This place is a scam. Notice the price(s) on this toy. They are selling it for $36, retail is $25,…read morediscount is $15. Also, the owner will yell at you and her son (?) for all the hear.

Was looking for the perfect doll for my 9 month old daughter and found the toy spot, so I decided…read moreto stop check it out. I bought a Calicorn doll and was charged $26. I went home and found the doll is a Walmart doll for $10. I called and the gentleman who answered said they do not price match Walmart dolls and if I was charged wrong I can get the difference. I decided I wanted to return the doll and the girl behind the counter seemed fully aware that the dolls they sell from Walmart are marked up almost 3x's the price of the dolls. This is a scam and will not be recommending this place and plan on rating 1 star on other forums so people are fully away this place isn't a good place to buy from.

It was a very sad atmosphere inside. There were a bunch of claw machines that had next to nothing inside and were filled with cheap, useless knicknacks.

My grandchildren, like most children whose age is a single digit, think that every store should…read moresell toys and that more is better. They have a point. Grocery stores stock toys at kids' eye level. Target has several aisles stocked with toys that have their own television shows. Best Buy displays toys next to the checkout line. Gepetto's in Carlsbad is a small store stocked with top-quality toys, and in my experience staffed with people who are always eager to help and often able to help. The place is insane during the week before Christmas, but the staff somehow copes. I try not to go there at Christmastime. Shopping with a child for toys in a store whose inventory is not advertised on television is much simpler and more satisfying than taking the same kid to Target. Trust me, I've done both. Since in general the toys at Gepetto's are unknown to the child, there is far less of the "gimme gimme" that happens at Target. And whether a toy is still interesting and unbroken the next day is unrelated to its advertising. A 5-year-old in my family was astonished that there were no Minecraft toys at Gepetto's, and asked if we could go to the nearby bookstore because it would for sure have Minecraft toys. I find Gepetto's selection of child-compatible art supplies to be superior to what's in stores like Michael's, but they cost more. I don't mind.

I am a great fan of Gepetto's. It is not a toy store but it is a magical world of creativity…read more It is my first time here at the Gepetto's Forum. There are ample parking spots in the Forum. The shop is spacious and well organized. They have a lot of great merchandise to explore. For example; puzzles, board games, Legos, gel pens and other stationary items. In addition to an amazing collection of toys,stuffed animals, dolls, arts and crafts. The staff were very nice. The service was efficient. It is just an awesome place to shop at or buy some gifts.

I go to a lot of comic book shops and Comics-N-Stuff has the potential to be great, but just…read moredoesn't have the organization to get there. They have multiple locations and each one is packed with fun and interesting stuff. They have everything a comic fan would want. Comics, trades, shirts, figures, statues, etc. Problem is each store is just unorganized with memorabilia all over the place. It's hard to find things and stuff is out of order. There isn't a logical layout. The other thing that bugs me is pricing on stuff is just inconsistent or wrong. I understand marking things up for the person who might not be familiar, but you are only hurting your store in the process because like most retail shops people will just opt to buy it cheaper online(or find it for less at a different place in the mall). Also, there is dust everywhere. I'm sympathetic that they probably don't have the staff to keep everything tight and that the store can look disheveled due to all the foot traffic, but show that you care! They moved to a smaller location in the mall and the store does look better than it did, but the fact that Ninja Exchange is right next store and is wildly popular on the weekends should make Comics-N-Stuff take a long look in the mirror. They could be getting a lot of the Ninja Exchange people Monday-Thursday if they capitalized. Running a business, let alone a comic shop, is difficult in this day n age. I will stop in to try to support every now and then, but it is hard when you get the sense that the love isn't there.
