The highlight of the sale today would be the tendering of rare books.
The rare books had been on display since Saturday. As of yesterday, there had not been a huge amount of offers - likely because people were going home to research before making a bid.
Other popular items were vinyl records, which flew out the door.
"We don't take tapes or cassettes any more, but you can't beat the quality of vinyl," Mrs Pritchard said. "Fiction is probably the most popular side these days. The thing with non-fiction is there's so much of it available online.
"Encyclopedias usually just get thrown out."
The funds raised from the book sale would go towards a number of charities. The Rotary Club of Tauranga had a particular interest in supporting children's learning, so donated to charities such as Duffy Books and Dictionaries in Schools.
