HPB has 4 stores in Indianapolis and suburbs. They came in 30-40 years ago and, sadly, drove out most of the other used book stores of any size. Fortunately there are some good used bookstores remaining in other nearby cities like Bloomington and Ft. Wayne.
I do like HPB though. For buying anyway, not selling. You're better off giving your books to the library or charity than you are selling stuff to HPB for the pittance they will give you.
