Have not visited the store in person but had an excellent transaction via email and their website. I was searching for a particular signed book and found it at Balin Books. I emailed some questions about the book which were answered promptly. Shipping was quick. Overall a great experience. Thanks.

This book store has a variety of sections. But sections are limited. I did find a couple of books in the sale section. The employees were very nice.
