With approximately 20,000 books and 12,000 vinyl records, this tiny buy-and-sell shop is true to the handmade sign in its window: “Bigger than it looks.” Amid the jumble sale decor, bargain hunters can pick up everything from 95-cent paperback potboilers to hardcover fiction starting at $4. There’s also a large selection for the tender-hearted in a buy-two-get-one-free Harlequin rack. For mood music, try Barbra Streisand and Barry Gibb’s duet album, Guilty, for a guilt-free $3, or New Age, pop or classical CDs starting at $5.99. DVDs range in price from $4.99 to $9.99.
Hours:
M–F 11–7, Sa 11–6, Su 11–5.
