    This store really stands by its customer service and experience... came here months ago with a friend and bought a spy family figure in the case for my son. The staff was courteous and I live in the Bay Area so when I got home to give it to my son unfortunately the box was empty and they didn't realize the box was for the toy in the case. I don't come to sac often and when I called them I let the know the mistake and they told me it would be under the counter. I finally remembered to pick it up on my trip today and unfortunately they could not locate the item -- it's been about 2 months. They offered to refund me and give me any figure in the same case (the potential cost was higher) and even offered to try and find me the item or a similar item. This above and beyond and I face timed with my son and chose a different item and I declined the refund since this was also well above my expectation. They still threw in a bunch of extras and were very courteous and apologetic. I am not current on a lot of the anime today or the comic books but I do take my son to comic book and anime and events and this community is really great. This place is a great local hobby/comic book shop and I wouldn't think twice about coming here. Thanks so much for adding to my sons collection :)

    Thank you guys! Very professional and upfront. I couldn't be any happier to finally open this product.

    Thank you guys! I couldn't be any happier. I was trying to get my hand on this product and you were very professional/helpful.

    First time to visit this place and I loved it. I actually came for the free comic book day and got 4 free comics. The place was nice, orderly and spacious. There's a lot of comics to choose from and I saw a lot of great deals.

    Collected during the 90's, mostly Jim Lee work and Silver Surfer. Finally came back, after building my career and family. This store blew me away- clean, organized, there was a wealth of all the major genres and mediums. Surprised to see some of the mixed reviews here on the customer service- my 1st experiences here were very welcoming so I picked up a few gems. Highly recommended!

    I remember as a kid I was an avid reader,but for some reason I thought comic books were really lame…read morebecause they weren't real books.They were just pictures with a few words and wasn't even close to what I was doing knocking out multiple books in a week. Sometime in my 30s though that all changed.As I got older,I came to appreciate the high quality of the medium,in regards to being able to have such complex stories work with such high quality artwork. So I started collecting comics and became a frequent customer to A-1 Comics in Roseville located on Sunrise Avenue. The top two things I love about this location are as follows. -Their employees really give excellent customer service.They are very helpful in assisting the customers in finding whatever they are looking for. A-1 has two other locations in the Sacramento area and multiple times I've been in Roseville and they were sold out of what I was looking for and they took it upon themselves to call their other locations to check if they had what I wanted-that's excellent customer service. -Second thing that truly stands out for me about A-1 is they aren't cheap on inventory-every week when new releases come out,they always have plenty of copies so that as many customers as possible have a good opportunity to get the issues they want-not all comic shops do this-others keep such limited inventory that they sell out too fast-A-1 rarely lets that happen. This Roseville location pretty much has its own parking lot,so there's always has plenty of parking available for its customers. In closing, I really do recommend this shop for all your comic needs-it's a pretty awesome place filled with pretty awesome employees and I always look forward to heading back out there.

    I visited Half Price Books, the staff assisted me in everything I asked of them on June 6th, 2026…read more It was a busy Saturday afternoon. Liam and Kate were so helpful and went above and beyond at my visit yesterday. They gave me a time frame of when I would be called via the intercom. The selection of books, CDs, DVDs, video games, and other exciting things were all presented with visual aesthetics. The rest of the staff assisted me with where the restroom was at and another person helped me out with where to go by directing me to the way to get there. Liam again helped me out with my books I placed on to the push carts. Kate was there to help me out at the cash register after I found a few books I have been looking for at other book stores and online. I would like to highly suggest any book readers or book worms, any other physical media, or nostalgic items to come to this store and support a great collection of not only books, but a very professional team and staff at this particular store location. A+++++

    I went here for the first time. I don't come out to citrus heights that often. Very nice store…read more Well organized. For a store called half price books, it sure doesn't feel like it. I understand stores gotta make money. Most items were close to retail. However, somethings I did like. Their graphic novels I felt were priced faire. Their dvds and blurays were priced fare. I would comeback again. While I had some minor issues on certain prices, I am glad to see more brick and mortar based stores still exist, Stop shopping on amazon and support real businesses'.

    I've been coming here over the past 20 years and I can say I have never been disappointed…read more The books are always in nice array, displayed so that you can easily find what you're looking for or even being enticed to look at the latest and new arrivals. The staff is always friendly and willing to help you whenever you need it. On this particular day I arrived, and as I entered, I was welcomed in, which I appreciated. I quickly went to look for a book (Red Rising) that I had heard was a great read, and when I couldn't find it on the shelf, I went to the front door and asked the lady how it was organized and she let me know it was by theAuthor's last name. However, on the way back to the shelf, I did find it on a table on the new and hot items list. Somehow, being in a bookstore with other book lovers, you just feel a different vibe that you don't feel when you're outside of those doors. But if you're looking for a cool bookstore, I would definitely recommend coming here. You will find what you need.

My family and I frequent this place and find that the time does pass by here quite quickly...quite enjoyably. There are seating areas around where you can take a book for a spin before purchasing. There's just so much to enjoy... The place is brightly lit and well decorated. Apart from books, there's a lot more other things you can buy...vinyl records, toys, even model kits you can assemble in your spare time. And there is always the staff, friendly and knowledgeable about the store and its merchandise. The items are a little on the expensive side, but the quality is worth it. Summertime in Arden can get quite hot, but a relaxing visit to Barnes and Noble here in the Arden Fair Mall area is cool!

There are Funko displayed every where. If you are into that they will probably have it here. I was looking for a specific Godzilla one but they didn't have it . I will have to buy it online. The staff greets you upon entering and there are staff around the store if you need help. Lots of comics too but I stopped collecting long ago. It was just fun going through the store and looking at all the stuff. There is a lot.

    I stopped by Comics and Anime to pick up a couple of Funko Pops and left genuinely impressed…read more While helping me, the employee noticed the series I was collecting and let me know they had one more figure from that line. They did not have to do that at all, but because they did, I was able to complete the collection I was searching for. That kind of thoughtfulness really means something to collectors. The staff were friendly, attentive, and clearly knowledgeable. It never felt rushed or transactional. It felt like the employees actually cared. The only minor downside was that one of the Funko Pops I purchased did not receive the fifteen percent discount that was advertised. It was a small issue and did not take away from how positive the experience was overall. Great employees and a store I will definitely return to and recommend.

    Scam scam scam…read more We were attending a small event at the mall. A staff approached my friends and I and said JCPenny was offering free photo special! After taking the photos. They attempted to charge us a bizarre package like $20 a person and some odd amount of copies. Huge ripoff! We argued the staff said free photos. And another staff said " no it's free to take" Maybe don't try to scam customers? An already dead mall and all you're doing is alienating people.

    Don't shop here we're watched on the cameras and girlfriend was harassed for having too many items…read morein the changing room. Instead of saying anything to her they went up to my 14 year old daughter and told us we all had to leave the premises because they didn't feel Comfortable with us being there. Meanwhile my girlfriend was at register paying while we tried looking for her in the changing room after she paid she went into the empty mall looking for us because we told her that's where we would be while she was trying on clothes mean while security follows us out assuming she was stealing for no reason no probable cause. Shame on JCPenney, its workers, and security in an empty store that's likely to close in an empty mall harassing people who are just trying to support your store a place we've shopped at since we were kids. DONT SHOP HERE. Let the store die with the mall it was completely empty we were the only ones in there on a Wednesday afternoon staff had nothing better to do than watch cameras and harass us when we spent money there. Don't shop
