    So, I was fairly new to comics a few years ago. I've been a huge fan of TMNT and wanted to support…read morea local shop for the run of The Last Ronin. The shop owner told me that there was a delay in shipment (which happens a lot) then when it came I ignorantly believed it was a first print (didn't verify, that's on me) and was charge $20 for it! Fast forward years later, I've let that go. I can't go back in time and change it. And I've decided to let it go and continue going to a store that over charges and lies. I bought the Invincible Omnibus volume 1 and it was clearly read and mishandled spine cracked and not in the greatest condition but still paid full price. I could've got it on Amazon for less, NEW. But once again I let it go. I've been going back every week to see if things change but they don't. Then this last time I went the shop owner was entertaining racist conversation from an ignorant customer. It's been over a week since this happened. I usually go in with my headphones because I get over stimulated in a small crowded space like this shop so I've never noticed this before, but that day I didn't have my headphones in. So, I heard everything. I have receipts showing that I've spent over $200 dollars in December/January at this shop and I regret giving them my business. Needless to say I will not be going back.

    If I'm being honest, I know nothing about comic books and the store you can purchase them in…read more However, my fiancé does and he loves Clint's. We went to a few comic book stores that were closer to our house, but he insisted that Clint's was the best. So we came and from what I saw, he was right! This place is HUGE.. so many comics to be read. Not to mention the staff was the most friendly and knowledgeable out of all the stores we have visited. They made me want to read some comics, and that's not a desire I have ever had. They worked with my fiancé to find what he was wanting and in his price point, and overall we had a really good experience. As we were leaving, one of the workers offered us brownie bites that she made, and if that's not the best customer service then I don't know what is.

    I've been wanting to come to this store for several years now, and I wish I had read the reviews…read morebefore I came. But honestly, I wouldn't have believed the reviews if I didn't experience it myself. I've been going to comic shops since the mid-eighties as a child, and I've never been to a comic shop where you're not allowed to come into the store. Especially at Christmas time. This is money-making time... But nope, locked up like a dog in heat during mid day posted business hours. Plus, the rules plastered all over the door to enter. If you're going to have so many rules, at least let people in the door. The owner is going have a heart attack once the street car line is done, and people want to enter her store and support small local businesses. This store is no Mile High Comics, they're going have to relying on more than just online business and comic book pulls of a handful of people to sell enough to stay afloat in this day an age. Very sad and disappointing, honestly. I was really excited to visit my first time.

    I was wondering around on a Saturday evening and found this local gem. What an incredible place…read more Enchanting. I immediately felt at home exploring the 3 floors. The books cover every subject. Some were probably harder to find. I happened upon a hardback about Eleanor Roosevelt and the years she spent alone after FDR's death. I also found a copy of an old magazine which explored all sorts of Tibetan culture. I purchased both. The book on Eleanor was found in the basement which is a bit of a labyrinth. I got tickled because I was entranced by the books so much that I nearly tripped several times on the very uneven floor. And it's painted all the same color so you can't see the weird level changes well but I was weirdly not even upset about it because it added some intrigue to the mystery of searching the shelves in the basement. Even on a nearly 100 degree day, it was chilly down there. Cool! Upstairs on the 3rd floor where it was toasty, I found the magazine. There were some cool lounge areas up there too. Record albums and a music section. I was mesmerized. I believe there were a couple of people putting out books but I'm not sure. I never asked anyone for help because I wasn't sure who worked there and I didn't really need any. The guy who checked me out seemed pleasant but I can't speak too much on the service except to say it was fine. I felt it was very acceptable to read through books even though they were for purchase and except on the crowded main floor, they had places for you to sit and read so it was even encouraged! I love that! The only thing I'd have liked that I did not see is a bit more merchandise that is book and reading related. They had a few Prospero Books tshirts and a tote bag but that was about it. I admit it wouldn't necessarily fit the vibe to have a section like this or maybe it could if done in a nonchalant way. The messages from customers written on the walls and shelves throughout the store along with photos were absolutely perfect! There were some photos that showed the basement before it became the magical place it is right now. Reading the messages and seeing the photos let me know I was in the realm of my people. All the books and magazines I saw were reasonably priced. I spent less than $15 on my large hardback and magazine. I didn't have nearly enough time to explore. I hope to go back!! You should definitely go and support a local bookstore treasure!!! I'm so thrilled they are here! We need more like them! And they carried ALL types of books. There is no censorship. As noted on Prospero Tshirts, "There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them." - Joseph Brodsky And you'll find in my friend's book, The Sun Does Shine, they can strip you of everything but if you have an imagination, they can't take that. Books and reading develop that ability. Let the words transport you! READ!

