Larger than other HPBs I've been too and has a wide selection of books & media for all tastes. Can lose a solid couple hours selecting books here anytime I visit. Great value for money. read more

I've been here a few times now and the selection is decent, the prices are good. I usually bring my daughter here to check for books she likes before we buy them new at Barnes and Noble or Amazon. The service is good, because if they don't have the book they'll check other locations or you can order them online. There isn't any seating.tontest read a book however. However they do sell other stuff bills8, like Comics, CDs, Records, etc. read more

I have been a customer (reluctant one at best) at this location for years. Not sure why I continue to come here, probably due to it being convenient. The staff here is condescending, rude and indifferent on most of my visits. I've been told the books I want to sell them are junk/garbage - yet they were purchased there for a lot more than the offer. The latest - ordered two booms that were not in stock locally only because the estimated receive by date was over the weekend. Today (Monday) I received notification my order was ready - drove over an hour to find it was not all there (my fault as I should have read the LATE email closer). The person checking me out questioned if I had paid, said "sounds about right" when I asked about the books not being there over the weekend. When I get notified of the 2nd book arriving I will once again make an hour drive to get it, then I will either go to other noon stores or go to the flagship store in Dallas. read more

Sydney was amazing!! I called to find two books in the middle of a series I'm reading on a busy Saturday and Sydney worked diligently to help me find them. They found both books at another location and one at their store, but when they double checked their inventory, they found the second book for me too! I appreciate the time and efficiency they took to help me and now I can finish one of my favorite series in time for the final book!! Thanks Sydney! :) read more

Came here and sold 2 books; they were only worth $2.66 but I don't mind since I just needed to get rid of them. I went to the arts and crafts section and got a book. They have lots of unique books here. Definitely worth a look! The books aren't that cheap though (not the one I got), and when you sell your books, don't expect to make much money. read more

Half Price Books is just one of those bookstores that I walk into and can't walk out empty-handed! They have a huge selection of books to choose from including gifts like journals and even greeting cards. The staff member who rang me up was kind and inquired how my shopping experience was and was a good conversationalist. I'm just thankful I didn't notice the vinyl records until after I had checked out! I'll be back to check those out! Until next time! read more

I LOVE book stores and saw this on my way into town. I knew I had to stop by. They have SOO many books to choose from. I found an Ali Hazelwood book for myself very easily and for a very reasonable price. I also found two cute little books for my kids to take home as souvenirs. While checking out the service person, was so friendly and told me more about the store, and showed me a map. She recommended if I had time to go to the one out in Dallas! I didn't have time, but if you do-- do it read more

I was able to shop and obtain a lot of quality magazines and other periodicals for my annual vision and mood boards for 2024. I'm also happy that HPB was having an additional 20% off customer appreciation sale from 12/26-12/28/23 which helped me substantially. Bomber that they no longer offer carry out bags to their clients as I didn't bring in my own. No worries as I'll I still appreciate the great service and discounts way cheaper than other brick and mortar and online stores any day!!!! So many great finds today but also no year end calendars as well as years prior!!! I just love this store!!! Always something in clearance no matter the genre and the staff is forever pleasant!!! read more

Everyone was super pleasant. They helped me sell my books and movies. And also helped me find new books I was specifically looking for! Will return 100% read more

Disappointed. Tried to sell dozens of tech, real estate, finance and spiritual books here easily worth $700 but they only offered $23 something. Took books home and gonna sell somewhere else and or donate. Staff is friendly though. Store has free WiFi for the wait. Wait time for me to get the sale price was quick; barely 10 mins ish. read more

Brought 20+ books to half price books offered 1.18. Will burn them instead next time.

But she can read, she can read, she can read She can read she's bad... (If you sang that, we can be friends) Anyway, TBH I've been to this shopping center a zillion times and never thought about checking out HFB because I assumed the selection would be bland AF. Wow was I wrong! I saw so much cool stuff! I could've spent tons of time in here looking at books, comics, albums and more, and I really wished I didn't have to be somewhere else within the hour. Lots of signs enforcing social distancing, though it was getting pretty crowded so I wished it was easier to browse. The employees were super friendly, helpful, and all masked up. I did find some rare punk and gothy vinyl in the lock box at low low prices so I decided to take it home, though it was kinda awkward asking for the titles specifically. I guess the moral of the story is don't judge a book (or a store) by its cover. Definitely returning when I have more time. read more

The people that work at Half Price Books are very friendly and helpful. The bookstore has a good amount of books, magazines, and collectibles. The prices are very reasonable. I enjoyed looking through the different genres of books within the store. I recommend the bookstore and look forward to visiting again. read more

I love HFB and all their locations. Always have great and courteous workers with a great selection.

