    Half Price Books in same shopping center as Charming Charlies
    Michelle J.

    Well that was embarrassing. I'm moving soon so I decided it was a great time to downsize my bookcase to make room for future books. So I carried in like a thousand books (exaggerating by a lot) in blazing Texas summer heat (not exaggerating at all) to be offered $1.00. Next time I will just donate my books somewhere or add to a garage sale. Anyways this location is quite a bit smaller than the 2 locations on Preston Road. They also aren't as friendly as the Preston locations. For real. I'm not just pouting or trying to shade them because of my dollar.

    Half Price Books is freaking amazing!! I have been a customer of this place since 1997, and purchased almost every book I've ever owned here. They even have some college text books of older editions. I was an art major for UNT in the early two-thousands, and saw a fifth edition art history book for college coursework!!!

    loved their selection of romances and got so many gems, especially in the clearance section! highly recommend this location for other romance lovers!

    Books as far as you can see, this is one tenth of the aisles.

The original invoice stated that the order would be ready around March 10th. Since today is March 9th, my parents attempted to call the store to follow up. Oddly, someone answered then hung up on them without saying "Hello" or "Please excuse us". This happened 3 times! On the fourth try, the employee on the other line just yelled at my dad! The voice was female, and they were literally yelling loud enough for all of us to hear that our order is not ready. My dad took a deep breath and calmly asked, "Excuse me, but we haven't given you our names or the order number yet." They responded, "Oh, I know. You're calling for [random person's name]." Then we asked, "How would you be able to know? We still haven't given our name or order, plus we never used this phone number to call the store or have it on the invoice." They then snapped, "It doesn't matter. Your order is not ready to pick up." We then requested to cancel our order, and she went ballistic! This employee continued to yell while we remained quiet and calm. Luckily for us, we confirmed that this rude employee was Michelle. We then called our credit card company and explained our situation. They were able to give us a credit equal to the refund, and they let us know that this store is legally obligated to give us a full refund. They also let us know that it is our right to pick up the item anyway since we paid in full. Since we were in the area, we decided to pay a visit. When the employees in the front had a minute, we explained our situation. They immediately called the management, and the store manager sympathized with us. They got with the department manager, and this person was visibly irritated with us. Luckily, the store manager was still with us, so they begrudgingly gave us a full refund. Although we were able to nick this issue in the bud, we do not recommend purchasing from the frame section of this store - or at the very least when Michelle is working. It is sad to state the obvious - don't take your stress out on other people!

They sell…read morepractically anything you could ever want or need for the purposes of creating, decorating, and gifting. Whenever I go, there's a good chance I'll find exactly what I'm looking for and an even better chance of serendipitously stumbling upon something that I didn't know I needed. They have a wide selection of seasonal merchandise throughout the year with the holidays being their specialty. Be sure to shop extra early for Christmas decor. Zealous shoppers will have the place ravaged and cleaned out well before the "Happy Fall Y'all" signs have hit other stores' shelves. The Lewisville location is not as well kept as some of the other ones in the area. Plus, the lines are consistently long and slow moving to reach gruff employees at the registers. Evidently, that doesn't deter customers since they have outlived Joann's across the parking lot and continue to thrive with a Michael's a couple doors down. More impressively, they've managed to do it despite the fact that they're closed on Sundays. As a mecca for all things arts and crafts related, they take full advantage by charging top dollar for their goods. Therefore, it's not economical to shop outside of sales and/or without coupons.

    I've been going to this location for about 5 years now and they have been so sweet, friendly,…read morehelpful. There was a time I brought in my son and he got upset and one of the managers cheered him up and gave him a sticker. This location is clean, they keep on top of their products and the staff is kind. This is probably one of my favorite locations in the area.
