Editor's Review

Stepping into the Amazon Store at Purdue University is often met with mixed expectations. Some visitors have found it to be a convenient place for package pickups and returns, particularly grateful for the dedicated parking spots by Vawter Hall. Joe Ely raved about his experience, noting, 'In and out quickly, QR code in hand, to return a defective item to Amazon.' This quick access makes it a potential gem in the busy campus landscape.

However, it’s not all smooth sailing. Many customers have voiced frustrations about the store’s inconsistent hours. J. Andrew Sinclair expressed his disappointment after arriving, only to find the doors locked despite online listings claiming they should be open. This recurring issue of unreliable hours appears to be a major thorn in the side of this location. As Greg Eakins lamented, 'There was a huge group of people outside waiting for them to open.' Such experiences leave visitors feeling exasperated and questioning the facility's reliability.

It seems this facility shines in its promise of convenience but struggles with execution, leaving a trail of confused and disgruntled customers. If you’re heading there, prepare for a bit of unpredictability.

Best for: This store is best for students needing a quick return location, as long as they're prepared for possible scheduling hiccups.

Facility is not open according to its Amazon hours on the Amazon website or the Google maps. I verified that they were open online only to find the door locked, and to be told that it would not be open for several days. Facility will not reopen until...

Dropped by at 9:45am (the door claims they open at 9) and they were closed. There was a huge group of people outside waiting for them to open. It looks like this is a trend. Set your expectations low and bring a good book to read if you need to visi...

Nobody was there during the business hours it posted. Three times in a row. What a joke! Why don't we simply close this store so that I don't have to spend hours waiting and hunting for a parking space?
