This place is over priced and the workers are incompetent.
Backstory...
May 2017: I came in to exchange some bike shorts for a different size. They didn't have it in stock so they told me they would order it and it would be in within 2 weeks.
4 weeks go by and my order still hasn't arrived.

An exploitative, and expensive organization that only continues to exist because they are located on a college campus. In any other context, their abusive company practices would turn away all their customers. But since their customer base turns over every 4 years, they don't have to treat them wit...

Very poorly run, i was sent in multiple circles by people who seem like they don't know what they're doing. Considering we're working with very expensive books, you'd think the service would be effective and clear in order to avoid any accidents. Unfortunately, this book never features neither.

Some student's believe the book center is only for textbooks and spirit gear, but the book store shockingly has a great selection of reading material to fill your spare time at very reasonable prices! Even if you don't read you can get a gold trimmed classic for your coffee table to impress one of t...

At the entrance of Stample student union, we present you....the Kertle! (Whaaaaat??!). Well, Kermit the frog plus turtle I guess ...this artist is a genius! Jim Hensen, the creator of Kermit the frog, actually graduated from UMD and the mascot of UMD is the testudo(turtle). Can't stop laughing!

Prohibitively expensive for basic supplies, and took nearly a month to stock nessecary textbooks for not one but two of my classes. Convenience aside I do not think this location is managed well, and I was not the only one with textbook issues this semester- with books having been ordered many week...

The books are way overpriced! I bought a lose leaf book(with shrink wrap) in a hurry for 168$ where you can find a hardcover(new) of the same book on amazon for 175$. And when I wanted to return it one day later without even damaging the shrink wrap, they said it s their policy not to accept returns...

The absolute best UMD apparel but like everyone says, the prices are horrendous. It s a state university but they charge like everyone that goes there comes from a Harvard family background of 200k+ family household income. I grabbed a UMD polo tee and a sticker. I paid around 120$. The sticker was ...

Received a $50 charge that wasn t mine from the university bookstore. I called multiple times and left multiple messages over the course of the week. No response whatsoever. I wanted to speak with a store representative to deal with the charge internally, but I suppose I now have to report it as fra...
