A good place for buying/perusing a wide array of geeky wares and sports cards. You may notice various thoughtful touches throughout the building; the children's books section has small furnishings for little ones to sit and browse, and there is a decent amount of space between racks/shelves that keeps the place from feeling like a warehouse despite having so much product. It is also the one place in town I have been able to locate king-sized Whatchamacallit bars.

I can't really call myself much of a video game person especially if I'm 15 years behind on gaming…read moretrends (PS2 and the original XBOX to be exact). However, I didn't come in here for the video games. I came here for the significant collection of POP! figurines that they had displayed on a shelf next to the registers. This Gamestop is located in the Dimond Center Tower next to Bosco's Comics and Mrs. Field's Cookies. I never thought about collecting these pieces until a couple of co-workers had me started after seeing their collection of extensive and far-reaching pieces of the pop culture world that they were modeled after. Everything from movie characters, musicians, UFC fighters, WWE wrestlers, TV series, late night personalities, NFL players, and game show hosts among others had piqued my interest and I decided to start a 1980's era collection to display on a shelf in my office area. The employees here were very friendly and easy to talk to as I approached them. When I asked about the POP! Figurines, they became excited and started talking in great detail about what they had in their inventory and what to expect for new pieces being released in the upcoming months. I asked for any pieces from the 1980's and the manager immediately showed me several, pointing out that some of them were hard to find and only available in their stores. The ones that really stood out were Clark Griswold from National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, a classic that shows him holding a cup of eggnog in his hand with the Christmas hat, Hans Gruber, the villain from the first Die Hard film, Josh Baskin, Tom Hanks's character from the movie Big, showing him in the memorable scene playing on the giant piano, and Hannibal Lecter from Silence of the Lambs. Although the movie came out in 1991, the detailed figurine showing him in the orderly's uniform holding the razor blade was something I couldn't pass up. I was expecting to pay full price for all of them, but I lucked out when the manager told me that two of them were on sale for $5 each down from the regular price of $11.99. I was also given a list of the upcoming POP! Figurines through the end of the year and had the option of securing any of them on presale in case they sold out quickly. Some of the upcoming figurines included Maximus and Commodus from the Russell Crowe movie Gladiator, Arya with the 2-headed spear, Bran the Broken, Theon Greyjoy with the flaming arrow, the Mountain, Sansa Stark, the Night King with the dagger, and Jon Snow from the final season of Game of Thrones, James Bond characters including Baron Samedi from Live and Let Die, Le Chiffre from Casino Royale, Honey Ryder from Dr. No along with Daniel Craig's Bond character from Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, Rob Zombie, Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and the Earp brothers from the Kurt Russell movie Tombstone, and Xena: Warrior Princess. It was a great start to a new hobby thanks to their help.

Went in with my spouse to do some trade-ins and potentially pick up a newer console; we had looked on GameStops own website ahead of time to get ballpark prices on what our things might be worth, in particular some consoles. When we walked in, there may as well not have been anyone behind the counter. We had to initate all conversation and were treated very rudely for...asking the person behind the counter to do part of their job? They needed to test the consoles, which is to be expected, but we got to stand in silence the whole time they did so, while other customers began to also wait to be checked out. The prices we were offered were just shy of highway robbery- 12$ for a perfectly functional PS4, for starters. Mind you, they were selling the same console in a case not 2 feet away for nearly 150$. I'm never, ever expecting my moneys worth when making a trade in but good lord, not even 20$? After standing there in complete silence and being glared at for nearly 20 minutes, we took our stuff and left. You'd be better off selling on Facebook or frankly, throwing your things to the curb. At least the curb won't treat you as miserably.

They have a sign saying they don't take trades in on Wednesday so I went in on Thursday & they said they were down for the entire next week. What should've been a 1 time task turned into a multi- week endeavor. They can't tell you what you recently bought (god forbid you're looking for the next in a series). They can't tell you at the counter to pay how much credit you have. Overall would not recommend as far as trying to trade things in. I also called and asked if they take puzzles (unopened) and they said yes, next time I came in I asked again and they said yes again.
