Van Schaik Bookstore Rondebosch

This book store is conveniently next to campus, although I've found the books are a tad more expensive than the bookstore on upper campus. Also, they are frequently out of stock. Still, it is sometimes good to check here, as they may have stock when the bookstore on upper is out.

Brilliant service from Liya.She facilitated my search for Grade 5 books and communicated throughout the process.Their courteous attention to customer service exceeded my expectations.Thank you again.

I had hoped that this store would cary more ranges of text books relating to teaching English as a Foreign Language, but they only carry the one for a language school in CT. Having said that I received excellent service from this branch, particularly Sharifa who went out of her way to get my questions answered. As a result, I bought the books from this bookshop even though it wasn't my preferred range. The service determined the sale, thank you for all your help!

VERY PROFESSIONAL. I phoned to enquire about a text book. The clerk/ assistant who took the call was do professional. Painlessly took down the details of the book and the next day I picked it up. Store has a good layout. It's clean. Parking is a bit of a problem (as the store is situated on a very busy road), but their service is awesome.

Half important school books are not in stock, online order system extremely slow. I get no response on my emails.Terrible bookstore.

Great service, I found almost all my textbooks for university here, it is well labeled so it was easy to find my section. The book they didn't have, they phoned another branch to keep it aside for me (a little expensive to have it shipped between shops).

For your stationery, kids school books etc go pop in.Friendly serves from staff.

I had the most pleasant experience talking to Fagma over the telephone about a week ago, I needed to find a book for my daughter and she gave me excellent customer service over the phone and also arrange a book via there Parow branch for me. I live out in Parow 5 minutes away from the Parow branch but they didn't have the book by daughter needed, again Fagma was very helpful and I had no problem coming from Parow to collect the Book from the Rondebosch branch and meeting Fagma in person was even more exceptional, I myself is in customer service and Fagma is a real asset to Van Schaik Bookstore/ Company. Most of the staff at the Rondebosch branch has been there for many years,Fagma herself being there for over 30yrs and another staff member I think her name was Fatima over 40 yrs. Imagine all those years of providing excellent customer service,and they pride themselves in what they do. Well done I'll definitely come out of Parow again.RegardsVictor

The guy who assisted me had no courtesy at all. He didn't even give me a plastic bag b4 he ran off. I had to ask the other cashier lady who was more friendly and actually seemed to love her job.
