Ladies who work behind the counter are quite friendly and helpful. You are most likely to find whatever youre looking for in this shop so thats quite convenient. They also sell posters you can put up in your room which I think is quite cute.

They have most books that are required for the syllabus, however most books do only include what the course convener has told them to get. Other books that are suggested or are told to get may not be at the book store. They are however very helpful when looking for a book they do have in stock or able to get. Stationary can be limiting (depending what is needed).

Ju
Review №22

Always a good browse. Stationary selection is good. Then there is the UCT branded clothing. I have so many T-shirts.

Pe
Review №23

Stock most of the textbooks needed by students. UCT merchandise as well. Be on the look out for end of year clearance sales. The store accept both cards and cash payment. Students who are on financial aid can also use their cards to buy stationery and books here. The prices are reasonable as well, compared to other stores online. Just try to avoid lunch hours queues if you are in a hurry.

Review №34

If you are looking for stationery or a new textbook this is the place to go. Price on some items are a bit high, but situated in UCT and they usually have most of the required textbooks for the courses. I assume the order it otherwise. UCT apparel is also found here. Staff are friendly and shall assist you, if you ask of course. Usually stock is available, have been out of stock once before when I made a visit.Sales on old textbooks and a few readers are placed in the front desk as you walk in on the left.Overall a good store.

Helpful staff. Usually keeps up to date with the prescribed textbooks that the uct students need, with the pricing similar to competitor book stores. Sells some stationery, uct merch and some other things students usually need.
