  Emailed them on Friday. They were closed for Memorial Day weekend, so I didn't expect to hear back from them until Tuesday. Today is Wednesday, and I still haven't received a reply to my email. Called them. Phone rang for ten minutes, then someone hurriedly answered and said she'd have to put me on hold. I was on 'hold' for twenty minutes before I just gave up. The reason I was calling? No gift certificates for sale on the bookstore website for graduation presents, etc. I'll just send an Amazon gift card, from what I've read, books are cheaper there anyway.

  4 stars for convenience. 0 stars for quality. Every semester they have failed to have an adequate number of books in stock and the jack the prices WAY up. For example, buying your online homework subscription from Pearson (or sapling or whatever) is 60 bucks but at the bookstore will cost 100. These numbers are made up because everything is priced differently but the situation isn't. Don't know why the school is trying to make a fortune off of its students when it already collects a substantial amount of money from us in the form of tuition and fees, but expect heavy markups for this purpose if you choose to shop here.
