The only bookshops worth visiting these days are the ones with a focus on second hand books. At least that's the impression I've gotten from my own experiences visiting bookshops in major cities.

Depends on how cultured the city is. The most well-known bookstore of second hand books in the city I go to university to largely sell romance novels for fiction. The city has a population of about 130,000 with development spilling into nearby towns and is in a third world country. Literary classics pop up only very occasionally. I've barely seen a work of philosophy there.

Also here's an exchange I remember hearing from two Brits in the store:
A: "Are you interested in a book on Margaret Thatcher?"
B: "No."
