    This place is a joke! The people working there are so rude (over the phone and in the store) and have no idea what the word polite is. The manager downstairs wasn’t the greatest help either. Will never be going there again for future books, etc. Honestly your better off finding your school stuff somewhere else.

    What kind of place doesn’t have enough class packets for the semester? The staff doesn’t know how to look up a sku without management. Needs work

    Prices of books are mostly high, but not so bad customer service.

    Less a bookstore and more a sports apparel shop that also sells books. (One must literally descend into the basement to see even one book.) As an instructor, I've noticed that they tend to under-buy, but you're getting a better deal on Amazon anyway. Prices on standard school supplies are hugely inflated. $10 for a drawing pad? No, thank you.
