Good luck! If I’m ever Thereford I’ll probably forget about thisford but might pop in regardless.
Congratulations!
Have you got a shelf with 20 copies of The Da Vinci Code and Fifty Shades of Grey yet?
Congratulations. Also; love Simon Scarrow’s books.
I’ve always had a dream of having a second hand bookshop that’s also a mini coffee shop/library so people can sit and read, have a snack or a drink and don’t always have to buy. It would be open late sometimes too so people can come and have a hot chocolate and a quiet read on a dark winters evening..
Anyway.. congratulations on your achievement. If you want to do the cafe/late night library thing that’s cool with me
Do you only accept leather bound pounds?
So happy for you , all the best !
Congratulations! I hope you do well for yourself.
Congratulations… Really hope that it takes off for you
Congratulations.
How do you know how much to offer to buy and sell?
Love the smell of old books, bloody good luck fella.
Oh my goodness what an absolute dream- I’m so jealous!
You need the no sign from black books up. No wigwams. No snoity car. None of that, or any of the others.
Be honest….
Do you go through the donated books and have “first dibbs” on the cool ones and read them before they go on the shelves?
I’d like to think that any bibliophile would do that 😆
2nd hand bookshops make money buying books not selling them. Also don’t take in loads and loads of junk books as it’s just more for you to handle/lose money on.
You can do local bootfiars on Sunday mornings to dump all the children’s books cheap.
Good luck.
In the Butter Market?
I’m so jealous! This is one of my dreams. I’d end up like Bernard in Black Books I fear.
Looks like you’re in the Butter Market. I’ll come and browse next time I visit.
Good for you.
Do hurricanes hardly ever happen there?
Congrats – are you eating scrambled eggs with a comb from a shoe yet?
My dream was to be a pilot.
I’m not a pilot. I hate my job.
Enjoy your dream; I will live vicariously through you.
Congrats 🥰
Where in Hereford?
Good to see a real bookshop 🙃🖖
How much does opening a second hand bookshop set you back?
Well don! Congrats. My wife’s dream is a second-hand book shop come wine bar come coffee shop come somewhere mum’s can take kids and chill ha.
Congratulations and very good luck! I really hope we start to see a trend back to independent bookshops.
Are u hiring? 😛
My Mum has a bookshop, sells new and second hand and it’s her passion. Good luck to you!
Good for you.
Congratulations, but give us some more photos. Let’s see the place and where it is.
80% genuine question, 20% rhetorical: how important is it for all your bookshelves to be in alphabetical order? Maybe people aren’t that bothered and just like to browse at random, but I’d have thought you’d at least want all the books by the same author adjacent to each other.
I have about 70 mint paperbacks if you would like them?

Congrats! Love a good second-hand bookshop – nothing beats it 😌
Hope you start building yourself a nice set of regulars, and good luck 💖
I wish you every success, Hereford is a lovely city and we need more second-hand bookshops!
Wow congrats – this is my wife’s dream! Hope it goes well.
My dream is to have a 2nd hand bookshop & serve coffee in there.
Congratulations and good luck!
I wanted to open up my own book shop focusing on sci-fi, fantasy and genre fiction at one point.
I wanted a big neon sign to go in the window saying “Books, books, books’.
I like the Simon scarrow books
When you enter every morning you have to say quietly to yourself ‘Bookmasters’ in the style of ‘Popmaster’.
that’s wonderful! best of luck, love a good bookshop
