Future Great Comics is a new local comic book shop in Hamilton. They opened up almost a year ago. I…read morecould not be more excited about it because the last time we had a comic book shop in Hamilton was when I was a small child, and then that quickly turned into a tobacco store of all things! It's so great to not have to travel at least 30 minutes away to get some fresh comics. The owner, Brian, is super very friendly and helpful. He is one of the nicest, coolest people you'll ever meet. He's not at all stuck up or rude like at other comic shops... *cough* Queen City Comics *cough cough*. They sell new comic issues and some back issues as well. If you don't see something you want, Brian will be more than happy to try to order it in for you if he can. He started carrying Invader Zim just for me and my husband. They also sell toys and collectibles, they have a good selection of Funko Pop figures. They sell graphic novels, manga, table top gaming supplies and t-shirts too. He is always getting some good rare stuff into the store that he found at flea markets or auctions. They also regularly hold costume contests, signings by artists, and other such events. They have a table top gaming space in the back of the store. I know he is trying to get a program started where people can come in, sit down, chill out and try out a table top game, and afterwards he will start selling the games in the store if people really take to it. Indeed, this is a godsend and a lovely, wonderful gem to have in Hamilton. Do yourself a favor and stop in, chat with Brian, buy some of his awesome merch, and maybe sit down for a game or two. This store deserves all of your business!! Don't let another comic book shop get away from Hamilton! Especially not an amazing one like this.

This FYE location is probably one of the better ones in the area, but that's not saying too too…read moremuch. They seem to have a slightly better selection of music than usual, but I have noticed that the section has been shrinking in recent visits. I have the same issue with the pressures to join clubs and sign up for things at checkout here that I do with other locations (I won't go on my rant again, if you want to hear it refer to my previous FYE reviews). That will always be my biggest problem with any of these stores. In the off chance I don't get the harassment at checkout I take note and really appreciate it. Seeing the direction these stores have been taking lately I can't see them being around too much longer, especially the locations in the more dying malls (like this one in Tri County). In the meantime I'll continue to attempt to patronize them..and regardless of my issues I'm sure I will really miss them when they are gone.

Here is another review I could swear I'd done already…read more I've been dealing with FYE since around 1998 when I lived in Florida and they opened a store (with video arcade!) near my house. Since they were in the mall, they were expensive. You expect stores in malls to pay extra for rent, etc., correct? I was amused by the "100% used guarantee" stickers on the DVDs and CDs traded. That's easy to guarantee that they were used. I suggested that they change the stickers to "Used, with 100% guarantee" but that still didn't make the point. I guess blank stares are what people on minimum wage do best in Florida. I saw a lot of them. Okay, so you're making your own right at this moment? Yay! I'm consistent. FYE, in my experience, runs great manager's special sales. When things aren't moving, they drop the price drastically, and you should buy it then, and don't look back. My first time at this location, they had some 3D movies for $19.99, which was about $20 cheaper than FYE, Best Buy, or even Walmart. You generally have to shop there regularly to spot those deals. Employees at this location are sometimes incredibly friendly and other times, very quiet. Does Tri-County Mall do that to a lot of employees? I see that across stores.

This location was the very first Half Price Books location I ever shopped at. I never knew the…read morecompany existed before I moved to Cincinnati, and once I discovered it I shopped here all the time when I lived nearby. That being said, this location always has a really decent selection of stuff to go through. I've purchased everything from DVDs, Books, & CDs to game systems and IPods here. The staff is always super nice and helpful. I've never attempted to sell anything to this, or any, location before. From what I hear, they really low-ball you (not just here, any location)..so, I probably won't attempt to sell anything to keep my good opinion of them going. As for a purchase only secondhand place..I love it here!

Perfectly priced records, cds, guitars, books, I even saw some cassetts in there. The bathroom was well stocked and clean. We were there to see local bands. What a great way to support the community!

They did not have a huge selection of clothes and shoes but did have puns of books, cds, videos, and many many houseware items. Today there was also a Christmas tree and nice ornaments for purchase. One Way Farm houses children and I believe the proceeds from the thrift go to help out there. We will stop in again as I am sure they receive donations often.

They had 6 shelving units and you could actually see EVERYTHING on them at a place. However, oddly, they did have lots of picture frames. Go figure. I usually go to GW for my dog toys, stuffed animals they can chew up, but this facility had basically none. The prices on clothing was about par for the industry and nicely displayed, but again, very limited for the size of the store. The one good thing is that on Sundays, they have 50% off the marked price for seniors, meaning people 50 or over, with an ID.
