Belfast Books
@belfastbooks.bsky.social
Only working class bookshop in Belfast. Specialise in used and out of print books about 'Troubles' in Northern Ireland at our tiny York Rd store. New books are at http://www.belfastbooks.co.uk with audiobooks at https://libro.fm/belfastbooks
This sought after book is currently Publisher Out of Stock (POS) in the UK, but the skanks at Amazon are still pretending they've stock of it, hoping to trick people into paying for a book they have ZERO prospect of getting.

Little wonder Bezos can afford a $500m yacht and a rumoured $600m wedding🙄

Can some please stop Mr Books from considering using fridges instead of bookshelves to shelve books?

The last posting day before Christmas in the U.K. is THE worst day of the year for Mr Books, as it's the day he takes all the panicked calls from people let down by Amazon🥺

If you support Amazon rather than indie bookshops can I suggest you look away now...

Mushrooms you say?

Northern Ireland's world famous breakfast - the #UlsterFry says "NEVER, NEVER...NEVER!!!"

Ah...those halcyon days when chain bookshops weren't owned by greedy grabby hedge funds...

People on here seem frightfully vexed about one particular squillionaire, yet are largely silent about one who has an equally atrocious record on union recognition, workers rights and much more.

Here's ours...

Local isn't always more expensive as you pay less for used books at ours with our ‪#CheaperThanThatSouthAmericanRiver‬ guarantee.

No matter the price on the label we scan every book in to check price at time of sale and give you a better than Amazon Marketplace price every...single...time

We have a security cat - a British Shorthair.

Don't say you weren't warned... 💙📚

For those of you who don't know us we have our own labels for used books sold in our retail shop.

That time our Mr Books faked a tweet that made it look like Jeff Bezos of Amazon had agreed to fight him for control of the UK book trade.

The date of the 'tweet' might have given the game away👀

Hello to everyone over here on 🦋

We're coming over from the other place to talk about books, indie bookshops, alternatives to Amazon, small business viral marketing and subsistence book selling.

Here's one we made earlier...
