If five crowded floors and eighteen miles of dusty volumes leave you feeling beleaguered, the Strand Annex offers the same sweeping discounts in a downsized, less intimidating environment. The things that make Strand indispensable are preserved: fashionable new fiction, memoirs of the hot political entities of the day, and classics at what amounts to bulk rate prices. The trade-off is that there are only half as many books on a single sprawling floor and the art section—a strength of the original Strand location—is devoid of anything new or rare. But the small staff is unhurried and able to help you find the things that make this outpost unique: There’s a solid New York City section and a shrine-like table offering the entire Hemingway and Fitzgerald canons in paperback—all between 50 and 60 percent off, of course. — Ben Perkins

NEIL, was the rudest to me a store employee--in ANY store--has ever been to me. NEIL had a huge pile of my sell-back books he wouldn't take & I inquired how he was making his decisions. They were hard covers; paperbacks were of good quality as well. NEIL snapped this was his job & he knew how to do it. He continued to rant about how he didn't have to take my books if he didn't want to and that I had no idea how to do his job. I let him know he was being quite rude to me for no reason when all I had done was ask a honest question. Every time I've sold books here, it's never been like this. I told NEIL I would let all of my friends know how poor the customer service is here. NEIL replied that he can say whatever he wants and he doesn't care what I think and that I probably didn't have any friends. Even a co-worker reprimanded him for that and said sharply, "NEIL!" Avoid this place and the rude staff.
