  “Customer service is what we have to offer. We’ll tell them if they can get a better deal at the school’s bookstore. Plus, we have a nicer environment here – we give out hot cocoa, we have a dog and nice music.”

  “Competition is fine, but the other vendors may not be buying back books for required classes, and may not be able to offer top dollar."
