I don't know where to find the stores, but there should be, yeah :/
But, really, I'm not the biggest fan of buying used books. I love knowing every dent and scuff on the book came from me, and when it did and what's the story behind it (as I keep my books very carefully).
So my books are mostly new books :)

Liat (liatbrecher) | 23 comments Oh ok, i know people like that- but it makes for a very expensive habit,no?

Yeah, it's an expensive habit. Luckily for me, I've only two really major buying habits in my life - Books and shoes. Shoes I buy only at sales, so I'm left with books... and my parents pay for those ^.-
I don't live at home so my dad says the money he spends on my books is little in comparison to what he would've spent on me if I were at home (food and all the likes), so he gives me whatever books I really ask for. But I try not to buy too many books, anyway.

I'm joining on in Jon's question because that's always good to know :)

Liat (liatbrecher) | 23 comments Theres Sefer V'sefel in the center of town which sells second hand English books. If you dont want the newest books the rest are pretty cheap and its overall a really cool place.
The Book gallery is another one- that place is crack to people like me. You walk in and it looks smalls, but then you see another room which leads to another and another and another. You could spend hours there...
Theres also Dan books, and some others that friends have told me about that I haven't been to yet..
Those are my favorites, but there are many more that i can't recall right now..
