CB&S Bookstore

These guys have everything you could need. They could bring in a more diverse section of pens, but they do have all you’ll need. They have awesome UCF products and they have reasonable prices on most things. It’s also conveniently located next to publix and chewy boba company: a plus!
Definitely recommend.

This is where I go to find textbooks, especially for UCF classes, but also for general information on topics. If you go after classes start, you can find good materials that is useful.
The store is filled with buys. I found some good bargain literature collections at a real cheap price.
The staff will look up your course data and find the book if they don’t have it on hand. Even if you end up buying some at Amazon, buying from here saves shipping costs and the few days needed to get the book to you. They’ll also direct you to the right spot in the store. At times its hard to find a clerk because they’re busy with other customers or stocking but if you look around, you’ll soon find one ready to help.
They also have supplies and sweatshirts and stuff like that.
They buy back books too. The make it easy by giving you great receipts.
The bookstore is in a great location with easy in, easy out due to lights, and plenty of parking.
All college textbooks are pricey, but these have decent prices, some used.

Buying textbooks can be a nightmare. We all know that we’ll have to pay a pretty high price for all those required texts each semester, no matter which avenue we choose. I often choose CB&S to purchase the books I am unable to find cheap online, not because they have the best prices or customer service, but because they beat local competitors’ prices by 10%.
Each semester, I look for the cheapest prices on textbooks. Then I bring the evidence to CB&S to get the price beat. The staff here is helpful enough (some way more than others), but I’m usually disappointed by the selection. They have had the wrong book on display for one of my classes before. Another time, the store never even kept stock of a popular Economics book I needed.

Always ask them to check the back for used books if you don’t see them on the floor. Several times I was able to find my text books used after the campus book store was out. $ 45 is so much better than $ 110!

CB&S Bookstore is where I would always go to buy my textbooks, avoiding the long lines and high prices of Barnes and Noble on UCF campus. They offer almost all of the same books, but they are at a more reasonable price and offer book buyback, which means you can sell your book back near the end of the semester to get some cold hard cash back. That is the reason their prices are so reasonable, because many times their books are used (although you can buy new as well). As long as your book isn’t too worn, they will take it back. They also have a bunch of UCF memorabilia, and their staff is always aggressively helpful (do they work on commission?). I would say go here over any on campus bookstores any day.
