Review from Sarah A.
Stopped in again here last week. Still love this place. Mathieu is correct in that there is a large focus here on items that are not books or magazines (there really is a lot of random stuff, some of which could make for a cool gift for some one in the US). Personally, I don't really mind all that. I did pick up a great guide here on Quebecois French, as I am trying to familiarize myself with its differences from the French of France. Their magazine selection is great and I've found the staff to be quite helpful.

Review from Alexis M.
What horrible, horrible customer service! I never received notification of the item they shipped arriving, and when they told me it was unclaimed and I tried to get it reshipped (and offered to pay the new shipping), they instead refunded me my money minus the shipping and 10%! Why should I have to pay a huge amount for something I never received? They were totally unwilling to work with me, rude, and certainly don't care about their customers. I will never buy anything from them again!

Review from Mathieu B.
Roxboro, QC
A Dollarstore for rich people. They sell a lot of «cossin» (ko-sain). Which his a Quebec term (Joual) for CRAP! Lot of papers, Boudha statue to the expensive Journal made with a leather cover. I might hear you say: yeah! cool! superb! awesome! But this is a Library. In Quebec, Library receive subvention from the goverment to promote culture. Therefore, this store as basically 50% of the store for «cossins» and the other for 40% for books and a small section for CD and DVD. As an ex-librarian I can tell you that the biggest issue with big company like Renaud Bray and Archambault (which is the main competitor ) is exactly that: Selling Quantities before Quality. They prefer servant with next to no knowledge that will execute the task over knowledgeable personal. Therefore it makes it harder and harder to get small author with small quantity distributed in those library.
