Stuart Ng Books - Torrance, California

This shop has an incredible selection. I ordered a few posters online as a Christmas present for my husband. The items arrived sooner than expected, and the packaging job was just stellar. I can't thank the seller enough. They took the time to ensure my items would arrive in perfect condition. I will continue to order from afar until I can make my way into the brick and mortar shop! Thanks again.

I purchased a gift card for my husband since this is his favorite store as an artist. I called to ask if it would be possible to have a physical gift card and even though it’s not usually offered. Casey went the extra mile to design, print, and FedEx a card to me in time for Christmas!! I can’t say thank you enough. You have a customer for life.

Forget Barnes and Noble, they have what you need here.
I was just looking around, but they have LOADS of art books here it’s crazy.
If I ever needed some niche art book I would look here first.

What a great shop! It's one of those places where if you keep looking around, you'll keep finding treasures. If you're a fan of pop and comic book art, they stock some incredible volumes including rare and out-of-print works. Stuart also purchases some fantastic sketchbooks that artists usually only carry at cons. You can find many autographed ones like the Humberto Ramos one I purchased. There are reference books, omnibus collections and more. The discount section is definitely worth sifting through. The staff is very insightful & helpful.

Love coming here. So much variety and always something new to find. Stuart really has a great eye for art books, especially more difficult to find (and flip through) import books.

It's hard to find a lot of images for these books online, so it's nice that he lets me go through each one before picking out my purchases.

Great sales too. Got a nice, out of print Disney art book for $5 today. Make sure to visit if you're interested in the world of illustration and animation at all. Awesome shop!

I'll be honest I rarely leave reviews but I just gotta with this one. I bought 3 Steven Universe books from three different sites/places.

The book I bought from Stuart NG Books was legit the only one that was properly packaged to avoid damage. It was even over packaged.

It arrived in a box. Wrapped in two layers of bubble wrap and then came in two layers of plastic.

Not only am I surprised at the care put into this book. I'm overjoyed it arrived in outstanding condition.

So much that I don't even want to open it. But I really want to give this book a read ;; and study the art. So open it I must ahhh.

I will be returning in the future ^^ 100%

AMAZING STORE OMG !! i pre-ordered the first print signed edition on the Encanto art book and first of all they use premium bubble wrap so you get nice maximum poppage time when its time to pop those bad boys. Nicely packaged and the book was in EXCELLENT delicious condition. Also when i got curious on my book because this was my first time ordering from them and Stuart was such a sweet fun guy! You got yourself a loyal customer👀

I'm a life-long illustration and art fan, and visiting Stuart Ng Books was the highlight of my trip to LA. I'd purchased a few books over many years from the store online, but nothing beats the real thing! The manager and staff were attentive and busy-but were knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. I had the pleasure of meeting Stuart himself and he was extremely generous with his time and open with his invaluable experience. He clearly has a genuine passion for what he does and this sincerity can be seen in the little details around his store. Things like unexpected hand-typed inserts in certain books giving them context to the reader, exclusive english translations of European publications, signed limited editions featuring some of the great local talent, and more.

If you're an artist of any sort or someone who just admires and appreciates their work, you owe it to yourself to check it out.
