Book Off

An adjective to refer to something of incredible value. A deal so ludicrous that it makes you wonder how a store could possibly be profiting from selling a product at such a low amount. The term originates from the second hand store chain in Japan known by the same name.

Person1: 10$ for 30 mint condition volumes of manga!? How is this even possible?
Person2: Yeah man, that's quite the Book Off deal.

Book off

When talking to someone on the bus, you say something inappropriate and they lose interest in the conversation.

They then proceed to get a book out and read it, leaving you thoroughly ignored.

Met this girl on the bus today, totally made me book off.
