SDSU Bookstore Reviews

Had to spend some money here. I just got accepted to SDSU!!!!

Expensive but convenient, and you don't have to go to an Apple store to check out the new Apple stuff.

So much stuff to choose from. Large store with a variety of things to choose from. Proces are very reasonable. They even sell individual pencils and scateon tests for student. They have an AZTech center for all your tech questions. I love this store!

Pricey on everything's. College is very costly now a day. Poor kids will be broke before getting their first pay check.

What crowded mess... if you can't avoid coming during the first week of a new semester, at least do yourself a favor and arrive when it opens.

A nice place to stop and get a few supplies. When we visited, the top floor was closed off but someone escorted my friend upstairs to retrieve what they were looking for. They also had a television and a few chairs, playing the women's soccer game.

Very helpful and friendly staff assisted me in finding all of the books I needed.

Tired of having to ask for my receipts and it's annoying being asked as a student who pays thousands in tuition to donate money. I don't have.

Prices are extremely high and service depends on the cashier, it tends to flip. One visit the staff is extremely helpful, but by the next they act like I m a burden.

Use KB books instead. At the sdsu bookstore they will not let you buy books online and let your student pick them up. They require you to have the books mailed to the dorm. Also every time I've found a better price at the bookstore it's because they don't have that book. Instead now I order from KB online and my son can walk over and pick them up (they're next to the freshman dorms).

Very nice campus store. Everything an SDSU student/fan could want.

The Staff was super pleasant and helpful to my needs :)

It's a very nice store, but like any college bookstore the prices are high.

A good store overall, but I bought a sweatshirt there for $40 which was supposed to be a 2XL, and when I tried it on, it didn t fit, and I looked at the tag and it looked like there was a fake or written 2 in front of the printed on XL, a waste of $40, and really upset me because they pretty much sold me an XL instead of 2XL.

Super convenient. Has about everything you could need on campus from textbooks & notebooks to calendars to tech to fun stuff and clothing. Textbooks are well priced (especially if you use EZ Books. Everything else is slightly expensive, but they are a non profit so they often donate excess money to campus and student initiatives and to the community.

Everything is overpriced. They really take advantage of their students

I had awesome service from the associate on open house saturday. Store was packed, checkout lines were moving fast.

Basing this purely off of plethora of Aztecs gear, I give them high marks. However, coming from a former student, you can find textbooks much cheaper on Amazon.

Great shopping experience! Staff was very customer service friendly and helpful!

Overall, I enjoy my visits. Clerks have all been nice and 100 percent present to take their time to help me with complex requests, even during book rush. Like all college bookstores, it's a bit overpriced. Paperback novels have a discount section - I bought Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. Pro tip: order for textbooks online for pickup.

You must look up the the prices online before buying from there. They tend to have higher prices

Fast and efficient. I had to get a last minute iclicker during the first week of school. The line was huge! I was in and out in 30 minutes surprisingly. There's something for everyone in the bookstore.

Took a campus tour with son and wandered into the book store. Loved it!

During my visit to SDSU, for parent/student orientation, I had the pleasure to check out the resource center for books, apparel and other various items, and I have to say that I was quite impressed. The fact that books here are discounted and all proceedings go towards the school was a major point of sale for me. Being an avid reader, knowing that new source material to further expand the vault of knowledge is not only available for a reasonable price, but money spent also aids in the education of our country's future leaders, was a big plus.

Fun and functional place to buy books and SDSU swag!

They will price match like any other college bookstore but otherwise prices are very high otherwise. Staff is nice and helpful though and proceeds go back to the school. Only one dressing room, so mind that, and the line moves quickly once you need to check out. They have sales on holidays and that's when its especially busy but the items that I have bought (leggings and a beanie, from the sale section of course) seem to be of good quality.
Sometimes if I dont want to buy a book and its not in the reserves at the library(or I just dont want to walk there), I will go upstairs and just sit on the floor and read it there. Be sure to know for sure if you want to be in a class by the deadline after 10 days because that's when they will stop accepting returns. But always be sure to check the sdsu resale pages on Facebook because you can get clickers, calculators and lots of other materials for way cheaper if you don't mind used things

Incredible place to visit and stay if you need to study.

They say not for profit when they actually "donate" their funds to the campus. Find your school supplies elsewhere if you can it will be way cheaper

Prices on school supplies are slightly more expensive, and the lines to check out are long. There's a great selection of SDSU clothing.

They are very organize when it comes to checking out and have the essential materials for students. They also have a mini theater where you can wait for the line to die down or just enjoy the movie .

The SDSU bookstore has it all, from text books for nearly every class on campus, to dorm supplies to high grade laptops, if you need it for college, or can send it back to the family as a gift, you can find it here. Lots of great SDSU merch, and a great staff.

Excellent selection of SDSU gear at reasonable prices. Difficult place to get to, due to lack of accessible public parking. Sometimes better to shop online. Great holiday sales.

A very casual & pleasant atmosphere; very conducive to studying, research, relaxing & sourcing out ones need for a project or work. It's centrally located in the middle of San Diego State University campus, close to most educational buildings.

I found the most cutest stickers to put on my hydro, they were like a $1 each ( I ended up getting10). Also I bought pura vida jewelry from there too

Great selection of SDSU attire, stationery, and books. I got most excited about the colored fountain pens!

Awesome selection of items for sdsu alumni or new students and family. They were well staffed and had a great selection and depth of sizes

Great variety but extremely marked up prices for clothing

Always easy to buy and return products. They price match many website as well. Too easy.

Nice comfortable shop with tons of Aztec gear and books!

Clean and organized, bought some art supplies and they were amazing!

They sell books for classes, school supplies, other types of books, electronics and clothing. Its all neatly placed and its clean 99 % of the time. Prices are alright.

Can get extremely crowded during peak periods but is usually fine and organized

It wasn't very friendly to wheel chairs but other than that it's great

Prices are a rip off, but I do love all the gear in the store. Very clean and very efficient register system. Even at the beginning of the year, although there are a massive amount of students getting books, they go by really quickly.

One of the best bookstores out of all the universities I've been. Everything is questionably expensive, but that's to be expected.

Great store, but you can find gear on Amazon for less

The bookstore was very busy at the beginning of the Spring, 2017 semester, but if you ask for help, you get it.
All a student needs to do is to input their SDSU info into a provided pc, and print out one's individualized book list.
From there, all books are alphabetically stacked. Easy as pie!

I got to school here, therefore I criticize things a lot but this bookstore is awesome and got everything I need if I new anything else they just order it for you and call you back to follow up. Great group of respectful and responsible people run this place.

You can buy a variety of major books school supplies second-hand books

Everything u want u will find it there but double-prices

Stopped in here after my son and I finished his freshman year orientation so we could pick up some cool swag and show some pride in this new school that he got accepted to. Lots of cool apparel and knick knacks. Those prices though... Are you familiar with the term "price gouging." Holy smokes! This is, I'm sure, indicative of what a costly affair this whole college endeavor is going to be like. Hey 2 Chainz, why don't you come do an episode of Most Expensivest at the SDSU Bookstore. Haha Haha.

Alumni from a long time ago. Great visit, brought back memories and I left with some gear for my kiddos.

Huge, ton of items from makeup to shirts to computer equipment and more. Very convenient for students in emergency situations. Also, can be expensive on items, wo look around if you can.

This review is just for the staff, who are super helpful. The books are a total ripoff though...

It's nice. Everyone knows what they're doing. Clean. Weird stuff downstairs and tons of books upstairs. If your looking for any books not for a class, I would highly not recommend. Not a wide selection for that type of book shopping.
