★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Went on Saturday to the new temporary location, to buy a bus pass. Waited at the unattended counter for a few minutes, then rang the bell for attention. No response. The sales person was standing around the corner talking to another person who appeared to be stacking shelves. I was the only other person in the shop. I went around the corner and made eye contact with the sales person and returned to the counter. They ignored me. After another 2 or 3 minutes they waltzed into the counter, with a most insincere "Sorry about the wait!". Don't be sorry, just don't be rude to customers in the first place.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Such a lovely bookshop! Unlike other university bookshops that are non-fiction academic-focused, this bookshop has a great array of fiction books and interesting reads. There is also a heavily discounted section for books that haven’t sold or are a little damaged. Staff are very friendly. We spent a good hour wandering around and left with a number of “wants to reads” on our list. Highly recommended.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Usually really friendly service with purchasing books and postage. Had a few frosty experiences w a particular clerk doing postage. Maybe caught them on a bad day? It isn't hard to be nice is it?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Only the best bookshop in Dunedin. It’s really as simple as that. Wonderful, caring, literary staff add to serious aggravation of tsundoku whenever one visits. And for me, that’s quite often.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I have only bought from them twice out of necessity and both times it took 2+ months to receive my order and it was a whole ordeal. It either wasn't delivered and I was called a liar even though it was later proven to have been incorrectly delivered to nearby house, or they sold me a book that wasn't in stock and didn't bother to tell me it would take nearly 3 months to arrive (the whole semester that I needed it). Both times my integrity was beyond reasonably questioned by workers, and I had to jump through so many hoops and pay $200 dollars for books that I didn't even have for almost the entire time I needed them. The only compensation or apologies I received were lack-luster to say the least and in the form of a "spend over $200 get 10% off, only valid for 6 months" coupon.... buy second hand if you can or just use the libraries or a friends, not worth the price or hassle.
