The staff is knowledgeable, but some are aloof on their phones at times. Great place for some old arcade machines but mostly catering to Japanese style arcade with DDR and other similar machines. Pretty cool. A good way to kill time if you're into gaming. Not alot for a little kid to do but there is skeeball and such

The reviews mentioning the rude staff appear to be true, based on my experience…read more I called about asking for a console cleaning and trouble shoot for a console not receiving power, likely a very simple fix. They wouldn't accept the job since the console had been opened in the past citing 'liability' concerns. The receptionist was rude and condescending during the encounter. This was a trial run as I planned on giving them a lot of console work in the future but I will be going elsewhere. I called another repair shop shortly after and they said they would take the job no problem and were able to essentially diagnose the problem over the phone (a solution consistent with that I explained over the phone). Perhaps Replay'd should adjust their policies and their attitude towards potential customers as they never know what opportunities may be lying on the other line.

We went on a Saturday evening and it was a full house - looked like an MTG tournament was going on. They serve food, snacks, and non-alcoholic beverages, so they got you covered if you want something small to munch on or a whole meal. We didn't order any food during our visit, but we walked by tables with fries, pizza, and other bites. It's easy to spend more than 2 hours here and have fun. The staff were very attentive and helpful. A cool activity to experience on a Saturday for sure!

With 3 kiddos in the tween age group, this is a convenient option for them to spend their allowance without having to drive 30 minutes away. The problem is that the store staff is pretty unwelcoming towards kids. We've been a pretty good customer over the course of many visits. The treatment has been pretty hit or miss from dirty looks thrown at the kids for picking up items they intend to buy to feeling like we are mildly tolerated at best. This store seems to prefer the young adult demographic.

The young people help run the store, learn job skills, and work toward personal and career goals--and it truly shows in the care and pride behind the space. The shop itself is small but mighty. I walked out with four excellent-condition used books (three of which had already been on my TBR list) and somehow also added two cookbooks because... no regrets. Everything was very affordable, and it felt good knowing my purchase was directly supporting youth in the local community. If you're near one of their locations (I believe there's another in the Boston area), I highly recommend stopping in or checking out their online storefront. Great books, great prices, and an even greater mission--absolutely worth supporting.
