The Scene
Four floors of edifying delights await browsers. The endless shelves at Moe's are packed to the rafters, spanning the alphabet of literature and encompassing writers both world-famous and obscure. The guys at the front… Read Full Editorial

Great second hand books by Brandon K via Insider Pages on 10/8/2007

This place reminds me of similar old book stores in Paris and London. It just has a cool vibe. They buy books at a fair price and you can definitely pickup good paperbacks for cheap. It's a great place to get cool coffee table books. …

Berkeley institution by lillyq via Citysearch on 9/1/2007

One of those old Berkeley businesses with friendly people and an eclectic selection. Right on Telegraph near Aomeba. I recommend it for the total Berkeley experience.

Big, and sometimes confusing by Dani N. via Judy's Book on 6/8/2006

I've had good customer service here, and I love their new book section and the great deals in there. I love their kids' books, and their humor, and their cookbooks, and all the books I would never have thought to look at. What confuses me…

Moe's Books by Sidney M. via Judy's Book on 4/14/2006

Four floors of used books? It's simply wonderful. Moe's in Berkeley has a huge selection of all types of books with the kind of employees that make scrounging in a bookstore all the more enjoyable. It's easy to get overwhelmed in the sheer…

Moe's Books on Telegraph by Jon T. via Judy's Book on 3/29/2006

Moe's Books has to be my favorite used book store in Berkeley. It's 4 floors with so many books, I could and do spend hours there just browsing. Even if you're not looking for anything old or out of print (which they carry a lot of), you…

Tons of used books, but hard to find what you want by Dora W. via Judy's Book on 3/23/2006

Moe's books has probably the largest collection of used books in Berkeley. I think that's great but its difficult to find a specific book and the people who work there talk to you like you're some annoying pest. I love getting deals on…

Moe's Books by Bonnie C. via Judy's Book on 1/4/2006

Moe's Books is located three blocks away from the UC Berkeley campus and it is next to a yummy bakery and a flower shop. It is a two story bookstore and they sell a lot of different kinds of books. They also have a huge selection of…

Excellent by Jason T. via Judy's Book on 11/29/2005

I've purchased quite a few textbooks here. Those the prices at all the local textbook stores are relatively the same, the customer service here to me is superior. They are quick to correct their mistakes and eager to help any student…

My own personal library by Julia A via Insider Pages on 11/12/2005

Moe's is a Berkeley landmark. Cody's is flashier, Barnes and Noble is bigger, but Moe's has everything you want, the lowest price, great staff, and a great trade policy. Cody's is where you go when you need a nice coffee table book for…

Moe's Books by Michael S via Insider Pages on 11/1/2005

Moes Books is very easy to spot with their large red and white striped awning right above their storefront entrance. They have a huge collection of new books as well as a huge collection of used books and books that are no longer in…

so many books!!! by Jason T via Insider Pages on 9/20/2005

This is my favorite bookstore in Berkeley. Possessing such a wide variety of books, in my opinion, this store has everything that one could ever ask for and at a better price than large chain bookstores. The only problem may be finding…

Need a hard to find book? They probably have it at Moe's! by Melanie P. via Judy's Book on 8/16/2005

Moe's Bookstore is a Berkeley landmark. They have been in business for over forty years and they are still going strong.Located on Telegraph Avenue in Berkeley, Moe's is an independent bookseller which specializes in rare, out of print,…

I think it might actually be endless by Deborah S. via Judy's Book on 8/4/2005

I've been in Moe's Books on NUMEROUS occasions, and I still get the feeling that I've never seen it all. That may be because I always get distracted by the great titles and bargains, but it may be because it is actually endless.There's a…

A warehouse of a bookstore by Camille P via Insider Pages on 8/2/2005

For a (primarily) used book store, Moe's is huge, with four levels of carefully classified volumes. It's a fun place to go for the sheer number of things they have. The fact that it's right near the Berkeley campus means that it gets a…

Large variety of mostly used books by Andy F via Insider Pages on 7/20/2005

Four floors of books. Some new and discounted books are on the lower floors, but just about everything else is used. Fiction (and most non-fiction) is half the cover price; if you can find an early printing, you can get some titles for…

Venerable Berkely institution by Stephen M via Insider Pages on 7/10/2005

Moe's has a lot of books, comparably priced to the used books at Black Oaks beyond the other side of the UCB campus and to Green Apple in San Francisco. Moe's is more likely to have a specialist academic title than any other Bay Area…

Used and huge by Marcus H via Insider Pages on 6/29/2005

So it's disorganized. So the sales staff is less than helpful. So what? If you can find it, the book you're looking for in order to finish that paper or complete that collection is in here somewhere. And it's probably cheaper than you…

Moes is a wonderful book store with numerous antique books by Lucinda T via Insider Pages on 6/5/2005

Not only is this a large, several storied book store with almost any book you can think of but they have a good selection of old books. They buy used and put the excellent older ones aside for special consideration. However, one can find…

My Favorite Bookstore by Ajna R via Insider Pages on 5/26/2005

Moe's is a fantastic place to hang out, buy new mainstream or more indie books, or just gawk at the amazing selection of used books. Their discount sections are great and their new books section is huge. Moe's is sometimes overlooked…

The best by Jason S via Insider Pages on 4/12/2005

Moe's definitely has style. It's not a giant book dealer, but a good enough one for your average consumer. It has large selections of pretty much everything you need. They have computer database system to help you find anything. Very…
