I'm not kidding, this is the best bookstore in all of NZ. I love a good second hand bookstore, and I've seen a few around the world. This place is isn't massive but EVERY time I come here I find something new and interesting. Best collection of Barry Crump books also. I guess I highly recommend....

Amazing selection of books here but the service is worth way more than 5 stars!! Bruce went out of his way to find a book for me and contacted me in two days to say he had it.

I was looking for a particular book which their website indicated they had. Neither I nor the sales lady in the shop at the time could locate it but she searched everywhere she could think of. Even though I said it didn't matter, the sales person and the the Manager both spent time searching. Finally with success. They could not have been more helpful, friendly and courteous. Five stars!

Incredibly rich and varied selection of titles. Found two beautiful and obscure books for reasonable prices.

Good selection of secondhand books. Got a bit nostalgic when I saw old Select Editions from Reader’s Digest, and Flowers in the Attic by VC Andrews. Bought two books. Didn’t catch the opening hours, but we were there on a Friday and it closed at 5pm.

We show up to five recent Google reviews, newest first and as written. We leave out reviews under three stars, but the Google rating above includes every review.
