Unique and Inclusive: Nickles Used Books and More Expands in Broken Arrow
Introducing a new facet to the used book genre, Nickles Used Books and More — scheduled to open its new, larger location at 816 S. Aspen Ave. in Broken Arrow on Nov. 2 — aims to revolutionize the way the community shops local. Unlike traditional used book shops, Nickles is adding a breath of fresh air with its buy/sell/trade model.
Robbie Nickles, co-owner alongside his wife Sara, shares that their unique inventory includes puzzles, games, gently used toys, collectible figurines, and even a floor telescope, alongside books.
"We accept anything educational or pop culture-oriented," says Robbie Nickles. This unique selling point coincides with a trend towards diversity in consumables, from board games to vintage media. According to Sara, Nickles’ unwavering commitment to local inventory caters to those who migrate from as far as Kansas City or Dallas to avoid complicated trade restrictions.
Why Nickles Stands Out?
The Nickles difference lies in its inclusive treatment of various collectible items, not limited to classic and contemporary books. This retail model provides a holistic shopping experience, appealing to patrons interested in a wide array of eclectic offerings, not just literature.
Moreover, the store’s model of trade credits allows customers to diversify their purchases even further. "Nickles is filling a gap I noticed upon moving to the area,” notes Robbie. “We keep 100% of the inventory in-store, ensuring our customers can find everything from classic favorites to hot titles, sprawling across all ages and genres.”
A Love Letter to Broken Arrow
Sara Nickles shares their voracious appreciation for the Broken Arrow community. "We have absolutely fallen head over heels in love with Broken Arrow," she remarks. This sentiment is reciprocated, as Nickles is already outgrowing its first location. Expect a diverse trove of board games, cameras, scientific calculators, record and movie players, comic books, and more—all under one roof in the new Broken Arrow hub.
Call to Action
Interested patrons are urged to mark their calendars for Nov. 2, when the new Nickles Used Books and More store at 816 S. Aspen Ave. will officially open its doors. Prepare to indulge in the thrill of discovering all your collectibles and books in one whimsical locale. Who said a used bookshop can’t be a toy and treasure trove too?
