Disrespectful employees trying to rob students of their money.

I have never had a problem with vbc and have been getting books there for years, but now they require your student ID, which was in my truck. I told them I parked across campus and was in a bit of hurry and I didn't have time to run and grab it. So instead of accommodating, they let a $100 sale walk out of the door. Obviously it's not going to hurt their business, but it changed my perception of their customer service.

Tried to sell a brand new book back to them they offered 1/4th the price

Do not recommend. Go to Book Holders / Barnes and Noble

Textbooks here are a lot cheaper and the same quality as those at Barnes and Noble! And the staff and atmosphere are a lot more pleasant than Bookholders. It's a small place, but they do have some merch and school supplies (like Chemistry goggles and notebooks) as well. Their sell-back policy for textbooks is a lot easier than Bookholders' and you can actually get some money back for what they can take.

If you can't find a textbook off of Amazon this is the only physical store on campus I would recommend going to! Prices aren't as bad as at Barnes and Nobles and the quality and customer service is much better than Book Holders. Staff has always been helpful!

Not very nice to students. Woman who works there got angry because an employee paid the .69 shortage that was preventing the student from purchasing their stuff. Awful.