They have a large sign explaining where you'll be able to find genres between the three floors. I was pleasantly surprised to see the prices were also reasonable! Of the books I looked at, the most expensive price was $15 for a fiction novel. I highly recommend you take a stop here if you're in the area!

    I'm sick of your crap with inflating your already high prices on the spot. You just took the new…read moresteelbook for Tombstone and it was in my hand for $44.00 and then you inflated it to $70 at checkout. This is nonsense. You do this shit all the time and I am going to expose your dishonest and unscrupulous crap to everyone. You are not eBay. You treat your good customers like horse shit. I am about to stop shopping at your stores. I have been a VERY loyal person to your company and I spend major money at your location. This is NOT RIGHT. You never used to do this to people. And you know what? Every time you have been doing this you end up dropping the price again because this is a knee jerk bullshit reaction. This is not some rare item. You are as bad as a scalper on eBay. Dirty business.

    Walk in...three employees behind the counter "welcome in" one says, I wave and make my way through…read morethe store. The place looks absolutely wrecked. Dirty floors, aisles full of merch laying on the ground, poorly organized shelves, stacks of comics on top of the long boxes...nearly unshoppable. I made a couple passes through the place, I tried to look at the glass cases up front but there was too much stuff piled on top of them to see into it. What prompted me to write the review however, is the conversation that I overheard between the employees. A young man, clearly a "manager" that was on his way out of the business for good was essentially telling the other two that despite his best efforts to get the powers that be to give one of them a shot at running the store, the decision has been made to bring someone else in that was being trained at another store...and that was the right decision. I have 16 years in retail, 9 of those years as a General Manager, and the way that store looked, no wonder they didn't want the next manager to learn from the person in charge there. I was in that store for nearly 20 minutes, aside from the greeting, I was never again acknowledged, despite being within earshot of their conversation for the last 7-10 minutes I was there. When I decided to make a purchase (something to resell, believe it or not I did find a deal at a vintage stock) I stood at the counter for appx 90 seconds waiting for one of them to get me outta there, which feels like an eternity when you're waiting to give a business money...I then asked "why is the store so dirty?" The response was "we've been really busy." I'm sorry, but I don't believe you couldn't find a few minutes during your shift to tidy up a bit...like maybe the last 20 minutes or so? Now for starters, i feel bad for whoever is paying that crew to literally do nothing...for days...because the way that store looked, it hadn't been properly walked or reset in days if not weeks. Additionally, I feel bad for whoever is coming into that situation to turn it around...looks like it's gunna be a month of 60 hour work weeks to get that one ready for Black Friday weekend. Finally, to the young man who wanted to get a shot at running the store but didn't even get the chance to talk to upper management about it...you didn't get a shot because you don't care about your store. You may not be the manager, but you also let it look like that. Talent evaluators and decision makers know who has the passion for running a business. It's the person cleaning the aisles, vacuuming the floors and creating nice displays for the shoppers to enjoy. It's the one person NOT standing behind the counter negatively portraying the ownership in earshot of a customer. It's the person offering to help the only customer in the store. Nothing is given without being earned...I'm sorry you had a poor mentor, but perhaps the next one will set a better example for you to learn from. I look forward to my next visit to see if there is any improvement.
