Secondhand Bookshops (Locations)

Now that we have lost over the last couple of years ( Thai4life, Secondhand Books and now Star Books) does anybody know of any other bookshops that are still operating. I know about Canterbury Tales but I find it a nightmare trying to find a book with there almost nonexistent cataloging system.

After nearly a month I take it that Canterbury Tales is the only secondhand book shop in Pattaya.

It wouldn't be so bad if the level of lighting was higher and they got rid of surplus books. The other day I counted 13 copies of James Patterson 'Sail'. They are never going to sell that many copies so why don't they dump them (or sell at a much reduced price to get rid of them) to leave space for other books and make searching for them much easier to find.

Get a Kindle or a Nook, I swear you'll never look back. I got sick of the poor selection and the greedy overpricing in Pattaya's bookshops and invested in a Nook for around $100, now I chose from thousands of free books.

They aren't trying to sell you books... in case you were wondering.?

What ??? I'm ensuring the member who asked about books knows he's in the right place.....if your face is as red as that I suggest you get some ladies foundation powder to tone it down
