In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan.1.1. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997.
