The service and help finding what we wanted was phenomenal! They even had a roller for me to use after getting fuzzy from trying on a hoodie.

We were only looking for tshirts for gifts, so I cannot comment on academic offerings. They had a wide assortment of fairly expensive items in clothing. They did appear well made, although the designs lacked colour. I will admit that these are likely created elsewhere, and are not the store's choice. The cashier was efficient and accurate. The store was neat and clean.

Love my bookstore but they no longer keep hard copy books on hand and they must be ordered. Branded clothes are expensive but high quality. Selection of school supplies is somewhat mediocre. But also... they have Alienware that is often set up to demo and a decent amount of basic electronics for your dorm room needs. Staff is not super knowledgeable but they are new students from semester to semester so that's expected. They should offer Reusable bags at a low price because the paper bags aren't very sturdy.

The University is ginormous. Extremely clean, spacious and very beautiful. We drove there to see my B-I-L's old stomping grounds & to show my nephew that it is an option for him when he's ready.

Ordered Travis Hunter jersey when it came out on September 14th. Estimated delivery is October 31st… nearly 8 weeks later. Would have appreciated this info prior to ordering, will be lucky to have the jersey for 4 games this year. ThanksEdit- now pushed back to 11/15. What a joke. Probably should have given a heads up that the jersey would take over two months to arrive. A jersey from china would have come sooner

It is a good place for shopping stationery. They even have 3D printer printing in 20 mins.

Fantastic bookstore. Great cafeteria. Could not have been more pleased with my visit.

Store is good for what it is. I kind of wish that CU would put more money into growing their apparel options. Schools like Cornell, Harvard, and SEC schools have much cooler options for fans and students. Maybe Coach Prime can bring some swagger back to the bookstore...

The experience was mixed. I had ordered a M sized Hoodie but they handed me a XS sized crew neck sweatshirt instead. Their website is terrible to navigate and the availability of products is very limited.

How does a team with a $30 Million Coach make it so impossible to buy Merchandise? If you are elderly or disabled good luck even finding this place. Why wouldn’t they have a Store at the Stadium? No wonder they were the laughing stock of the PAC-12 for so long, maybe change a few things now that you might win a few games.

There's all kinds of CU gear, I've heard complaints about the staff but I've never had a problem with them. Strongly recommend buying books and stationery outside as they're really pricey.

Great option for peeping the campus and its offerings. Adjecent to a bowling/arcade type area, food hall, and a quick walk from an art gallery! Good location filled with lots of options.

I was visiting the college for my granddaughter's family weekend and always love going to the bookstore. Lots of variety of items to choose from

Book charges were erroneously added to my tuition bill by the book store and any kind of support in having those removed, answering why they were added, or when their internal documentation would be updated was absent.Edit: After 5 weeks they finally got back to me and the extra charges that never should have been added were removed.

Besides being an amazing school, this store is well organized and the the staff are great! Quick example: We wanted to get a pair of sweats in a size we didn't see in the rack and they confirmed in their system that 1 should be available...so they pulled it from storage for us.

The campus sits up against the mountains and the views are phenomenal. The tour of the school was exceptional and my wife and I feel more comfortable knowing where our son will be. All of the people were very friendly and helpful and the bookstore was amazing. The first floor is cool enough but the second floor is where you really need to go. It is massive and there are unique gifts for purchase downstairs.

It is your typical college bookstore. Gave it 5 stars because the staff was friendly, the store was well organized and clean and there was tons of great CU Boulder items to choose from.

They definitely have a lot of merchandise and obviously a lot of it is pricey... I would honestly give five stars but it's disappointing there's not a better selection of baseball hats and visors... I would have thought that they would be sort of a standard item to carry.

I actually couldn't go here as there is zero parking available near the store. It is meant for students and not other visitors or parents.

Staff was friendly, but could have been more helpful when we were looking for a particular item. The cashier never asked us If we needed help and we had to go to a different location and make a 2nd purchase.

Solid book store for a university of the size. The prices are pretty standard from what you would expect from a large university’s book store. Occasionally they have very good items on clearance in the back of the store that served as my source of clothes for about 3/4 of my college career. The discounts can be REALLY good if you like certain “sportswear” type items. The lines for returning bookings generally aren’t that bad, even during the most heavy of days. Usually they have the books that are needed for classes but sometimes they do run out but usually your professor will understand and work around the situation until the book is back in the store.

The polo shirts are all cheap thin material that makes me sweat. Can we just get at least one that is good quality cotton?

Kudos to the tour guide and the friendly staff at CU. I had the fortune to attend the parents orientation and I was very please with what I saw. One of my favorite parts was when parents and youngster were split into two different conference rooms and parents had the opportunity to ask anything to a panel of students from freshman to senior and in between. The questions were very good but even better where the answer from the student prospective. Feeling blessed.

This is the book store and merch store for CU boulder. It has all the things you could want from a school book store! Be careful when you come, it can sometimes be really busy here.

Surprisingly well run for the staff being only students, it's organized and looks great. Items available range from 3D prints, used or new books, to shirts and game day merch. Definitely visit if a fan of the Buffs, or even for just cheap used books!
