it is a very very beautiful place I could be there all day just looking at books! But went to sell a few books my mom had and the guy was very rude. Like snooty rude ... No one else but us were there and when we were leaving someone came in and he was very nice to them not sure what we did but made me feel like never going back
Badly run, understaffed vanity business from an ebay and online seller. His poor staff try to run a bookstore but the owner is more interested in his kid's softball games than actually running the store. It's a big place and it's stuffed with books, many of which are not even offered for sale because said owner can take more than a year to actually put them out. I've had several meetings with him, in every case his dealings were wrought with the kind of bad ethics and juvenile behavior more akin to a angry grade school bully than a bookstore in beautiful, downtown Lancaster.
Bottom line, his prices are not competitive. Dealing with the owner, who has to approve or do most everything (because he won't give his usually very nice staff the power to do anything) is tedious. You may as well buy online and, ironically, you may end up doing business with him anyway.
Cozy bookstore, larger selection then you would think from the outside, friendly service
I've only been here once so far and I'll make any adjustments as I visit more but this place was amazing! I felt like I stepped into wonderland the moment I crossed the threshold into this blessed place. There were so many books, common and rare, I had no idea where to start. Well start I did and I was not disappointed in the selection or organization of the books. When I had my book and was ready for checkout I received amazing service from the gentleman staffing the checkout counter. Loved it, I'll most certainly be back.
Very helpful and friendly staff. They have an interesting and varied selection of used books at great prices.
I've lived in many cities with genuine book stores and Dogstar is not one of them. It's a pretend place.
