The University of Hawaii at Manoa bookstore is located in the center of campus (hence the building’s name, Campus Center). In addition to the requisite textbooks, the bookstore sells assorted sundries; stationery; computer hardware; software and University logo items.
With the exception of a few sale items, most prices are list price or higher. Computer hardware (like most Universities, Apple has a relatively large presence) and software are available at educational discounts (with a valid UH ID). These discounts vary and you should not assume that the education prices are always cheaper.
Textbooks are conveniently arranged by class and section, and even tagged as "required" or "optional." You probably can get new books cheaper over the Internet, but it won’t be as easy to return if you drop the class.
