Massive Bookstore Sells Hundreds Of Rare And Expensive Books
I have a lot of expensive books. They are called college textbooks!
You're Fuckin' HilaRious
Aye
atleast you'll learn a lot and that is for only for you.
Haha same
Except when you try to resell it it'll be practically useless.
Proceeds to to open the book worth thousands awkwardly and twists the pages...
Joshua GC Wong you can hear the spine crack.....🤦🏻♂️
*flips
It's all a bs performance
I think they said "rare and expensive books"

My friend would think this place is the best thing ever
Because it is
Yes, it definitely is
Absolutely It is the best place ever
Preach it^^^
Definitely the best place ever.
It’s heaven. I must go one day. I must.
It's in San Francisco or San Diego
Oh Gods, that’s so far. I’m in England.

Imagine how the firefighters from Fahrenheit 451 would react to this place

If you're shopping for books there, you gotta be careful (in the upstairs area). Lots of people go there not to shop, but to take pictures at those spots. The people posing for pics often get snotty at those whose shopping interferes with their tourism.
I have a huge library too filled with books written by my family of how great we are

@@gabrielperez1199 criminally underrated comment!🔥🔥🤣🤣🤣🤣
I live in LA, and have been to this store many times. Love the selection and the people there are damned helpful as well.
I used to live in Detroit, we had a place very similar to this, called the "John K. King Used and Rare Books" downtown.
Thank you for this was looking for something like this near me
I would love to go there! I love reading🍯💛
edit: wtf is this comment bye-

@@johntitor1054 It will help if you're using it wisely, but your using it for addiction.
I’ve been here and it’s truly the coolest bookstore I’ve ever been to. I really enjoyed seeing all of the amazing architecture and design work. Super cool experience

Scratch that, she has the beast’s library to content herself with.
Layla D *you’re
You're not alone 😂
I collect old books. My oldest is from the 1850s. I need to go here _now_ .
Read what you love, new or old, it doesn’t matter as long as you’re happy! I don’t have much time for reading anymore, but the history of the books still amazes me.
Investment? It's all about what that piece means to you. YOU put the value on it, no one else does.
Whoa, what a paradise.

Cute and tiny bookstore relative to stores such as Powell’s and The Strand.

