Default Second-hand books in Lahore?

Salam to all members.

In Lahore, from where one can get second-hand/old books pertaining to general reading. They must be both qualitative and cheap.

Regards.

You can buy second hand books from Readings. its a book store in Lahore near Liberty Market and I shared its website because you can also order books online and they provide free home delivery service. I hope I don't need to clarify further.

It is the same which I wanted from you i.e. to make it clearer.

Readings is every book lovers nirvana but you will not find new bestsellers at cheaper rates. Try exploring old book shops in main market. Most of the bestsellers are available in pirated versions (Ironically I am against piracy but never mind ) or second hand copies.

Besta luck!

in Lahore every Sunday you can go to anarkali bazaar where is a huge market of 2nd hand books ,
at the end of urdu bazar opposite to Mori gate there are always some stalls of 2nd hand books but they will bring to their shops in narrow streets ,if you cant go to these places there are many book shops in Gulberg main market where they ssell 2nd hand books ,but personally i will recommend anarkali footpath market on every sunday ,please try them ,they start at 20rs

I am a book lover myself! There's a new place opened in cavalary ground Market, next to KFC, called READING @ HATCHARD'S. I recently visited and loved the place as you can get imported books at cheap prices, i can bet its a lot cheaper than readings and a lot nicer! You will find books on any subject and novels, the best part is that you can order them any book you want and they'll get arrange it for you!

I also found them on facebook and here's the link to their page *********
Hope you'll find it helpful.
