A great old school department store– Yes, it’s in desperate need of a renovation BUT how many stores like this are left in this country? Very few Selection is MUCH better than it was in years past(thank you Al Boscov for taking the chain over again)! There is a candy counter, a notions department and some of the funkiest lamps in their huge lighting section I’ve ever seen. Boscovs– Hope your around forever!

five stars for the AUDITORIUM. just ride that escalator all the way to the top and get lost in the auditorium. the most miscellaneous and discounted area of the store, you will find things you need and things you definitely do not need in this section. i think i left with an iphone charger, umbrella, extension cord, mugs, cow tail caramel and cream chews, dustpan, and so much more. endless treasures

I was ironically enjoying the bargains until the surliest cashier accused me of swapping tags on the $ 10 gloves I was buying. And then I left.

This place is a real barren dump, BUT look where you are, and that said this crap hole throw back empty slice of 50s esque slop isn’t actuallyisnt that half bad, although the top floor electronics dept is a total laugh riot, their a black mold stain leaking water from the ceiling onto the top of a displaying flatscreen down the back into a waiting assortment of buckets, only in this place folks, only in this place! Lol, wow Anyway after the flood the poor sweet heart cutie pie I was helped with in finding a pair of sneakers was ousted out of her dept to bedding after the basement was destroyed and is now I’ve learned is now in bedding on 4th from a very attractive other sweet one on the main floor men’s dept. How this place stays in business apparently isn’t just my consensus either… But very nice helpful whole hearted working crew here, if u can find them, the few, in a 9 floor sea of never Gunna be bought racks of clothes, like a zombie film small-town invasion set.

I discovered Boscov’s when my daughter started school in Binghamton. To me Boscov’s is almost as valuable as the first-rate education she received at the university there. Sure it’s an old-fashioned looking building, but if you’re looking for quality merchandise at good prices, you can forget about the atmosphere and concentrate on what you need. And the help is so… well, helpful! I have driven up to Binghamton a few times since my daughter’s graduation just to shop there.

If you want bargains, and high quality that often can’t or won’t sell — around this town — come here. Consider this a cut rate version of a NYC flagship store at 59 St. between 3rd to Lex. What you will not have are the bizarre affectations, often snippy customers and flashy one-upsman types of NYC. Ongoing promotions are well dispersed; Auditorium and Basement — top and bottom floors — will be a boon to the price conscious. Have bought a trove of quality garments and household items from their proprietary labels which often outlast even the so-called ‘best’. You most often will get what you want here rather than going out to Oakdale or to Vestal. Furniture is the only item which seems marked-up higher. Boscov’s is much better than what used to be an outpriced(unnaffordable) Fowler’s that had been here long ago. Lawrence Weinzimer

Physically and aesthetically, Boscov’s is at most a two star store. It could almost be a museum! You feel like you’re taking a field trip into the past. Clearly, they haven’t updated in decades, possibly ever. I don’t know when this Boscov’s opened so I don’t know if it was even around for Rod Sterling to see, but I have a suspicion that this is the department store that inspired that Twilight Zone episode with the living mannequins… However, once you get past that initial shock of shabbyness, the merchandise is fine. They have some surprisingly stylish finds mixed in with the elderly lady picks. I got a very cute pair of leather gladiator sandals on sale for less than $ 30. Pretty sweet. Bought my mom a pair of pretty purple jade earrings on clearance for about $ 20. Verdict? Don’t go out of your way to shop at Boscov’s(unless you’re into retro department store design), but it doesn’t hurt to have a peek around once in awhile.

Boscov’s holds the unique honor of being downtown Binghamton’s only department store. I wish I could say more positive things about it, but that’s all I’ve got. Department stores don’t seem to be in fashion these days, and Boscov’s isn’t helping matters. It looks like it hasn’t seen a renovation since the late sixties. Five floors of various merchandise. They have a little bit of everything; furniture, televisions, electronics, outdoor fountains, clothes, knicknacks, etc. I had been told they have some pretty good deals, but I really didn’t see anything that caught my eye. I like to be supportive of downtown establishments, but Boscov’s just doesn’t cut it.
