No matter the movie, you will find it here…read more This shop is PACKED with movies, music, games, and much, much more and a lot of the time I'll leave with more than what I initially came in for. Not to mention I found quite a few uncommon and rarer gems here! Walking into the CD Exchange almost feels like walking back into the nearer past where dvd stores reigned supreme and I absolutely love the nostalgia. Funky music is always playing overhead, the place is so packed with movies that movie stacks line the walls, and the guys running the shop are always super real and helpful if you need anything at all. Even if you aren't looking for any one movie in particular, this is a great place to just go vibe and peruse to your heart's content.

Or if you think of a movie that you haven't seen in a while, do the same! If you aren't in the mood to browse, this way is much better. I did this for "Gone With The Wind" one day and I was in and out in two minutes. WAALA! However, if you want to browse, this place has an upstairs and downstairs packed with used CD's and DVD's. The prices are fairly reasonable. Used CD and DVD stores are probably going out of business because of Amazon and Ebay but let's hope this one sticks around for a while for the "get it now" instead of "buy it now" factor. P.S. I am a damn Yankee, so I am not a huge fan of Gone with The Wind. :) Oh Scarlett.

First visit to Big Alpaca Comics on Babcock Road and found the store to be clean and organized…read more They have a number of long boxes to browse through, although there were not many back issues, with most of the inventory consisting of newer books and recent releases. During our first visit, my husband asked about some blind bags and was told they were sold out. Shortly afterward, there was a discussion about another customer who had made a complaint and another customer who had made two previous purchases and whether that customer would be eligible to purchase a blind bag since they had only made two purchases. Hearing that interaction felt a little odd and contributed to an atmosphere that didn't feel particularly welcoming. As frequent visitors to many comic book and collector stores, this was one of the only times we didn't feel especially comfortable. Overall, the store has a selection of comics and plenty of boxes to search through. One thing that stood out was a sign stating that books cannot be read or looked through because "this is not a library" and must be purchased first. While that may be store policy, combined with our interactions during the visit, it made the experience less enjoyable than we had hoped being our first visit. Collectors looking for newer books may still find some interesting additions to their collection.

Is this shop a hero or a villain? Well after my first experience, I can enthusiastically say this…read moreplace is a hero! They had a great selection of comics. From cgc slabs, exclusives all the way to $1 comics. Loved the vibe of the shop. It was clean. The comics were organized very well. And when I asked an employee for help, who was in the middle of sorting comics, gladly stopped and happily helped me with my question. He was very helpful and kind. Can't wait to come back and pick up some more goodies. They offer some really great services when it comes to signatures and grading as well.

First off, I used to love going to Dragons Lair AR, they had great selection of MTG and Warhammer…read moresets, the staff was all super friendly, and I loved seeing Merlin. But the past couple years I've seen lots of changes. They don't get many new comics in, they never have enough MTG products or OP packs/boxes, and don't even have a limit to how many people can purchase? Their stock is also only plushies and overpriced board games and we really see no reason in shopping there anymore. Today we signed up AND PAID FOR for the Hobbit prerelease at midnight, me and my partner were planning on picking up the kit, and dropping from the tournament and making decks on our own, as I personally don't prefer playing with strangers. Usually we have NO issues doing so. When we went to drop out they had told us we were not allowed and we can't get our prerelease kit and extra packs unless we stay the WHOLE tournament... I asked if this was stated somewhere or a new policy and they didn't answer my question, talked to a different staff and had told me we can stay the whole tournament to get the box or get a full refund. I had asked again why this was not stated to us before we had signed up, or if it was on the website somewhere and the staff had again repeated that it's just not allowed. Currently my partner went to the prerelease, got his kit, and dropped out regardless. This whole situation was frustrating, as we never got a clear answer as to WHY we couldn't drop out when we had already paid for the kit and just wanted to go home? I definitely recommend everyone shopping at Dragons Lair Medical, or Heroes & Fantasies for comics or TCG.

Pink Zeppelin Books & Records is a solid spot to come in to do some browsing and even come across…read moresome local artisan goods too like jewelry, stickers, small decor, and even t-shirts. We came in after noticing the spot while having coffee around the corner. Outside the shop, before walking in, there are several bargain books displayed that help with a visual cue of where you should be heading to. Organization of all records was pretty decent. Everything is spaced out and no overcrowding of records to be found here. You can browse easily without having any issues. I ended up finding a great early Rihanna LP and my partner found a pretty awesome and good quality of an REM LP here too. We were very happy with our finds and the condition the vinyl was when we brought it home to play. Of course you can find bargain records here but their curated records that are priced $5 and up will be pretty good quality in terms of cover and record quality. I think I remember seeing nice juices, beers, and even some energy drinks here that are offered in a cold case? I also saw plenty of magazines and niche zines here that I regret not taking a chance on. You will find something unique and very interesting here even outside of records. I really loved the book area/nook as there are plenty of genres to choose from. I will definitely come back through to browse their selection in the future. I am unsure if they still have bands play outside or in but I would be down to catch some tunes too.
