Rod Stewart LP with tatty cover for £30.Way over priced, as were most of the others. You are a charity shop, not a rare record shop. Be realistic and you may sell more...

While some of their rare collectible books are overpriced, Oxfam Books & Music in Harborne is the best charity shop I have used for secondhand books. I have found some fabulous well-priced books in there.The staff are lovely. Always polite, friendly and helpful.

Good selection of quality donated books, but at ridiculous prices. Minimum price for non-tatty nonfiction books was £10. And that?s the price for ordinary, every day history or art books, whether hardback or paperback. There were a few lovely, great condition art hardcover books for £50 to £70!! This is a charity shop, selling donated books in Birmingham - not a luxury secondhand bookshop in Mayfair. I?ve noticed Oxfam bookshops have become more and more greedy in their pricing over the last few years. Don?t they realise this will result in zero sales. This particular bookshop is by far the greediest Oxfam shop I?ve ever come across - I can see why they have such a fantastic range on their shelves. Two stars for the range and quality of books on sale, lost three stars for their unaffordable pricing.

Feel like the kid in the sweet shop here. Don't think I have ever been in and come out empty handed.

Vinyl records at gold price, low ethos and morality for a charity shopThey should not charge extortionate prices like £30 for a record

In an otherwise gloomy period of decline for secondhand booksellers, Oxfam have been notably successful with their blend of mid range pricing, slick marketing (for a charity shop) and quality paperbacks. Dropping into Oxfam following a trip to Birmingham Botanic Gardens, I came away with a bag full of poetry. I'm a fan of Oxfam bookshops, though I can understand why secondhand booksellers aren't so keen.

Good selection of quality second-hand books. Staff very friendly, but some rather slow and/or confused
