They have everything here!…read more Out of all the Half Price Books in the city, I think this is the one I've visited the most. Even though it's slightly smaller than some of the other locations, there's a ton to see in store. While the book selection is good, they have a hefty selection of movies, games, music, and collectibles to peruse through as well. It's pretty easy to find things in the store, but there's staff readily available to help if you're having trouble finding something. Give this place a go the next time you're looking for a summer read or something for school!

This place is great. I love how cheap the books are and their variety. I bought five books for only…read more$32. I found one of my new favorite books here. They also have CDs, and there are also some small plushies at the checkout center. They also have pretty bookmarks from one to three dollars. You can also sell you used books. The service here is pretty good. The cashiers are usually pretty nice and usually keep to themselves. The only thing I find a bit annoying is that some of the books already other people's names on them. There are also some books in not-to-great condition. Watch out for that.

What I love about this place is that when something plays on the the radio and you want it... Just…read moredrive on by and ask the guy at the desk if they have it and they say yes or no. Or if you think of a movie that you haven't seen in a while, do the same! If you aren't in the mood to browse, this way is much better. I did this for "Gone With The Wind" one day and I was in and out in two minutes. WAALA! However, if you want to browse, this place has an upstairs and downstairs packed with used CD's and DVD's. The prices are fairly reasonable. Used CD and DVD stores are probably going out of business because of Amazon and Ebay but let's hope this one sticks around for a while for the "get it now" instead of "buy it now" factor. P.S. I am a damn Yankee, so I am not a huge fan of Gone with The Wind. :) Oh Scarlett.

I was on a quest for a cd so we swung in here. Spoiler, they had it! Finally! I was surprised at…read morehow big the selection was of everything: movies, music, toys, and trading cards. We ended up coming back and they had some obscure movies my husband had been looking for. Yup, we will be back for dvd and cd hunts. The staff was polite and helpful as well. And from what I could see everything was decently priced.

Although they won't have everything that's a given, I still found much of what I was looking for…read moreand enjoyed perusing all the many sections. The staff mainly stayed at the back desk which I found not bad because it gave me space to find what I was looking for and more. The prices differed and one thing could cost 7.99, another, $22.

We are here all the time…read more My fiancé have a number of game shops that we like to visit, but this is one of those that's at the top of the list. We find something every time we visit, and we'll find some gems more often than not. The store is organized super intuitively so we'll find what we're looking for with minimal effort, and if it's not in store the incredibly amazing staff will see if it's at another location for us. This location is also pretty game focused, so if you're looking for a wider selection of merch another location may be more suited for your needs. They do have some good merch, it's just not as much as some of the other locations. That being said, we've found some really cool collectibles here like gaming statues that are just too spectacular to pass up. I will be the first to admit that we look for every excuse to visit Game Over. Zero shame. This place rocks.

I'm officially in love with this chain of stores! Stopped in at one of their San Antonio locations…read more(though I am an Austinite), and I was really impressed particularly by the selection this one boasted. To an extent I realize this is based off what gets brought in by customers looking to sell, but the organization of this store was also top-notch. In addition to ATARI 2600 cartridges, there were a few select Commodore 64 and Intellivision cartridges; on the opposite side of the spectrum, they had a decent wall of PS4 and Xbox One. So practically no matter what generation console games you're looking for, you'll find it here! Loads of games for handhelds as well, including GameGear, PSP, and all the Nintendo handhelds. You'll also find some neat modern "gamer gear" like hats, wallets/lanyards, plushies, etc. Some old guidebooks and manuals. And a fridge full of beverages. This location has a console museum too, where you can step through time and admire how far video game technology has come! Some really obscure consoles in the glass cases, with descriptions of each. So rad! *w* There's also an Artist's Alley toward the back, where you can support local artists who do video game related art. I love seeing all the creativity and how gamers get inspired! I did come in to do an exchange, because one of the ATARI 2600 cartridges I'd gotten from another location turned out to be a dud. The employee, Jake, was cool about it and happily supplied me another copy they had in inventory. Gotta give him some props- he's an excellent multi-tasker. When I came in, it was pretty busy and he was the only one there, but he did great at attending to everyone and cheerfully at that, even with the phone ringing too! This location doesn't have a set-up to test/demo anything in the store (some Game Over Videogames do), but they did seem to have a backroom area where you could schedule to host a party/meet-up, and that's pretty neat.

My favorite Barnes and Noble!…read more The location is pretty big and carries everything you could think to ask for, including merch beyond books. Sprayed edge favorites and current picks, manga and danmei, Legos and puzzles, a Harry Potter section, you name it, they probably have it. If they don't, it's super easy to have it ordered for you. It's never difficult to find a staff member if you need assistance as they are constantly restocking shelves or checking in with customers, and the layout of the store itself is easy to maneuver. No floor to ceiling shelving units that block your view. I can't recommend this Barnes and Noble location enough. It's one of the best ones in San Antonio!

Their volunteers are always so helpful & knowledgeable. Its why I come back. Well, & the books. I came this time wanting cookbooks. I hadn't ever looked at their selection before. I collect vintage cookbooks, (yes, I use them too. ), I was happy to see the selection they had. I'll be back to look. Definitely adding this area to my focus. Right around the corner from the cookbooks are the vintage books. Well, they had this wonderful little Dick Tracy book. I knew it was coming home with me. Then, when I went to psy they were going to give me the Dick Tracy one. I told them no, I wanted to pay for it, it gives them the money. Isn't that the point!?

The Book Cellar is such a hidden gem! Tucked away in the basement of the Central Library, it feels…read morecozy and welcoming as soon as you step inside. The selection is really impressive, especially if you're into Texas history, local authors, antique books, or those special finds you don't usually come across at bigger bookstores - and at a great price. and I could've easily spent way more time browsing - it's well organized and fun to explore without feeling overwhelming. The staff truly made the visit even better. Everyone was kind, patient, and genuinely happy to help or just chat, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and personal.

Highly curated, with so many off-beat selections. Prices are reasonable for what they offer. I have found several "Holy Grails" here. I love the fun decor and high ceilings. One thing that makes it a little hard to browse is the three-tier bins. If you're under 6' then it's actually a lot harder to see what's in the upper bins without having to take things out. Not a lot of flippability for us height challenged folk. (Just a note as an avid crate digger) I make this my FIRST stop. The employees are nice, and you get decent quality vinyl for a decent price. Love End of an Ear!
