This Oxfam Shop has a good selection of books, cards and some brick-a-brac. Very professional layout and not at all tatty as some charity shops can be. If you have a search around early enough in the term you might even be able to pick up a relevant book or too for your studies like I did so worth a look. THe best part is it's all for charity :D 7/10

Given that oxfam is a charity shop, this particular branch has a good selection of items to choose from. They have clothes, books, gifts, cards, shoes and much more. You do have to dig deep to find something worth buying but once you do, it puts a smile on your face.

A very tastful branch of Oxfam with nice interior and a pleasant location in the centre of Durham. The items they sell are of course second hand but of good quality. It s definatly worth a look as you are bound to find a couple of gems.

Really nice branch of the well-known charity shop. Whilst most branches are tatty and run-down shops, this is an exception. Placed just over the bridge over the river, and with great attention paid to decoration and placement inside, you wouldn't even know that it is a charity shop. they have comfortable chairs upstairs to read in too.

This is an Oxfam bookshop, selling cards diaries and things on the ground floor, used non-fiction on the first floor, and used academic books and CDs/vinyl records on the second floor. Books are well priced, and it's a decently big store so there's a pretty big selection.
