The IU campus bookstore is well stocked; however, it is small and overcrowded making it hard to view all the merchandise. My boyfriend and I came to purchase six sweatshirts for gifts. When I asked if there was a fitting room, the sales lady replied with a curt no. Obviously, customer service or being an ambassador for the University was not thought of when hiring her. We told the sales lady we had come from Georgia for Thanksgiving and were visiting IU for the first time. We also told her we were planning to purchase a few sweatshirts as gifts and really needed to know how they fit. She had no compassion even when I asked if I could go try them on in the restroom. Unbelievable! I had to try on the sweatshirts on top of the sweatshirt I had on. In addition, there was only one mirror in the whole store. There were also several other customers wanting to try on items. Of course, after we made our selections and went to the counter with all six $55 sweatshirts, the sales lady was more than gracious.

I accidentally wandered into this shop while killing time yesterday afternoon. I was impressed by…read moreall of the different types of books. Every time I looked through a shelf, I seen something new. There were a lot of different genres, however I don't think they were organized very well. It was also difficult to walk through the store as everything was pretty tightly packed in. The lady who checked me out was very kind. We had a brief discussion about the interview I was waiting to attend. She told me to remember to just keep breathing, which I appreciated greatly. Besides that interaction, no one else in the store talked to or approached me. It would have been nice to be welcomed in. Altogether, though, a very sweet shop ! With a ton of variety.

Packed to the gills with books! Isn't that what you want from a bookstore, though? Fallen Leaf…read moreBooks is wall-to-wall reading materials of all types: children's books, Western paperbacks, cookbooks, fiction, non-fiction, magazines, all of the things. This is the place where you'll find some used treasures, but also new books and and some rare and collectible books. Whenever I visit a new bookstore, I gravitate to the children's section. This bookstore has lots of children's books, from picture books to graphic novels. I saw some ancient Nancy Drew novels, with original covers. I'm not a Nancy Drew head, but I can appreciate a vintage mystery collection when I see one. One of the best things about Fallen Leaf Books is that they leave (leaf?) you the eff alone. I don't remember if anyone greeted me or talked to me, and frankly, I don't care. All I need in a bookstore is books and cozy nooks and quietude, and that's what you'll find here.

When I'm on vacation, I like to like up a piece of jewelry to remind me of my trip. This little…read morefamily-run, local jewelry shop is packed with jewelry - some older estate jewelry, as well as new pieces. I have purchased earring here in the past. The jewelry is neatly organized by type, stone, color, etc. Glass cases and walls are filled with silver and gold. The clerk/owner was friendly, knowledgeable and pointed out where to find the older pieces. She was happy to spend time with us or leave us to shop. I was fascinated by the large pieces of amber with little inclusions. I saw many quality pieces. Prices were reasonable. My husband liked looking at the sterling silver antique old and ends. A newspaper clipping on the wall tells the story of owners, Al and Carol Drake. The Drakes have been selling jewelry for 50 years. Al is a silver and gold smith. There was a sign that indicated that they repair and craft jewelry, but there is a three month wait because they are busy. We found free street parking nearby (which was a miracle). This shop is definitely worth checking out. You're probably not going to leave empty handed.

You never know what you'll see at the Brown County Art Gallery! You might just round a corner and…read morebe struck with a beautiful vision -- a gorgeous work of art right in front of you. One of the best things about this little Nashville art gallery (other than being surprised to see such beautiful things in it) is that it's free to visit! Yes, you can just walk right in and start exploring. If you wanted to talk to someone, there's a booth with people in it who will, I'm sure, tell you informative things about the gallery. I wouldn't know! I don't like to talk to people at art galleries. I'd rather just experience the art myself, quietly, and form my own opinions. What I do know about this art gallery is that it's almost 100 years old, as of this writing. Nashville, Indiana, is a hub for art, and I would consider the Brown County Art Gallery to be the heart of the area's art scene. You'll find work from local Indiana artists here, as well as artists from around the Midwest and beyond. The art ranges in styles from impressionist to photo-realism and everything in between. You can purchase original artwork, or if you're feeling less spendy, you can purchase more budget-friendly prints or postcards. There's something for every art collector here.

This art gallery, one of my favorites, has expanded and remodeled greatly since my last visit. Now,…read morethe galleries are upscale and the layout is easier to follow. We were immediately welcomed by friendly staff when we arrived and encouraged to visit the juried show. The gallery has been running by the Brown County Art Gallery Artist Association since 1926, making it one of the oldest galleries in the U.S. The gallery has moved around a bit since 1926, with the current location on land donated by noted artist, Adolph Shulz. The art is high quality by well-known and budding Indiana artists. Much of the art is museum quality. This is a place to buy real art for your home. Prices start at a couple hundred dollars and go up into the thousands. There were two galleries featuring art and stories about famous artists with Indiana connections. Currently, artists Nancy Noell and Gustave Baumann are featured. Some of the woodblocks carved by Baumann are on display. There is another large gallery with paintings for sale by local artists and members of the Association. A wonderful classroom/studio has been added to the facility. During the summer, kids can sign up for lessons. (But classes are full for 2024). There is a small gift shop with cards, books about the artist of Brown County and more. Visiting the gallery is free but they do take donations. They have ample parking in their private lot. The building is ADA accessible. I love it and will return.

Academic Scholarly Bookstore seemed like a very dishonest bookseller at the very best: after their…read moreprice gouging was caught, they removed Amazon customer review. Regarding their price gouging, this is what they had to say. Read their response below. Does it really take a million years to manually override a price "error" supposedly to have originated from the "automatic repricer"? When did the so-called automatic repricer ever become so widely used in pricing one of a kind set of used books? Did manually uploading a picture somehow triggered the automatic repricer? Why even bother to lie when such lies can be caught instantly? Could they ever do the very same thing to any of their walk-in bookshoppers: raising the penned in price by 150% on the spot they handle the book to the shopper/buyer/inquirer? Did they somehow fail to realize how offensive such price gouging really was 4 days AFTER receiving a customer complaint message? Update on 2/8/2023 Turns out the owner Joe decided to pull this book off Amazon and relisted it at $79.97 on eBay, which is $20 less than the jacked up price of $99.97 on Amazon. The book was sold on 1/31/2023.