Yet another well-executed HPB. Mellow vibe with good peeps working there and plenty of good and reasonable deals to be found. I love that I can still hunt for music here, and it's always fun to go through their non-sorted mess of $2 clearance CDs. An album worth of music for $2? Yes, please! They're always happy to ship books between locations for free, too. Super handy. read more

The old dude was beyond rude to me 0/10 Very unprofessional and condescending comments towards me All I did was try to sell some stuff and he was acting like I spit in his face If there was another place to sell stuff I would go somewhere else read more

Waited over an hour to sell some books. You don't get much for a book but is better than nothing. We actually spend double on new books. read more

Great customer service. Very helpful and good collection of kids books. The shop was easy to pick any categories of books read more

This is my FAV location. They have great customer service, a big selection, always fully stocked. I come here at least once a week with coupons! I spend at least an hour each time I visit. Great location that's worth a visit! read more

Did you know that Half Price Books doesn't sell books at half price anymore?! That was the principle behind these stores for decades. Now the books have stickers on the front and prices are more than half the original price. Honestly, you can do better buying secondhand books online. read more

I first discovered Half Price books when I moved here over 11 years ago. Why weren't these stores up north????? I was hooked. I can't seem to leave there without an armful of new reading material. They have everything and all sorts of other knick-knacks you might want as well. What's also great is you can sell off your stuff when you are done with it and sometimes, just getting rid of some crap is a good thing. This is a store you can get lost in for HOURS and HOURS. You never know what you will find and you will always find something interesting. Many locations in DFW, many opportunties to lose yourself in a book. read more

I was surprised at the amount of used books! So many to choose from. The majority were in very good condition!

I always find something interesting here! The staff is great when looking for a specific book.

Love this Half Priced Books. This place always has a wider selection than the nearby locations and the books always seem to be in much better shape here. Also, the wonderful cashier with the awesome hair complimented my overall "aesthetic", automatic 5 stars :) read more

The guy working the register yesterday (Heath K) afternoon is a total azzhole!! I've never been treated so rudely at any store anywhere. He acted like my return, within 30 days, was a total hassle for him. Super anger and rude! read more

This rating is for the buying process there. I came in to sell some movies & two Nintendo DS games & all they were going to offer me was $12! Like really when one of my games I was selling them was Pokémon Heart Gold & I saw they sell that game at their store for $85! Like seriously least you can do is offer half that price when I paid $50 for that game when I first got it. So of course I took that game back, wasn't going to lose that game to them when I know they'll probably sell it for more from my offer price. read more

Absolutely love this store! I wish there was an easy way to browse titles before going though. It would be even better if they would link with Goodreads and could just place a pick up or at least where it is in my closest store. The children's section is great and love picking up a book on the way home for my toddler. It's aap a great place to check out toys! read more

My daughter and her 20 year old boyfriend visited this store today. He, a young black man, was job searching. He went in and came out empty handed saying he was told by a middle aged white woman that worked there that "they only hired teens"(after she asked him if he was a teen and he said no). Knowing that this sounded fishy, my daughter went back into the store minutes later and asked for an application (she got one) and then asked if they there were any age requirements and was told that you have to be 18 OR OLDER! I am...wait...used to be a half price fan. I take my son, a young black man, into the store on NWY in Dallas on Saturdays for special events but now I will probably give my money to some other bookstore. Who ever this woman is needs to be reprimanded severely! If she did it to him, I'm sure she's doing it to other young black men looking for HONEST WORK. Shame on you! read more

My new favorite book store. Many different sections with hard to find books. Friendly staff and a comfortable environment. I enjoy the vibes of this place much more than a Barnes & Noble or a Borders. If you are a reader, make sure to make checking out this place a priority! read more

My Lyft driver one time told me he spends a lot of time at Half Priced Books. I was happy to see it is a chain so while I was around Frisco, my sister in law and I went to check it out. She is a bookworm and I pretend to like books. I was pleasantly surprised to see how many books they offer here, and the very cheap prizes they have here! They have fiction, non-fiction, travel, gardening, cookbooks, music, DVDs, BluRays, toys, puzzles and more! A lot of the items are in very good condition, and some are even in brand new condition too! The prices and variety of items are what struck me here. Also the store is very clean and organized. Of course, you can also bring your old books here. They have a dedicated section to do that process. Overall, this is a great place for books and all sorts of media. I'd definitely recommend it! read more

Every time I come to this specific location, I never fail to find something I want to leave with. Their music section is undefeated.

