The Savers at Greensborough (near station) usually has a pretty good selection - I’ve found some gems there. Like a 1st edition of Modesitt’s Fall of Angels. Salvos and Brotherhood and Vinnies also does 2nd hand books. Alice’s in Rathdowne St Carlton is niche, and pretty exxy. The absolute best is Craddocks in Collins St in the city - huge range but exxy plus. Glorious shop though - worth a visit even if you don’t buy.

Savers is still open there? That’s a blast from the past.

I thought Savers was a Melbourne thing. I didn’t realize they used to exist elsewhere.

There is another one in Brunswick, which is a lot closer to town.
