I went to the actual Half Price Books stores in my area (Seattle, WA).
There are five now -- one in Bellevue, one near the South Center
mall, another in the University District, and still another on 99 in
Lynwood. There's even another in Tacoma, but I haven't been there.
Not sure what other states have these ... but there has to be similar
stores around. Perhaps the bookstores attached to local colleges, if
nothing else.