Great books at great prices. Do they always have every book on my reading list, no they don't. But I always find great deals that are worth reading, and that is cool by me. So put down the remote or thumbing your way through facebook for an hour or two. And come on down to any Half Priced books where there is something for everyone. read more

I'm a fan! I equally like this location as much as I do the Lewisville location. However, I do feel like the Frisco store's clearance section is made up of books that are in better condition than the Lewisville location. Most look new! The store is pretty big and well-organized. I really liked that they had a whole section in the middle related to earth-day today! Staff were very nice and approachable. The location is conveniently located next to restaurants and shopping stores. Makes for a perfect stop while shopping around the area. read more

I love this place. Upon walking in the smell of books hits you. YES! Smart phones, tablets, nooks, and all I want to do is read print from dirty pages, I'm old school! The store is large, yet organized, which is more than I can say about other locations. You can find everything from high school "classics" for required reading to college textbooks (a bit outdated). I find great stocking stuffers here, notebooks, and recipe books galore. My one tip would not be to rush your book browsing experience. Stay a while and see what calls your name. I haven't had much luck with finding new releases, but I stay optimistic :) read more

I come here quite often to browse and also sell items. Most things are reasonably priced, but some are just crazy overpriced. Mostly kids movies. For what you pay for used there, you can go to Walmart and get brand new. I just recently discovered the clearance section..never saw it tucked in the back of the store before. You can find some killer deals! Hardcover books that are pretty new, in great condition for $3. Some are even $1. Usually whenever I sell my things there, I get a very small amount. For example, I had 4 college textbooks from this most recent semester .. and they offered me $7 cash for all. I opted to list on Craigslist instead. I also bring in old magazines and get a couple bucks for them. It's fine because it's better than throwing them in the landfill. Will be back again and again. read more

I LOVE Half Price Books! I've been buying books and more for many years. Pay no attention to what some people say in the other reviews posted here. Sure, they don't give top dollar for your used books, but they have a large overhead and have to turn a profit or go out of business! Check them out! I'm sure you'll agree that it's a great place! I do hope you have some time because there's a LOT to look at! read more

I am a fan of this place. The books are cheap, in good condition and the store is laid out well making it easy to find what you want. The employees are also very helpful if you cannot find what you are looking for. The aisles are also large enough that you don't feel cramped when you are looking for something and there are a few other people looking in the same genre. read more

I love this place! This was my first trip to the one in Frisco. I had received a 50% off coupon good for Sunday only via email, and just stopped by to see what I could find. I ended up getting a great $80 Roy Lichtenstein coffee table book for $20. I also picked up some notecards. The girl working the register was very friendly. I asked if I could ring up the items separately so I could use the 1/2 off coupon on the most expensive item. She explained there was no need because they always give it to you off the most expensive item. That caught me by surprise, since most places are so strict on their equal or lesser value rules. I never leave any of their stores empty handed. After discovering Half Price Books during a brief stay in Dallas in '07 I was excited to find that they had two locations in the Phoenix area. I used to drive 30 miles in AZ just to visit a Half Price Books, now that I'm in DFW I don't have to make a long drive but sometimes I do just to check out the different unique locations. I definitely recommend stopping in one of their stores, it's a great place to kill a couple hours. read more

I love this store. The concept overall is that you can buy used books that are in good condition for a fraction of the price, and those wishing to clear off their own bookshelves can come in and get cash for selling the books. Love this. This store in particular, though, is a very good size, with high ceilings so that it feels roomy, The service has always been great - they'll ask if you need help finding things, but also leave you alone to peruse the shelves for your next great read. read more

I came in with ~10 novels to sell and they offered me $3 for all of it LOL..... Ridiculous. Some of them were even like new, having never been read. Also, the guy working the sell-back counter wasn't very friendly. I ended up selling because I wanted to get rid of the items and they'd been sitting in my house for +1 year, but next time I'll just donate them and let a good cause get some use out of them... Also, check prices before you buy! I was browsing while I was waiting for my offer. I wanted to check reviews for a book online, and I saw that on Amazon, a new copy of this book was cheaper than HPB was selling for. read more
