Excellent store! This has a great Western section that I love coming back to again and again. Bob is always amazing to us!
If you are a book lover, you have to check this place out. I can’t stress this enough as this is the neatest bookstore I have ever been to. The prices are very reasonable and the guy I spoke with at the counter is knows his stuff! The other interesting thing here are, world GLOBES! On several of the bookcases you will find world globes. I remember seeing these all the time I was a child.
Such an awesome store. You won’t be sorry you stopped in.
Fantastic store! My kids love going here. This is a warm, friendly environment and I’m glad we have this store to go to. Hats off to Bob!
Went in for the first time not knowimg what to expect…..spent 40 dollars on books in a matter of minutes. Love yhe selection
Found some rare books I was looking for at a great price. Love to buy and sell there.
This is a gem!! I got 17 books for $44 and half of them were hardback. The owner is so nice and welcoming! Whenever I’m in joplin, stopping here is a must!!
Great selection on books! This is my go to store for books.
I have traveled to many book stores in many states and of all varieties of types and no matter what none of them can compare to Always Buying Books. The selection they have exceeds even the larger stores options. Between the new and used options the prices are always competitive. They give you an amazing offer on any books they are able to accept and are always absolutely amazing to work with. I absolutely love the #booktok room and Ameila is extremely knowledgeable on everything in there. The option to be apart of the discord group and get first look and dibs on new books in the store or to request a book to be ordered just for you is probably the best thing I’ve ever seen a store offer. When looking at my book case I can honestly say 90% of it is from ABB. And thats saying something when I have over 600 books. Bob has probably the best crew and all are irreplaceable. But make sure to talk to Alyse shes the real boss 🤣
