I only recall going into The Five Points Bookshop<\/i> a couple of times, probably in the 90s. In truth, that says more about me and the times than the shop which I recall as being perfectly OK. It's just that since a) I got a decent job and b) I can shop online, I spend a lot less time in used bookstores. It used to be the case that I would spend hours going through every SF book in The Paperback Exchange<\/a>, George's Book Exchange<\/a> or The Book Dispensary<\/a>. Even only family trips, I had used bookstores along the way or in relative's towns I liked to pore through. Those were the days when you never know what<\/i> you would find as opposed to now when you can probably find an $0.05 used copy on Amazon.<\/p>\n

I see that today (Saturday 3 March 2012) they are having a garage sale for the rest of the fixtures, so if you are in the area and need some shelving (or maybe a stuffed dog) now would be the time to go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[26,123,808,4],"class_list":["post-5311","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","tag-books","tag-five-points","tag-santee-avenue","tag-stores"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/columbiaclosings.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5311","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/columbiaclosings.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/columbiaclosings.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/columbiaclosings.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/columbiaclosings.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5311"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/columbiaclosings.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5311\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/columbiaclosings.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5311"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/columbiaclosings.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5311"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/columbiaclosings.com\/wordpress\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5311"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
