About Us

 

Richard Gardner dreamed of owning a bookstore.  He started simply in 1991 by selling books out of boxes on the floor. Nearly two decades later, we’ve expanded to approximately 23,000 square feet of books, comics, DVDs, CDs/records, video games and collectibles.

 

We  buy/sell/trade nearly every form of media imaginable (please ask about our trade policy).  Our staff is friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable.  They can assist you in finding the perfect book for your taste.

 

If you get hungry while browsing, Faye’s Casual Cafe can serve your food and drink needs.  Other than delicious food and a fun atmosphere, they offer delicious coffee and sumptuous baked goods at an affordable price. 

 

Sound too good to be true?  It’s not!  Come visit us at 4421 S. Mingo Road and see for yourself!

Our friendly staff is always willing to help customers find just the right book.

From News on Six:

 
Text Box: From Tasha Does Tulsa: “What a weird, yet-wonderful, day. How better to cap it off than to extend that same theme into the evening with a trip to Gardner’s Used Books and Music? That place, just south of the B.A. Expressway on Mingo, is the weird-yet-wonderful capital of the universe.  The store boasts a collection of nearly two million gently used books, all shelved by category and sprawling about a half-acre. Want paperbacks? Head to Gardner's, where you can stock up for next to nothing.” Read the entire article here.

Fox 23 Helped Us Make A Commercial

 
Text Box: From the Tulsa World: “Not many bookstores have had a gigantic figure of the Hulk to greet its customers. But then, Gardner's Used Books and Music tends to take things to the extreme. Its 23,000 square feet of space makes it the city's - and likely the state's - largest used bookstore, with estimates of 800,000 to 1 million books on its shelves. Gardner's didn't start big, however. When Richard Gardner began the business in 1991, he had a total of 384 books to sell, stored in boxes on his office floor. Now, the shop has rooms devoted to mystery and romance novels, along with large sections devoted to science fiction, general fiction, military history, horror, history, biography and general nonfiction. The store expanded to carry used video and DVDs, music records and CDs, comics and associated collectibles.” Read the entire article here.
