However rest assured, once you find it there is nothing you will want to miss once inside! Comic Books, Toys, Artwork, Statues...this place has a ton of stuff you just HAVE to check out. Prices are very reasonable and Action Figure Portal accepts cash, credit AND Paypal. Very convenient. In addition, if there is something you want but dont see, she can and will order it for you. The staff is super friendly too, but minimal. When I say minimal I mean the staff is one ultra friendly old golden retriever that goes by the name, Dude. He is the dude, the duder and the dudeliest. He usually just sits quietly but if your lucky he will get up and offer a personal greeting :) Check out Action Figure Portal asap and also check out thier fb profile for up to date items that come into the store. You wont wanna miss this place if you love this kinda thing. 100% worth the drive from Buffalo area. A++

The graphic novel wall was stacked and broken down by genre, which was very helpful while browsing. The man working was super helpful. He wasn't sure they had a comic series I was looking for in stock. He looked it up on the computer and went down to the basement to get me the issue I was looking for. I also enjoyed the zine wall as this allowed me to browse local comic artist creations that you would not usually find. I wish I lived closer to this shop. One of the best comic book shops I've visited.

The sales team is very shady with their tactics. I wanted to buy a certain item. I asked them how…read moremany they had and they said 1 only. I bought the item and a day or two later they list another one at a higher price and won't honor the old price. Then I buy the item and a day or two later list another raising the price again. They claimed to only have 1 yet in the past 30 days I've ordered 7 of them and there's currently another one listed on their website. Of course they raised the price 10% after waiting 25 hours to post it on the site. And of course they can't price match it because it's not within 24 hours. (The fact that they took more than 24 hours to post it on their site doesn't matter) My account rep said they'd price match a price within the last 24 hours. They take 25-26 hours to post another item in stock to get around that price matching. Very sketchy and slimy sales team. Reflects poorly on the owners and the company as a whole. I gave them 2 stars simply because the shipping has been quick.

There is an ice cream and chocolate shop downstairs. Most comic books are $5. And then there a bins with special ones, saw ones in those bins $8-150.

I've been to shops before where you get chastised for not coming often enough or not ordering enough books, but this spot feels like home no matter how long you're gone or how little you buy. Plenty of great recommendations come from not just the owners but other customers as well. I feel like every time I walk in the door I know I'll have a good conversation. My wife picks up my orders on the days I can't and she has commented on how friendly of a place it is. You won't find a better comic shop in the city!

And if you stick around browsing long enough, he'll tell you incredible stories about famous musicians and his friends in the business. The atmosphere in his store is like no other. Wayne takes pride in the memorabilia he has on the walls and shelves, as he should! Each piece he collects has a story that's worth hearing. The walls are covered in artwork by local artists, concert posters of famous bands who performed locally, and some really fun stuff too, like a drawing by Bono that his friend gave him! Cool Beat has an awesome collection of vinyl. Both new and old and all different genres. The store is super organized and every artist/ record was easy to find. Wayne is always working on getting new music in so always check back in from time to time to find something new. He also sells cds, 45s, posters, and other retro Buffalo/ music related items. His store seriously has a great collection and his prices are extremely fair in comparison to other record stores in the area. He also has a stamp card to get $5 off when you spend $50. All in all, Cool Beat is hands down the best place to come if you truly appreciate music and want to support local business.
