a credit added to your account. When you buy a book you get a discount on it from your credits.”
“Wonderful store ran by some real nice women, affordable prices and a wide collection of books old and new. If you wanna shop local for your books in Langford this is definitely the place to go.”
“I visited this bookshop several times and bought mazing books, mostly classics. The lady who owns it is very friendly and helpful. There is a good variety of second hand books on several matters with good prices and unique editions. It also sells postcards and old photos. Outside there is a small selection of books on sale . One of my favourite bookstores.”
“It’s a great store with a warm and relaxing atmosphere. Obviously they have a large amount of books but also have a huge magazine section as well. There are many great gifts and this store has something for everyone. It’s a must visit shop in Victoria. Everyone needs a great book, so buy it locally!”
“The staff made the visit quick and easy. I'd called ahead to inquire about a book, and when I came in, they led me right to the series I was looking for, grabbed the book, and brought it right to register. The whole interaction was no more than a few minutes. Very easy!”
“Do u need to refresh your critical thinking skills? Here's that spot for a visit.
A lot of controversial ideas, concepts, and points of view... from gardening to the world's financial systems.
Just remember to use your own critical thinking?”

“Very nice bookstore, the only downside is that it is small and can be a bit crowded and hard to walk if four customers are in the store. Staff is very friendly and helpful; even though it is a smaller store, I always find what I'm looking for.”
“All employees are very nice and I find the prices of everything reasonable.
I do have a suggestion to all new students though: do not buy your textbooks until you are certain you are going to need them. Almost all my classes require textbooks, and yet, none of them are necessary for completing the class.”
“These wonderful puzzles have no prices on them. Talked to one of the two sales associates (the other one was on the till). Apparently they do not have the equipment to put price labels on the merchandise. That's done before it is shipped to the store. Prepriced books are already labeled. However, all the puzzles, unlabeled.”
“(This is written by my 11 year old granddaughter, for whom these books were ordered.) I'm very happy with Abebooks, ordered several books, all at a good price, and delivered well before estimated delivery.”

“Monro's Books has a pleasantly curated selection of brand new books, a beautiful location and a calm ambiance that welcomes all readers.
If you're looking for help, the staff are friendly, professional and knowledgeable. I almost always leave Monro's feeling good about my experience.
Easily one of the finest bookstores downtown.”
