While McIntyre and Moore may not boast as many titles as Widener, it's much easier to browse and navigate through this crowded used bookstore's 85,000 books organized by 300 subject areas. Specializing in books which are out-of-print and generally scholarly in their subject matter (although there is a small fiction and literature section), most books are in excellent condition and sell for half the list price or less. Bookworms will delight in special “foot” deals—10% off a foot of books, 15% off 2ft., 20% off 3ft—and a Frequent Buyer Card that gives you 10% off your next purchase for every $100 spent. McIntyre and Moore also buys books of all types (but no textbooks, and call before bringing in your collection for evaluation) for 17-25% the expected sale price, which for most is about $5-9.