All the other content brought by someone else than Sydney
usually are very commercial and predictable,
yet things introduced by Sydney are pretty friendly to
ppl looking for things that are not like instagram posts
This is my local bookstore. If you’re going to come and get in my way for your instagram shot, at least buy something to support the local business.
I mean, exposing it to the people who never knew about the place is way more support than just buying one book.
Stfu w your gentrifying ass. Cause I bet you’re one of those white guys who just recently bought a loft in dtla and who would’ve never been caught dead on spring st 5 years ago 😂 talking bout “my local bookstore” YOU’RE just like them
Stfu
I had a photoshoot here and came back the next day and bought a big stack of books! Amazing store! :D
@@justandrei1939
🙄🙄🙄 Not if everyone is ONLY taking pictures for their Instagram which is what they do, people who see these places on Instagram don’t go there to buy book they go to say they’ve been there, so if they only have visitors who don’t make purchases they don’t make money.🙄🙄🙄
But do they have a first edition of The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter? I think not...
This deserves more likes
Easy easy.. I believe you, these books are rare. Stop opening them like Sunday’s paper. Sheesh..
The oldest book I own is Geman hymn book printed in 1866 . When I purchased it , inside was a death certificate of a gentleman born in March 1835 , died in 1874 . The signing on the inside is Quill Inked in German . This was an heirloom for some family as I think the death certificate was handed down & placed in this book .
Interesting! Where did you get it?
@@Fairyfloss0721 I found it a thrift store for 4.99 . I've had it for about 30 years now . I never removed the death certificate from the page where it was found . Perhaps that was a hymn that was sang at his funneral . It's someone's heirloom , it would be nice to return it to it's rightful family owner . I just keep putting it off .
I've been here a thousand times and I've never heard about the rare and expensive books. Everybody mostly comes here because it's a really cool funky space with lots of interesting artwork and atmosphere. That's what it mostly know for in the communities around where its built.
This place needs to be protected at all cost..
Don’t you ever wish
“I wish I had written that comment”👏
This book store is so awesome!! They have awesome art always new too, and so many books!
They have many thousands of books, but I can give them a run for the title (no pun intended), having two houses and their garages packed with important nonfiction that ripens to become classical rather than dated. And it's not for sale, my daughter will also make good use of it.
I've been here a handful of times, it's great! They also have like a "vault" type room and a bunch of little artist shops and artwork upstairs. One potential downside is that they don't have AC (but plenty of fans) so keep that in mind before venturing inside during a heatwave! It's also a short walk away from Clifton's Cafeteria...yum.
Thats kinda shocking w/ a rare book collection. How do they prevent rot without controlling humidity & temp (especially when we’re suffering santa ana or fire season)?!
The Last Bookstore in LA. Adding to my list✔️
I
Wanna
Go
There
Right now
I used to love this place back in the day when the whole top floor was 1 dollar. I would spend hours browsing through books looking for interesting ones. Then it blew up and is now usually packed full of people who only go there for the pics and they severely minimized the dollar section so it's honestly not that great anymore.
That's true. I've been there 2 times. Both times it was packed and you see so many people leaving the store without buying anything. They only go to take IG pictures that's weird and sad AF 😂
I wish the background music didn't play nonstop.
They sold me my college books
This is awesome! Hello from SINGAPORE 🇸🇬 😊
Got a first edition copy of the Iliad? Maybe one that’s signed?
Another place to add to the Bucket List!!
Haha I JUST uploaded the video about this bookstore on my channel
I’m just wondering if they have any of the books that were stolen from the Pittsburgh area rare book collection. Some are worth tens of thousands of dollars and the person that was in charge of looking out for them is the one who stole them as sold them to a book dealer in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania who then in turn sold them to others. Just to be clear I’m not accusing anyone I’m just asking a question, if I owned that bookstore I would want to know is it possible I have anything in my possession that was stolen.
I have a first edition Matilda hardback(amazing condition). Its worth like £450-£500
Honestly reminds me of A.Z. Fell & Co
Damn all these books, All these books, YET YOU STILL LEFT ME ON READ
Love seeing them talk about kerouac
I would love to go!!! I'm also wondering how this would compare to Powell's in Oregon in size(Like square feet).
Edit: I think this one is 22,000 square feet while Powell's is 68,000.
Gonna go check it out this weekend, hopefully the hours and social distancing aspects don't make it impossible to actually go in a peruse
One time I visited a similar store in Florida. Picked up three books and almost went to checkout when I realized they were $50-80 each
Princess Belle is quaking somewhere in DisneyWorld.
The real question is where's the enchantment table?
*THATS MY DREAM I GO TO THE LIBRARY AND READ EVERYDAY AND I WANNA GO THERE*
Omg I went there it's in San Diego or something
There are floating books near the stairs
Phu Huynh - James Potter PS (1517) That’s sounds more magical than the Hogwarts library!
Ive been here before! Its honestly so amazing.
Ever since i acquired a first edition about the Titannic's maiden voyage including a full written copy of the log and passenger and crew manifest old books have fascinated me.
Collect things that you love. I found a lot of amazing books at this place.
If you are ever in NYC the rare book room at the Strand :)
It The Strand is a analogous version of this store. "18 miles of books"
Have fond memories of my visit to this bookstore.
My friend went there one time! Totally jealous of her lol
But do they have _The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter?!_ I think not.
There’s a Waterstones in London with about 5 floors.
Cool. My father knew Kerouac in Lowell. Loved the store.
Am I the only one picturing the guy from Netflix's YOU here.
😍😍😍 Literal heaven for bibliophiles.
The Last Bookstore is honestly really cool and nice
Time to head to LA boys!
I LOVE BOOKS!!
Went there when I was in LA in July, it was so cool!
My favorite bookstore 💜 Skylight is another great bookstore in LA.
Haha I JUST uploaded the video about this bookstore on my channel
The music sound is too loud, it's hard to hear what they saying.
Great vid. Would spend a whole day in this place.
“Ok I want an original Gutenberg bible” bet ya 20 bucks you don’t have that
Take a shot everytime that say "Rare and Expensive Books"
Id love to go there for all the classics
23’ grads : dO tHey SeLl hYdrOfLasKs
take a shot every time they say "rare" and "expensive"
this place is really fun to get lost in ✨
So this is what heaven looks like!
Aziraphale????
Aziraphale? Shooked
Watched this video just to see who would be the first one to make the connection lol. But at the same time this isn't Aziraphale because we all know he would never actually sell any of his books.
Isabella Campins “Aziraphale collected books. If he were totally honest with himself he would have to have admitted that his bookshop was simply somewhere to store them. He was not unusual in this. In order to maintain his cover as a typical second-hand book seller, he used every means short of actual physical violence to prevent customers from making a purchase. Unpleasant damp smells, glowering looks, erratic opening hours - he was incredibly good at it.”
― Terry Pratchett, Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch
Nice.
I’m here, a few minutes late I think but still here
Hi, I’d loved your video but I really love your glasses frames, could you tell me where you got them from?
This looks like heaven to me and i rarely read physical books
Why are bookstores always so comfy
I would love this but the giant elephant head is horrifying. Taxidermy is my phobia.
These books are great and amazing!
Thought this would be about the Strand when I clicked. Haven't been to The Last Bookstore yet.
when your first and dont know what to say...
That is heaven to me
So many selfies, so many vloggers there just like this girl. Any time of the day you see them on the second floor. They march in, act cute with the books, do their photoshoot, then dump the books and march right out again. 🤬
I have several college textbooks in the $300 - $700 range. 😞 resale value nearly nonexistent.
It’s heaven 😍
Knowledge = Power
i cant read
looks cozy but imagine if it catches on fire
Well there are more expensive books around then in this store and I'm not talking about a Gutenberg Bible. Like Sotheby's sold a P.G.Wodehouse pocket book for almost 7.000 GBP. Also in Europe you will find rare bookshops which exceed the prices of this shop easily (not that I am able to afford these books, but I wanted to set things right. Not everything is bigger in the US not even the used book prices)
Strand Book Store in NYC, is just like this but prices go wayyyyyy up.
Am I the only bookworm who doesn't really care if the book I'm reading is a first edition? It's about quality not rarity.
Kids in 10059:
Screen teacher(or whatever we’ll have):”now,kids,today,we will be learning about a thing called,a book!”
Them:”what’s a book?”
Me:
Eh
I use to be a regular there until the tourists took over. Instagram crowded this place, so I can’t enjoy it the way I use to.
For me this book shop is heaven personified. Why can't Australian book stores, if there's any left, cater for the intellectual reader. Is it any wonder we go online to buy our books. Australian book shops only cater for the commercial off the street reader. But for those like me who seek intellectual literature well where just not chance or choice than to do our book shopping online, l wish it wasn't so.
I've been to this gem, it's worth a plane ride👌🏾👌🏾😇
Me :Ok what if I take one of the book in the arrangement
(All books are fallen)
Also : omg
