Thank god Seattle has an HPB. Two floors & so much to explore! Cool stuff to look at, moreso than the Half Prices I usually go to in TX. I hadddd to add a few (amazing) CDs to my collection when I visited. Hehe

Half Price books is a complete waste of time! Waited for about 20-25 minutes to find out they would only give me $4.00 for 30 books all in mint condition. I never bend the spine and remove the cover when I read them. Over half had never been read. Just needed to get rid of some of my collection. Will never set foot in one of their stores again! I will donate my books to someone else for free. Not Half Priced Books!

Two-dollar CDs for those one-hit wonder bands ... sweet! Half price travel books ... sweet! DVDs and sheet music... sweet. Fun place, great parking.

There are 2 floors of books, stationary, collectables & music. The selection is always changing.The hard part is parking, it's a small lot.Most of the employees are very nice.

I'm sure their prices on books are pretty decent but lately they've been charging scalper prices for figures and collectables which is what I frequent the store for.

A happy little store with so many treasures inside. Half Price Books in my opinion is worth the hype. There is every book genre that you can imagine,So many well-organized shelves you can examine! When you walk to your left you see a large aisleIt has records on records you could search for a while. We found a really good Frank Sinatra And even great hits on record from Abba!They have a whole upstairs as well that you can exploreWith book stacks of all topics you can implore. Self-help, cooking, adventure, & a darling kids nookYou can even grab your little one to read them a book! Board games and stationery are also carried. Got caught up in options from all the reading I tarried! I loved it so much, I brought my husband the next day He liked the options & prices, what more could he say!The front sales clerk was in a very cheery mood,So our purchase of books was from a very cool dude. We also left with two records in hand, If a Half Price existed in Cali, it'd be in high demand!

I love the HPB chain in general and this is my favorite store in the area. Always a great selection of used books, you can even order online and pick up if you like. A lot of what I read is relatively niche, I’ve even found some things at HPB that are out of print and might be considered collectors editions but still incredibly reasonably priced.The negative reviews seem to be almost entirely from people who are unhappy about the prices they were offered for their used books. Clearly a business is not going to give you what the used book is worth, they have to sell it for what it’s worth and make a profit. I’ve sold books at HPB several times and have always found the offers to be reasonable, albeit on the low end of reasonable, but selling here is more convenient than trying to find people to buy your used books for market value.

Customer service from the gray haired gentleman at the cashier could be much improved in the kindness department.

Amazing selection of books with music and books on tape too! Absolutely loved this place! Our first visit here resulted in a ton of books coming home with us. They have their books organized very well, and it was easy to find what we were looking for. There is a large main floor, and an upstairs that did not have elevator access (in case stairs are an issue for you). This is one of those places that bibliophile could spend hours in. An absolute joy to visit!

Wonderful place to buy and find books, just be sure not to use their bathroom (the sink only has scalding hot water to wash your hands).Great local, with an amazing ice cream place just a few stores down!

They have an okay selection and good layout, albeit a bit disorganized. Staff was awkward, bathroom was gross, and they couldn't even offer me $1 per book I brought in. Their offer was a slap in the face so unless you're okay with bringing in a box of books and not getting a return that's worth just one of their books, I recommend simply donating them to charity or selling online.

Half Price Books in downtown Redmond is a family favorite! They have a great selection of second-hand books and brand new best-sellers. The staff is very helpful and are willing to assist to find whatever you're looking for. Always find something to add to the ever-growing "to be read" list
