MacLeod's Books

I went to Macleod’s Books to sell some of my collection. They have an incredible store with lots to choose from! The store was busy, the staff were busy, but I was greeted and dealt with quickly and respectfully! I got a fair price for my books and the ones that they didn’t buy, they said it’s because they won’t sell well. I highly recommend Macleod’s Book for buying or selling!

Great traditional style second hand bookstore! It's wonderful to see these places still survive. Located very conveniently downtown. Filled to the rafters with tons of books - intellectual, arcane, and popular all mixed together. Place where a bibliophile can lose themselves for hours!

THE best book store in Vancouver! A bibliophile's dream. High wooden shelves. Stacks of books everywhere. Old world book store. The smell of old books... paradise!

Changing my review from 4 to 2 stars. I want to love this place because it looks like a bibliophile's dream. It has everything you could want, smells like old musty books, and looks like an avalanche of books could fall on you at a moment's notice which is a huge part of its charm. I love this! But... The man who was working there - I'm not sure if he's the owner or not - was rather abrupt the first time I was there which was fine - the only friends I was looking for were the literary kind. But on this round, he was speaking with a very kind man with a rather rude, dismissive, and frankly borderline offensive demeanour. The other man, despite this, remained friendly. But my fiancé and I were rather upset by this. I have a modest collection of about 2000 books and am constantly adding to it. I'm disappointed that I can't, in good conscience, add this place to my rather small roster.
