About this seller
Since 1981, Time Tested Books has provided the Sacramento area with quality second-hand and new books. We have an excellent selection of books, with tens of thousands of volumes on our shelves. In the 1990s, we added a small vinyl record section, where many excellent and obscure records can be found. Two thousand seven saw Time Tested move into a newly-renovated space next door. The move has allowed us to do literary and musical events, as well as lectures and book signings. Our stock ranges from very low-priced reading copies to rare collectibles. We deal with both hardcovers and paperbacks. We also special-order new books. While our strengths are in history, literature, political science, philosophy, biography, and social sciences, we have an excellent selection of drama, art & film history, children's books (including older children's series), mystery, poetry, science fiction, sports, and science. We buy books and records for cash or trade credit. We are proud to be a locally-owned, independent bookstore with a knowledgeable and friendly staff. Please enjoy browsing our listings. And stop by the store when you're in Sacramento!
