It would be helpful if the USC bookstore delivered also to other regions than only to the US...

Easily makes my top three favorite bookstores in major cities list!! I was in there forever! I love all the little corners you can sit and read at. I love all the artwork, poems, and quotes on the walls. Theres three stories, be sure to check each one out. Such a humble and charming little bookstore!

Very well stocked book store. Has lots of USC shirts, hats, all kinds of apparel. Very efficient when there is a game or something else big, they have more than 50 checkout clerks. Most of them students. One or the most famous and top universities in the world. Tons of historical and famous buildings

Horridly rude - even when the store was empty, staff cannot be found anywhere but at the cash registers. When you finally find them there, they *refuse* to unlock the empty fitting rooms and throw an attitude when you ask them for just about anything. USC, you might consider improving the customer experience.

Great place to browse a selection of books, many of them second hand for extremely cheap. Inside its like a maze, with bookshelves built from reclaimed wood. Theyve got a few desks and chairs you can settle into for reading. Great place to people watch, as this is a hipsters paradise! Reminds me very much of the Shakespeare & Co bookstore in Paris, very lovely!

I am SO sick of Google trying to give the schedule and failing. Im here on Sunday and it isnt open until 10pm, as the online information tells me. This is a constant problem for me.

Three stories of USC gear. Seems like they have anything you would want with USC on it. Broad selection from necessities to accessories. Plus, a cupcake ATM. On game days, it is packed--including the line to get in. Staff do a good job of keeping the lines moving.

A large, impressive bookstore with all of your student needs. Ive ordered a few things off of their website as well and the met and/or exceeded my expectations. The only negative is that some stuff is overpriced. Fight On!

A great place to just go and pass some time. Reflects the USC culture. Stuff isnt the cheapest, but certainly worth to buy some stuff from here.

Their website will charge you money without sending you the product.

The most beautiful book store Ive ever seen. It is four floors and they have everything a student would need from books, to gear, to snacks.

Renovated a few times since I was going to school & graduated from there. Makes much more sense the way the floors are set up now. A little pricey, but what isnt these days?

Its on the expensive side, but you cant really expect anything else from USC. Every cashier Ive had has been friendly. The layout is nice. Pro tip: If youre looking to buy an AUX cable, buy one here. Theyre cheap!

Review №18

Been ordering USC items for years. This year I ordered three USC Rose Bowl items. Received a confirmation number & my credit card was charged.I received two of the items so I assumed the third would follow soon. Finally I called & was told them were out of that item. Why I was confirmed & charged for the three items is unacceptable.

They have a better selection in here compared to other bookstores. I like the books from here more because they are versatile with their genre and there are a lot more to dig up.

Review №24

What a horribly incompetent place to buy a computer from. We purchased an iMac for a lab at HSC, received a malfunctioning unit, had it send out for repair. The unit sat in the bookstore without anybody paying attention to it. After intervention from our side they sent it out for repair. It came back with the exact same issue. Second time repair took 2 weeks. And again the computer is sitting at the main campus while it should be delivered to HSC. Terrible

Normally they are very helpful. They were not helpful on this day and acted as if they had no knowledge of what they had in stock. I didnt enjoy my experience here this time.

Review №28

I came here during college, primarily to pick up swag for home games. I got those metal pins reading BEAT [X], armbands, stick-on tattoos, and so on. Theyve got a wide selection of t-shirts, but those turned out to be as tacky as most screen printed shirts so I would rather have opted for sweatshirts (except of course those hardly prove relevant). All in all, I advice college first years to take it slow on the college merch. Who knows if youll still want it two or four years from now. Plus, freshman fifteen means you may get the wrong size!My primary problem is with the sourcing it their athletic apparel. The football team and by extension the bookstore source their wares from Nike, which has been known with good reason as a massive sweatshop. Their PR troubles (read: child labor, physical abuse, unpaid overtime, no benefits) began in the 90s and despite widespread apologetics they continue to use them today. USC footballs had its own ethical lapses, but none as awful as their reliance on indentured servants.

They really need to place price tag within their items. They get to you by surprising you with a $4 ice cream by the register. Haha

Hours on Google are incorrect. Google says the bookstore closes at 8pm on Friday. The sign by the door said it closes at 5pm or 6pm depending on the day.

When I went to the Science Center by metro, I stopped by because there was a USC on the other side of the metro station. I cant go around on the vast campus. You can also buy souvenirs at this bookstore.
