ARE ITEMS AVAILABLE IN STORE?
Yes, some! (but we can easily get items for you if you prefer to shop in-store)
While our store carries large inventory to provide customers with a wide selection, it is not practical to hold copies of every item available on this website - we would need over 8 kms of shelving just to hold one copy of each book title available on our website. The items that say "in stock at Real Groovy" are in the store presently. You can also use filters to choose 'in store'.
We often set up special-orders in-store, give us a call (09 3023940) for something that isn't on the website.
