YSF BOOKS

YSF BOOKS HAS CLOSED AS A HIGH STREET GENERAL SECOND HAND BOOK DEALER !
THE LAST BOOK WENT TO A GOOD HOME ON
SATURDAY THE 14th FEB 04.
THE REASON FOR THIS SORRY STATE IS A GENERAL AND PROGRESSIVE DECLINE IN SALES, DUE LARGELY TO A  SPREADING REGRESSION IN SOCIETY.
WHY READ THE NARRATIVE WHEN YOU CAN SEE THE EDITED HIGH LIGHTS ON FILM AND TV!
THE GENERAL STATE OF EDUCATION TEACHES OUR CHILDREN THAT THEY ONLY NEED TO KNOW WHAT IS ON THE SYLLABUS IN ORDER TO PASS EXAMS, AND TO DO THAT THEY ONLY NEED TO READ THE BULLET POINTS IN A STUDY GUIDE!
WE WILL STILL BE TRADING ON LINE BUT THE NEW SITE WILL NOT BE UP AND RUNNING UNTIL APRIL.
SO IN THE MEANTIME IF THERE IS A SECOND-HAND BOOK SHOP IN YOUR AREA, TRY AND BUY A BOOK ONCE A MONTH AT LEAST, OR THEY WILL NOT SURVIVE.....YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'VE GOT TILL IT'S GONE.

ABOUT YSF BOOKS

We've been trading in antiquarian and general second hand books for over 15 years, and now our stock is in excess of 80,000 titles in over 200 categories housed on 2,000 feet of shelves, (It has been brought to my attention that this equals about three books to the inch, this is the case in some categories, but the discrepancy is due to us carrying a large off the shelf stock) covering almost every conceivable topic from local Sheffield history,
to the safest footpaths in Tibet.
We open at 9.30am & close at 5.30pm Mon.-Sat
Bank holidays 11.00am to 4.00pm

If you're wondering what "YSF" stands for then there is a choice, ether its Yorkshire Second-hand Facts, or,
on the evening we were trying to decide what to call the business, sitting outside, with that post bar-b-q hunger, and washing the taste of charcoal away, we noticed the car registration, YSF 6.
So to be unconventional it was decided to make the business match the registration !
