Great place for getting ASU merchandise & souvenirs. Has a ton of stuff. It also has the Apple campus store within it. You can find all possible books here which ASU recommends. Things are a bit expensive here.

You can get all your textbooks here along with Sun Devil swag and other gifts. There is almost always some kind of clearance sale. As always with the "name brand" store for ASU, it's going to be more expensive, but it's all the nicest stuff.

I knew what I needed but the associates helped me get in and out quickly. Given that is is the first week of classes and everyone is mobbing the store I was in and out in under 10 minutes.

It can be frustrating when the electronic notifications say one thing and the staff says another. It is a college bookstore. Books and supplies as well as branded merchandise to get you into the team spirit.

this place has everything you need for class ... but it is pricey you figure they would have better pricing for students but that's not that case! You can find some good deals here on ASU clothing once in a while tho.

If you were hoping to buy things that are outrageously overpriced this is the place to go. Also, if you were hoping to spend a disgustingly large amount on a fairly worthless textbook this is also a great place to go. Seriously though, if you are looking for textbooks, Electronics, or ASU paraphernalia you can get it so much cheaper online. Book stores are, generally speaking, obscenely exploitative. Do your shopping elsewhere.

Sun Devils campus store is recommended place on campus to get course books and ASU merchandise it has huge variety of those and also you can get electronic devices for discounted price, merchandise costs bit high but if you really want one you have got plenty of options to choose from

Great selection of ASU merchandise at the center of campus. The line can get long but the staff manages the line extremely well so it moves quickly. Book returns are difficult, do them quick!

I was purchasing online and I couldn't have had a more inconvenient time. I ordered two day shipping and got a backordered email the next day. So I called in and was told to email a random email address and ask for assistance and have still not received an email back. The next day after another backorder email I called and they said to wait another day and call back to see if it would get backordered again! By this time I should've had my package already. I called again the next day after the 3rd backorder email and asked what could be done, and they said just to order something else. I hoped they would pay for my 2 day shipping for the inconvenience, especially since my gift would arrive late at this point. Of course they didn't help out with that either...I tried to give them a chance to make me a happy customer but it was denied.

Gather, ASU, for all your Sun Devil needs! Textbooks are, as to be expected, crazily overpriced, but that's college for ya! There's a Starbucks in the front, which is a nice touch. Also cool to check out the corner on the right-hand side of the store; they've got Apple and Microsoft products that are fun to explore. In-store textbook pickup can be a crazy hassle, so err on the side of getting there as early as you can.

Its a nicely put together store. Its neat and clean. Nicely organized. The prices are high but its still nice and easy to shop. They have clothing, computers,books and a bunch of other materials.

Worked here for about 5 months. The prices appear to be marked up like crazy (Really, Are you even trying to compete with the prices of online book market?). The usual Univ/Prof specific textbook scam with a new edition coming out every year. Unlike other retail jobs, It was easier to face the customers than speak to the managers.

I purchased the graduation outfit for my daughter there. The salesperson looked rather confused, kept asking the same questions. She stilll sold us the wrong outfit, we had to go back there.

The strengths of the Bookstore: They have a good chance of having the book you need for class. They have a good selection of gear (although they are NOT starving student prices). You have about a 40% chance of finding a helpful staff person that knows what they are doing. Starbuck's is good. The weaknesses of the Bookstore: The instructors do not always communicate with the bookstore so selection can be frustrating. Parking can be a challenge during during busy times. The book return policy can also be a bit frustrating. To be fair though, I think that is the case with just about all the college bookstores.

This store has almost everything you need ASU! Except the different branches of ASU. I study in ASU Prep and they don't have that. They don't have the uniform but nonetheless this store is great and has tons of ASU Merch.

The ASU Bookstore should just be renamed to the ASU Store. This store sells way more than books, including computers, apparel, and remembrance items. While the bookstore is easy to get lost in, the friendly staff is there to help you find what you want. And with hundreds of items in stock, you'll definitely find what you need. However, the prices here are insane. Books, clothes, and everything else can be bought for way cheaper online. I only suggest using this bookstore as a last resort if you can't find what you're looking for online.

If I could I would give them 0 stars. The return policy on their substantially overpriced textbooks is an insult to a student body that already pays exorbitant fees to this institution. Save yourself significant time and a headache and buy all of your course materials off of Amazon. I could have saved as much as 50% per book. Don't waste your time or money. If you want a stupid hat, this is probably your place. If you want to buy the materials necessary for learning, don't give them the time of day, they'll just throw it back in your face.

Pretty good selection, but did not have the hat I really wanted in my size. They were willing to order it, but we were just visiting, so it wouldn't help. Parking lot is small, and the parking spots were ridiculously small/tight.

The ASU does what it needs to do sell books pertaining to ASU classes. However the main problem with the book store is that you pay extra for the convenience of having the store on campus. Another negative note is that you can't spend the on campus currency, M&G, at the book store, which is frankly ridiculous.
