Bookmans Mesa Entertainment Exchange

I love Bookmans! I always find such neat stuff here— items that I don’t know where else in the world I would find. Lately, this location has literally been a life-saver. I have multiple clients with developmental disabilities and a trip to Bookmans is just part of our routine to keep everyone happy (especially me). The intense selection of toys and magazines is a home-run every time. I don’t know how I could survive or effectively do my job without you guys. Thanks as always :)

The biggest waste of time! If you are wanting to sell your books do not go here. I took in brand new, unused cookbooks that were very expensive and high-end such as smitten kitchen, the yoga cookbook, several vegan cookbooks, the whole 30 cookbook hardback and so many more and they offered me $11 for 11 brand new books. These 11 books cost around $40 each and I paid around $450 for them. Bookmans offered me 11$! They have absolutely no idea what they are doing. Just don’t even waste your time. Go somewhere else. After being shocked that they offered me $11 for all of these, I asked the person how much they offered for just the yoga kitchen alone since that book is well over $40, in perfect condition, in high demand, and hardback. The person picked up the book and waved it back-and-forth as if determining how much it weighed and didn’t even look at the book before giving me a quote of a dollar. Absolutely ridiculous. They probably didn’t even know what that was.

Great place to go for those finds you cant get anywhere else! As far as trading in goes, I tend to get lower offers on my electronics but overall I have had good experiences despite low offers. Not all books can be traded in so do not be surprised if they wont take some. Prices are generally fair although certain items tend to be higher based off of value or uniqueness! I would say that I go to Bookmans 1-2 times a week and have yet to have a bad experience.

This place is awesome! It's big, it has a wide range of selection from many genres of books, instruments, games, cds, etc. There are also good stores nearby so if you wanted to, for example, you could pick up a book or comic book from Bookmans and then go read it and eat a donut or have lunch. The variety of Bookmans is great, there are so many things to choose from in just one genre. Trades here are also accepted which is wonderful, so you can trade your book in for store credit. The store itself feels very comfortable and it has a nice feel to it. It feels good to just walk around the store and explore. I will definitely return here!

I've never had a poor experience at Bookmans! Their inventory is always rotating and expanding. It's a great place for children of all ages and children at heart. Lots of nerdy items, and if you're looking for something in particular there's always someone willing to help you search stores and find it. Children's Story time is coming back on Tuesdays soon which is super exciting!
