DO NOT BUY ELECTRONICS AT THE BOOKSTORE!
The people who work there have no idea what they are doing.
I had to buy a new charger for my laptop so I made sure to bring it in. After showing the worker in the tech department my laptop, they told me specifically which charger I would need. Not only was it $80, but it was the wrong charger. Took it back the next day and spoke to the supervisor who was clueless about her own products. She also wouldn't exchange a new one for me because I removed the plastic packaging on the old one so it couldn't be returned or exchanged! She said it was an apple policy.. I am a senior here at OSU, this school has taken plenty of my money. I am disgusted at the bookstore for not being able to do a simple exchange and take that small loss from something that was their fault.

Wonderful selection and very reasonable prices. Although some items may be slightly higher in price their selection makes up for it. Everything "Beavers" under one roof.
A little warm inside if you are dressed for a cold day so leave your scarf and beanie in the car.

Tons of great OSU gear to buy but the prices are insane. If you want a hoodie be ready to spend at least $40 and $20 for a basic t shirt. I get it's a campus and there is a mindset that you can charge whatever you want but if you want support from the community and alumni that buy tickets for your sports events it would be helpful to have affordable options. There is something for everyone from men's, woman's, kids and toddlers along with stickers, decals, flags etc. Also connected to the students books section with a small laptop and electronics section like most standard college book stores. Staff is very helpful better than most places.

Really disappointed in the service at the OSU Beaver Store. My mom bought an OSU backpack for my daughter (she wanted it - go Beavs!) this year and the zipper pull came off after light use (she's 9 and is hardly dragging it through the mud!) and the stitching is coming undone. My mom went to exchange it for one that was hopefully not defective and first got the run around and then was told that she was past the date in which their policy allows for exchanges (by 4 days!). Their solution? My mom got a "50% off your next purchase" coupon. Yeah, so she can buy more crappy, marked-up products? Ha! Note to the OSU Beaver Store: if you sell your items at a premium, make sure to buy premium products prior to putting your logo on them. Or at least have the common sense to have good relationships with your suppliers so that you can return defective products.

Friends, you've been warned...

The service and selection areally great! However, when I can find a new book elsewhere for $100 less than they want to charge for a used version, I have to question the claim they are "non-profit". I've also purchased a book and never even taken it out of the shrink wrap and tried to sell it back at the end of the term and was told they aren't buying that book anymore.

The new OSU Beaver Store on campus is AWESOME! The expanded selection of merchandise, from OSU branded gear to everyday wear like Lucky Brand and Under Armor are great. The store is conveniently located on campus and provides ample parking in the OSU Parking Garage.

I've been shopping here both in person and online since 1996 while earing a degree in 2020. Best in the nation and best deals on textbooks and fan gear. OSU bookstore is a rare gem of the Pac 12, for fans, students, alumni that continues to lead into the next century. Let's expand into the LA market. -Benny Beaver '2020 #GoBeavs

Absolute idiots....
Beaver baseball game ended at 4:45, we head to the Beaver Store and they closed up shop to a swarm of people that wanted gear after the largest attended game on record.

Considering what the bookstore in my undergrad college town was like, the Beaver Store is phenomenal. It's the first college bookstore I've ever been to that sold affordable books to students-- what a concept! For the most part, the staff are friendly and attentive. I would probably not buy most school supplies here, as they're certainly marked up, but the books are a great price. I rarely find them cheaper online.
