Being a small store, it's very easy to find a book, that is if they have it in stock. They do have a wide variety of books but not a very large quantity of each book. Golden West Books has many of the somewhat obscure Chinese books that can't be found elsewhere. They do have the ability to order books. Book condition is rarely mint as most books may have a few minor creases or tears. I wouldn't bother asking the staff for recommendations and would rather have the book you're looking for in your mind before you enter. Prices are very good. Parking is mediocre as they are forced to share a rather tiny lot with several other businesses.
