I explained that eBay listing prices don't equal actual sale value (for example, people list Little Mermaid VHS tapes for thousands, but they sell for a couple dollars). She wasn't interested in hearing that. On top of that, she made a rude comment about my age and said I was "too young to know about VHS tapes." I'm 30 years old, which was completely unnecessary and unprofessional. If you want something fairly priced, just buy it on eBay. I wouldn't recommend doing business here.

I have heard so much about Changing Hands. My sister and I were having a thrift/used…read morebookstore/dinner date. Imagine my delight to realize that the Changing Hands Tempe location was mere minutes away from our previous stop! Of course, we had to visit. I was immediately engrossed by the assortment of non-cheesy and extremely cool gift items that were at the front of the store, but also sprinkled throughout the location. I also really enjoyed that they had both new and used books. I try to limit myself to purchasing used books for environmental concerns, but it's tricky to find new titles pre-owned, so I justified a splurge and purchased two new books. The prices for both new and used books were extremely fair. In addition to the copious amounts of books, gift items, indie bookstore merch, and everything else wonderful, they also have a photo booth! My sister and I have an agreement to indulge in every photo booth we stumble upon, so we were super excited to happen upon one here. I can't say enough good things about this spot. I'm already excited to return.

It's a whole vibe and one that you just can't get with a bookstore that primarily sells new books.

I was standing there with multiple books to purchase and did not buy any of them due to managements inability to provide a modicum of customer service. I wanted the in-store experience, I didn't want the inconvenience of having to stand off to the side and purchase a book online that they could've adjusted on the spot. Their answer to this was to raise their hands as if there was nothing they could do. Your website and your customer service should not be at odds this badly. They blamed the fact that online and in-store markets operate under different conditions, but to me this ended up being more like false advertising and bad customer service. There are less expensive ways to purchase books online elsewhere without having to deal with a ridiculous and antiquated rule set.

My sister and I had just visited their Tempe location and were delighted in how similar but different this Changing Hands was from Tempe's shop. Namely, this Changing Hands has a little area for coffee, booze, and bites. Just like the Tempe shop, they have an amazing selection of books and gift items and so much more. I find their prices to be so fair, especially for a fairly small indie bookshop--support small book sellers! We also loved that this shop has a tiny art print vending machine...think of the sticker machines from your childhood that traded quarters for stickers...but cooler!

Like its Tempe counterpart, this store has a fantastic selection and a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes it easy to spend far more time browsing than planned. I especially loved the poetry section, which was thoughtfully curated and offered a wonderful variety of titles. Beyond the books, there's an eclectic mix of gifts and unique items that make browsing even more enjoyable. The coffee/bar is also a nice touch and adds to the overall experience. Whether you're searching for your next great read, shopping for a gift, or simply looking for a relaxing place to wander, this location is definitely worth a visit.
