    Just left here. I was waiting in line and didn't want to use self check out because I wanted to be helped by an associate. This white girl that works there said "i can help you with self check out I said no and as I waited to be rang up by a person there was this short philippine or asian woman who was checking a customer out and after she finish she walked away from her register just to stand there instead of helping me. Then the other associate said I can help you. I asked about the 50% off sale on the Ashland cups and she had let me know it was not on sale and featured it was the small ones. She had a rushing aggravated tone and she was talking to the asian woman behind me like a child. RUN THE CAMERAS you'll see. It gave off when a mom drops a teen off at school and they act differently then when the parents around. The self checkout has given employees the chance to not want to interact with customers and just stand behind the register starring

    Update: had to remove a star sadly. Turns out this place really punishes you for paying in cash which is a real let-down for us working-class artists! It's all robot checkout machines that *dont* accept cash, and only one teller is (sometimes) there to let you actually buy your stuff! Can someone say "take my money?" It shouldn't be this hard... Also was disappointed with the hyper religious Christian music from Nov-Jan in this store. I don't need to hear country music about how "Jesus Kingdom Will Rule All" when I'm buying yarn, thankyouverymuch. So like, still a good spot (holiday season over, whew), but has a couple drawbacks worth updating. Original review: OK, the GOOD stuff! This place has gotten so much better in recent years. It's no longer just a "crafts" store. They have LOADS of professional art stuff here, walls of different paints, brushes, micron pens, watercolor paper! Hooray! I dont like the hyper expensive Blicks and so Ill be coming here a lot more. It is a crafters paradise too - I got 100% cotton T shirts for screen printing (all colors, all sizes) for $4.99, Loads of mini clear organizer bins for 0.99 each, some fun candies, cardstock paper, and other goodies. Everything you need for beadmaking, jewelry, screenprinting, some *awesome* woodshop crafty stuff too (I got a super quality pine wood barstool here for like $11!) They do promos a lot, and like NO JOKE ITS CHEAPER THAN AMAZON. For reals! so support having local supplies and glitter and glue up those rainbow fish halloween costumes or giftwrapping / small etsy shop business supplies. It's here! Until I buy it all mwahhaa One star off for the sorta-obvious - the bosses are underpaying their workers. People were nice, but there's clearly the corporate profit squeeze like darth vaders socially distanced remote choke hold going on from the CEO's beachfront mansion

    Come here for all your arts crafts and school supplies needs. Me and my girlfriend came here this past week and they had everything she was looking for to set up her classroom. The prices are very great as well and customer service is great!

    Every time I come to this location I get met with attitudes and people who don't care to help, that's if you can find them. What finally led me to leave this review was the employee named SHAWN. I wanted to buy something with cash but all the self service machines only take card. So I seen Shawn at the order pickup area and asked him if he could help since the machines don't take cash. This alone must've annoyed him because he replied with attitude saying he'd be there in a minute. I continue to wait, about 30 seconds go by and somebody asks him about the pricing for an item. He proceeds to talk with the guy, scan the item, and by now it's been about 2 minutes. THEN Shawn walks right past me and proceeds to help another customer right next to me at the self service station. Once he's finished with that guy he starts to walk towards yet another person at the self service station which at that point I had enough. I literally raised my voice and called him out for his behavior. Stating I've been waiting for him to help and he's just walking around helping everyone but me. He clearly had something against me or my cash. I would avoid this Michael's if you're looking for good customer service.

    With a name like that you know its creative. I needed a flag display case and my mum (with British accent) suggested this place. I was really happy she did because I don't remember the last time I was in a craft store. I think the Closest would be a Walmart (I know you read all my Walmart reviews). Anyway walking around you get more then just yard or fabric or needles. There's stickers, mugs, holiday decorations, school stuff, etc etc. Really a nice collection of stuff you can rediscover. Overall fours stars because they do have a lot of cool stuff. And you're probably saying "Well with a name like Michaels, why don't you give them a 5 hummm?" Because we don't like to brag. :) Now excuse me, me mum (with Canadian accent) is calling. M

    Scrap is exactly what you think it is - odds and ends of art supplies (some new, mostly used or…read moreopen) for the crafty. There is also some original art for sale. Something for everyone to scratch that creative itch. There's a lot going on here but it's organized by category which is helpful. Also, there's an option to donate here which is always great! Agree with other reviewers that the area doesn't feel the safest and is a bit apocalyptic (barbed fence wires with no one walking around) but I think it adds to the charm of the place. Just don't recommend coming here at night and take an Uber/drive if you can as it's located in an industrial area.

    I really love the concept of this place and what it stands for. Being able to donate art supplies…read moreand give them a second life is such a great idea, and I was excited to contribute. That said, my recent donation experience was honestly off-putting. When I dropped off my items, the person working the donation window was very dismissive and quickly waved me off without any acknowledgment or basic courtesy. It felt like I was being shooed away rather than thanked for donating. It might seem like a small interaction, but for a place that relies on community contributions, that moment matters. A simple "thank you" or even a neutral, respectful handoff would go a long way. I still appreciate the mission, but the experience made me think twice about donating again. Hoping this is something the team can address.

    It didn't blow my mind away like the other Sekaido location at Valley Fair, but they still have…read moresome pretty decent deals and a couple of gems like an orange Domo-kun vinyl figure, as well as the more popular and casual series (shonen slop lol). Staff welcomed us when we visited and let us know that they were available if we had any questions to ask them. There's various plushies from anime series and kawaii characters, keychains, lots of figures of different types ranging from unfortunately Funko pops to prize figures and scale figures. There's a couple western fandoms like comic book series etc here. Overall a decent stop if you're already at the mall and want to peruse some anime goods.

When I went to the Sekaido store at the Serramonte Shopping Mall Daly City location this store was filled with a lot of Japanese Animated Cartoon Figurines Like Sailor Moon & Her Sailor Scouts... When I was there I ended up buying myself a Sailor Venus Figurine and you can see the picture & video that I have posted Not only that they have a lot of Pokémon Stuff & A big selection of Pop Minis!!! If you collecting Japanese Animated Cartoon Girl Figurines Or Sailor Moon,Pop Minis Try Going To The Sekaido Store at the Serramonte Shopping Mall location is a very cool store to go to!!!
