I was impressed by their selection of print patterns (not just for knitting and crochet, but all kinds of fiber arts), buttons, and of course, yarn.

Awesome comic book store. Exactly what I was looking for during my unexpected free afternoon during…read moremy Boston visit. Walked in and one of the employees asked if I was new there. I said Yes and he then gave me their quick spiel. From other reviews it looks like 20% off isn't new and has been a thing for a very long time. I didn't find, in general, their prices to be too bad. A few books maybe but they're smack in the middle of the city in a high tent area and their selection of pretty much everything is great, do slightly higher prices are understandable. Highly suggest a visit for current books, back issues, slabs, and I think lots of gaming stuff as well (I didn't pay attention to their non-comic stuff). It was actually fun for me.

Friar Tuck's is probably the coolest and bestest way to get comics in New England. Filled to the…read morebrim with with tons of comics starring characters from Spider-Man, Batman, Superman, and Captain America, to my personal favorites like Plastic Man and Slapstick, and even the cool indie stuff like The Mask by Doug Mahnke and John Arcudi and the ever so iconic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird (fellow Mass reps, lol). Rob, Yakov, Stee, Jeff, and Jacob are some of the coolest and most chill employees you can find. I'm probably gonna get my Spider-Man/Superman from there someday lol. And how could I forget the pricing of the comics? All of it is fair but they always have special discounts/sales and Rob always welcomes you with a.. "WELCOME TO FRIAR TUCKS!" And then the spiel is explained from there. Awesome stuff.

He told me interesting stories of some of the coins and examined them with a loupe and also had a scale to measure ounces of silver in some to see if even though they were not unusual clarity, they could be sold for their weight. A few days later, I rec'd a letter with a check for 1 of the coins that he had mislabeled and was worth more. I will be returning if I find any of interest. He has limited hrs, so call to get the recording of store hours. Not slick or gimmicky, just old-time, honest service!

If you have anything you need I get info on in regard to coins, currencies, etc I would start with google image search. Stopped and spoke to someone about a couple of unique gold coins I had where each face was written in a different language that did not use the Roman/ Latin letters. They gave me their business card and asked me to email them a photo. It did take me a little while to email it over, but finally did and then crickets. Months later I went back and spoke to someone else and brought one of the coins with me. They photographed it and said that I should hear back soon and when I asked a couple of weeks and they said should be sooner, but that the experts were working on a big auction the next week so it may take a little longer. They took my info and said I would get back to me. I said I would stop back in a month. Went back around 6 weeks later and the person recognized me and said they hadn't heard back. I asked them to follow up and they said they would. Never heard back so I stopped in again. They said they would get back to me. Before going to them, I tried to use google translate I tried using google translate to figure out what it was and tried a few times after.
