It's an alright store, they undersell you on any book buy back and resell it as if it were new. I'd suggest renting books if you really need them, but their prices aren't very competitive. There is a cool mineral and fossil collection up for sale that's visible from the parking lot, it's all pretty neat. But yeah, over all it's pretty average. Nice cat though.

This is the cheapest place to get books, and the staff there are all so friendly and helpful. It's so nice not to have to break the bank to buy books, and buying and selling is super easy as well.

Go to this place if you don't mind getting ripped off. The prices for rentals are high and the fees are outrageous. I planned ahead and bought my books used online and paid less than the rental fees at this place. After the semester ended, I sold them online myself and ended up paying mere pennies overall. Students are swimming in debt due to the high cost of university education, they really do not need more financial stress over textbooks. This is a shameful business that preys on naive students.

Great service, and great prices. They say they have the best prices and from all that I have seen it's true. Unlike BYU-I bookstore, you can buy the book at the end of the semester by just paying the difference so if nothing else, this makes it worth it.

Book Viking is awesome! I always get a good deal and even better, I never have to wait in line or search for anything. Lines are also short when I come, and the Book Viking employees find all books for you. It's a no brainer for me.

The owner was so helpful and amazing. I was able to get and return my books quickly and efficiently. It was a truely wonderful customer experience. I feel like I've ascended to enlightenment. There isn't anywhere I'd rather go to rent books. In fact, there isn't anywhere I'd rather be period.

Good stuff.

Good books.
just follow the 1 or 2 rules they give, plan ahead, come on.

Great prices, fair return policy. The owner is willing to work with customers on returns and exchanges. There are also some beautiful butterflies and semiprecious stones available for sale.

Unbeatable prices but it was very rushed and I thought I had the wrong book and no one would help me, just needed them to go and check but they refused and pushed me through. Resulted in a major panic attack on my part (which the cashier noticed and she was very sweet) and having to go return the book the next day when it was wrong.

I have been going to Viking Book Store since I was a freshmen, have always checked to ensure whether it, online, or the university store and always have been more satisfied with viking. Will be using it for the rest of my time here. I also like the staff. They are all great.

Better prices than the university store and has helpful staff. They almost always have any book you need. You are likely to find the same books cheaper on Amazon. The store itself always seems cluttered and not that clean.

Definitely go here instead of the University Store. It is cheaper and way faster. They have your booklist on the computer and they grab your books for you. Have used it for the past 3 semester and love it!

This place is fantastic! I used to work here, so I understand the system. They will almost always be cheaper than the schools books, yet the quality will be just the same (new is still new, used is still used). On top of that, the employees are super friendly. The process is painless as long as you return rented books on time. I don't see why anyone would rent anywhere else!

I ordered a book from BookViking, It quickly arrived in great condition, However, I had to drop my class so I returned the book. My money was quickly refunded after I contacted Brian Abrams. I would recommend BookViking!

This place may very well have saved me from a debt filled life. They are very kind and understanding. Their prices are easily half that of what the university sells them and they have cool rocks/minerals... where s that collection bookstore??? They are flexible on returns and actually sound like they want to help you out.

I've rented my books from here for a couple of years now ever since I found out the prices were cheaper than the university store prices! The service is helpful and super nice! Wouldn't rent my books from anywhere else! :)

This business provides a great service! I don't know a better way to get the books you need for your classes than through Book Viking, it's cheep, good quality, and has great customer service.

They have an efficient system for getting your books. Computers are available to print off your booklist from the school website, and an employee gathers your books for you (they're all behind the counter) and sends you to check out. Cheaper than on-campus rentals, plus they have a neat cat.

I always come to Book Viking instead of renting from the school. It's so much cheaper than anything you can find online as well. Renting/buying my books here has saved me so much money and as a college student, that's always a bonus.

Book Viking has great prices on books! I went to them just to support local businesses, but was pleasantly surprised at their cheaper options! The were 25% cheaper than campus! I highly recommend checking with them first on any books you need.
