One of the cheapest prices in town. 8/19/2005

I had to get myself a copy of Cliff Notes, and although they didn't have what I was looking for, there were plenty of other deals. There's not a lot of staff there, such as at larger commercial bookstores, however if your willing to dig through the massive number of books, then you may find yourself a great deal or two. Parking is a pain, but if your coming by public transportation, the number 2 stops right in front of the store. more

Cheap books 8/17/2005

I love coming to Green Apple for bargain books! It's one of my favorite bookstores in San Francisco. If I need to find a novel for a class, I usually check here because the prices are way cheaper than what I would find in a school book store. They have a huge selection of books, and it's fun to look through all the sections. more

Take a bite out of big chain stores 8/17/2005

Once when I went to buy a book at Borders, when I found out the price, I told the cashier I may have to look for a the book at Green Apple. He exclaimed that it was a good idea and that he loved the place too. Green Apple Books is your quintessential neighborhood book store. They carry lots of hard to find books, have a good selection of used books, and have a literate staff who make recommendations and are very helpful. Don't forget to check out the annex, where the periodicals, fiction, movies, and music are located. more

green apple review 8/9/2005

this place is heaven for the book indulger. they have used books of all kinds, all for bottom bottom dollar. their prices are great, their selection is great, but don't go there looking for a specific title cuz you'll have a helluva a time finding it. but it's the best used book store in town to browse and buy half a dozen books for a few bucks. what a great deal, a great way to spend the afternoon. more

Green APple Books 8/6/2005

This bookstore has a lot of cheap buys. This is a smaller bookstore so it has more books that other chainstore bookstores dont have. It is easy to find books that are un-biased and ones with interesting political views. Usually students come here to find books on historical figures. You can also sell your books here too. Great place to hang out and just read books. more

Great Local Bookstore 8/5/2005

Pretty much a local institution, Green Apple Books has been operating in San Francisco for over 38 years. They buy, sell, and trade new and used books, CDs, and DVDs and they offer a carefully chosen selection of new and used books. You can even do a search online for used books. They also have a wide selection of magazines. Prices are reasonable. Good place to find rare book and collectibles. more

5 stars!! 7/27/2005

This is one of my all time favorite bookstores in San Francisco. You can find almost any book in this store, no matter how old. They are also great for buying used textbooks at more affordable prices than University bookstores. Also they buy back alot of used books for better values than some other places. I highly recommend this bookstore. The only downfall is trying to find a parking spot more

Great Book Store to get lost in 7/27/2005

I love this book store. It carries everything from the best sellers to the obscure and out of print. I managed to locate a first edition Roald Dahl book here as a gift, that I had problems finding online. The staff are helpfull and really know what they are doing, and if they cannot find the book you are looking for they are quick to offer alternatives and offer personal reccomendations. It's a candy store for book lovers. more
