It was located further down from the current location but I always enjoyed seeing what was new, adding to my subscriptions and nerding out with the staff. Eventually I moved away for a while and had to cancel my subs and quit comics altogether to save myself the silly amount of money I was spending on it. That said, while visiting Bellingham, my husband and I popped in with our one year old and it's definitely become a general pop culture store, still focused on comics and a lot more clean and organized than it used to be. I say that with no shade to the previous way it was as that was so charming to me, just that it is more polished now. If I lived in the area, I have no doubt my daughter and I would come to this shop more as she grows up, hopefully enjoying comics like me! Since she's only 1, we just got her some small toys that caught her eye.

Reset Games is one of my go-to game stores in Bellingham. They have an amazing selection of games…read moreranging from the earliest Atari games to modern console titles. Also, they have many different consoles there, and at good prices too! Sometimes they will have rarer consoles in stock like the Atari Jaguar or the Virtual Boy. They also have great deals on consoles. The prices may seem higher than market for the consoles, but that is because if you buy a console, it comes with OEM cables and controllers included, not 3rd party junk. For example, I got a VG condition non-yellowed SNES for $90 with all the previously mentioned accessories included. The staff are happy to accept a return within 30 days of a purchase with a full refund, which is very nice if an item stops working after a few days. As for trade-ins or selling, Reset Games will not currently accept defective/broken items as they do not offer a repair service. If you want to sell broken/defective items, go to Cosmic Games, as they offer a good repair service. The only slight downside is that the game prices are sometimes a bit higher than competing stores in the area, but their massive selection of games makes up for that. In conclusion, Reset games is a great game store. I always love stopping by. It's a must-visit for gamers.

I have gone there MANY times and got faulty items. We got 3rd party n64 games that are spray…read morepainted green with dead batteries so you can't save which we brought back multiple times. Every copy was bad. Every console I have gotten from there was busted and not tested properly. Multiple PS2 slims with dying disk drives. So, I went to their sister store down south. [over a 3-hour drive] Their staff told me they tested the ps2 they had. We drove back home and within 5 min the 1st controller port was bad and making the controllers loose connection and power. (how can you miss this if it was properly tested?) Also, that ps2 couldn't read disks towards the end of the disk. We have sold them a console ourselves and watched how they test consoles. They turn it on, throw a disk in, and if the disk reads, they just shut it off. There is no performance testing done, or everything I have said above would have been caught. BEWARE OF CONSOLES YOU BUY FROM HERE. ASK TO DO YOUR OWN TESTING BEFORE HANDING THEM MONEY, AS THEY WILL NOT GIVE BACK A REFUND, ONLY STORE CREDIT! They lost a customer that goes in spending 500 to 800 bucks a visit today. Their staff (dude with blue hair) told me they don't normally return consoles until I told him I spoke to someone in a higher position about this already, then, he wanted me to fill him in on what I was told so he could follow their policy better. Seemed like he was trying to cut me off on returns until I notified him, but I knew better already. Cosmic Games not only sell everything that Reset Games has, but they also do repairs, and their employees don't try to lie to me. They have made 1000s off of me and counting. Any issues I have had, they fix without charge as far as consoles or handhelds that I have purchased goes. Cosmic Games IS THE SUPIRIOR STORE costs more but WAY MORE accommodating and professional.

Yes, Eclipse Bookstore is exactly where I want to be. We meant to visit Fairhaven because we had heard so much rave for Village Books, but coming to this place first spoiled it. I mean, I hate to say it, but there's something very special about Eclipse Bookstore that a Village Books or any other larger bookstore lacks. I think it's the lone man as the owner, doing everything, from accepting the used books, to pricing, to stacking, to ringing up people, to posting public hearings about land use development in the surrounding area on the bookstore windows, etc. I love it all. Depending on what you're looking for, they may or may not have it. But they have a lot that is completely unexpected yet something you'll desire. The used books are worth going through, and the rare collection was worth a gander with prices that are steeper but when will you ever find a first edition of Jane Austen's book about etiquette? If I lived in the area, I would be a regular. I was told to only buy two books from here, which was a challenge. But challenge accepted! I left home with two books (and another for a gift for my friend). Whenever I'm back in the area, I'll get lost here.

So we headed to Launching Success and wow, did we have fun. I hadn't been to LS for several years - but was thrilled to find they still carry the same, high quality games, toys, books, supplies and other things to support homeschooling and home learning. Our first stop was at their fidget toy display, where my daughter picked out a couple of nice things to "play" with and help keep her focused during her days of Zoom classes. Next, we checked out some of their awesome art materials before heading to what I call the "teacher zone". This area of the store is FULL of all that cool stuff you see around your kid's classroom and you wonder where they got it. Well, they probably got it here! From posters to banners to you-name-it this room almost inspired me to return to college for my teaching certificate. (Hey, I said ALMOST.) While many of the items in this area are geared towards real classroom use (like signs about rules, or birthday lists) we found a couple of inspiring signs to put up around my teen's desk, as well as some organizational bins for pens and other supplies. Launching Success would also be an excellent place to buy high quality gifts for holidays or birthdays - they have a huge variety of games for all ages, and their prices are very competitive.
