The staff was personable, informed, and engaged. The store was packed with collectibles, comics, back issues, toys, just what you expect from a shop. In the time I spent there shopping three regular customers came in and we ended up in exactly the kind of nerd out discussion you would expect from the name. I also found something I've been looking for for two years! Great staff, great selection, great customers, great store.

The Owner of the store ignored us when we entered and when we asked about where to find the book we…read morecame for he was not helpful. The organization of the store is horrible too with some comics being inaccessible due to shelf stacking. Also the owner made weird comments to his friend that made us uncomfortable enough to just leave without getting anything. Overall Id rather drive 35 minutes to a better store than this one.

I did not end up going home with anything, despite being an avid collector. Fun shop for a quick visit if you happen to be in the area, but I wouldn't drive 1 hr to visit again.

Hadn't been to an honest to God little collectors store like this in a long time. Reminded me of my childhood growing up in the 80s--early 90s. Had a great time talking with the gentleman there who had a good knowledge of the products and particularly his passion for vintage transformers. Got several cool items at a good price.. Some I didn't even know existed. He showed me around and we talked a lot. Customers came and bought and went while I was still there. Loved the vehicle outside converted to look like transformers ambulance. Highly recommend collectors stop by.

Green Shift Comics - Tampa's Hidden Gem for Comics & Guitars!…read more If you're a comic fan--or just want to check out some cool guitars--Green Shift Comics is a must-visit. This shop is a goldmine of comics. Whether you're hunting for the latest releases or a hard-to-find classic, Green Shift has it all.

Having visited both before and after he bought the store, I can say his reorganization and attention to detail transformed it into an inviting, well-curated space. In an era where comic shops can feel sterile or corporate, Green Shift radiates personality and heart. Do yourself a favor and check them out--you won't be disappointed. 5 out of 5 stars!

The vinyl prices were a bit higher than I'm used to compared to other shops I've visited but they had a great selection. They had a good bit of CDs, as well. The book selection was pretty good. I didn't get to spend as much time on that side but there was a lot to see and choose from. The bathroom was clean. The baristas were kind and checkout was seamless. I highly recommend spending some time here.
