I have seen other used book stores, but sort of random ones in my neighborhood (the Moncloa area). In many barrios I think you'll find very small used bookstores, so it's probably worth it to spend some time exploring. Also, on loquo.com there seems to be somewhat of a market for used book buyers/sellers: http://madrid.loquo.com/cs/compra-venta/libros-revistas/412 Good luck! Hi Alan,

In the USA I'd go to charity shops and used book stores....where do Madrilenos get their books? They can't welcome paying 20 euros for current fiction books! Surely there is a vibrant used book market for Spanish language books? Where?
