Reviews

First off, I am an online student only, and as such I will base my review from that standpoint.  My first semester I ordered online, and drove the hour and half one way, to the store to pickup my books, there were no issues.  The rest of my semesters I would compare and it was usually cheaper to order my books from Amazon, and I knew that I would get them within 2 days.  My last semester there was actually one of my books that was much cheaper from the bookstore so I ordered it there and had it shipped.  I was advised by others that I know about issues they had, but went ahead and tried, surely not ALL orders are that way, right?  The online order status that they offer on their website is fairly useless, the only status it ever showed was "processing", because of this I called to check on my order and I was told it would ship the next day.  After a couple days I looked online, status was the same so I called to verify again.  This time I was told that the books would be arriving there later that day and it would be picked and processed then.  Finally about 4 days after that I received a notification that they had shipped, with an expected delivery 2 days after classes start.  If you use them as an online student I highly recommend that you order plenty in advance, as it will take a fair amount of time, you will be unaware of backorders and they can not seem to give you a real update, even when you call them.  These issues were the exact same I was advised about, so if you order and have them shipped, just plan ahead because the process could be very slow to get them.

Overpriced yes, but beautifully organized, great amenities, and friendly service. One of the best campus bookstores I've been to.

It's overpriced and poorly organized. I do not for the life of me understand why there is a huge make up stand in the middle of a book store. I wish they just stuck to books and kept the rest of the crap at another store on campus.

If you decide to not save money buy buying your books used online, or just ran out of time, this bookstore will hook you up, and fast.  Fast service, excellent staff, and everything is organized.  It's the best, out of three college bookstores that I've shopped at, by far.
