    So there's both good and bad here…read more The good is the selection is massive. Is floor to ceiling of collectibles. The bad is the place is a disaster. Nothing is organized, a lot of stuff is broken and all over the floor so you trip over it. The owner checks eBay daily and bases his prices off that, so nothing I is the same price two days in a row unless it's actually been tagged and he rips people off if you're not careful. Don't get me wrong, it's a neat place just be smart of you are going to buy something.

    I've been to The House of Fun twice since they relocated to this much larger store in Barrington…read more Although they have a wide assortment of collectible toys, cards, video games, and comics, it can be a "house of overwhelming fun" to some. This store is jam-packed with inventory stacked from floor to ceiling so watch your step! It's not uncommon to see piles of items strewn across the floor and walkways because they have already reached the storage limit on the walls and shelves in this newer facility. I primarily come here for the comics, of which they have both a new release wall in the front of the store and a collection of back issue bins in the back of the store. And so this place can be like a treasure hunt looking for that key issue or rare gem, making it a fun place to shop. But what is not fun (and somewhat annoying) is that there are no prices on most items. It was explained to me that since there are millions upon millions of things in the store, there is no way the employees can keep up with the impossible task of pricing everything. So, instead, they wait until someone is interested in an item and inquires about the price. Then the employee checks with the owner, who presumably looks up the current market value on the item and then puts a tiny white price sticker on it. But be forewarned--just because you may see an item with an attractive price sticker already doesn't mean that's the actual House of Fun price. House of Fun only uses one specific price sticker (a small white rectangle in a particular font), and any other price tags that may be present on the item are leftover from when the owner originally acquired the collection. This is very evident in their large assortment of back-issue comics. I learned this the hard way when I found a bunch of valuable comics with dirt cheap and multi-colored price stickers on them, only to be told that those prices were incorrect. Another thing to note is the prices they are asking for on the back issue comics are either wayyyyy overpriced or a few bucks over fair market value. So, don't expect to go diving in a one-dollar bin here. Unless it's truly an essential issue you can't find anywhere else, I would say look for it elsewhere. You'll find lots of gems and essential comics at the House of Fun but not have fun with their pricing (or lack thereof).

    In a world where you can buy any card or game online.... Top Deck Games is a breath of fresh air…read more There's something to be said about opening a door, searching for a game, TCG, heck.. even a new card binder and finding what you need right in your neighborhood. The hunt is much more satisfying. The space is super clean and the staff is friendly as well. Their raw card collection is huge and I've been really enjoying all of the campaign books available. All around good vibes and pricing and it's fast becoming my daughter's favorite place to spend her allowance.

    Top Deck is certainly one of the LARGEST trading card shops in south Jersey. The floor is huge, and…read morethe amount of table top games and accessories that they sell really don't come close to some other shops. The location is convenient right off of 295, and it's definitely a fun place to visit! In contrast, the prices here are quite astronomical at times, especially if you are in the market for anything related to Pokemon TCG. Ever since COVID-19, prices have skyrocketed due to the scalping crisis. Top Deck Games is no stranger to listing their Pokemon inventory at scalping level prices. If you're looking for anything that is unrelated to pokemon, I'd certainly give top deck a chance! The service here is hit and miss. Some days they are on the ball and others you're a ghost in front of the counter. This also relates to how busy the shop can be as well. So in summary, awesome place to look around and pick up a board game or two. I just wouldn't advise you to come here for Pokemon.
