I walked in with my family of 6 looking for a specific item and protective case to house one of my children's oversized trading cards. We were immediately greeted upon walking in the store with a smile, handshake, and willingness to help us. Extremely welcoming staff and beautiful interior and shop. It is clear why sharp corner is still thriving today, some more than 20+ years of me leaving the peninsula and then returning recently with a family.

This shop in the very nice shopping center of Del Monte has a ton of product, but like most comic…read morebook stores, the business is moving away from that business and focusing more on collectible toys. It's a shame because there are so few good stores in this area. I went to all of them today and didn't find one that was a strong comic book store. If you like certain collectibles, you'll find a lot here, but if you're looking for comic books (which this store is listed) then you might be disappointed. SELECTION: Definitely packed full of product but I find that these types of stores in the end don't do well because product that doesn't sell sits on the shelves so long they gather dust. Not focused enough. And the comic wall isn't well stocked. SERVICE: Helpful in explaining why there isn't a lot in stock but too bad because this place has lots of potential. In a waning market this is the most well positioned store to do well. If they only did an ordering service, it would likely solve some of their problems. COST: Reasonable but not exceptional. Instead of going the collectibles route (I would definitely have collectibles but not the fad kind), I would go the comic book / gaming / sports card route. Card collectibles are of high value and take up so very little space. Funkos are great, but to give them shelf space they aren't worth it.

Owner definitely has an issue that needs to be resolved immediately. As for the contents of the store, it sadly left a lot to be desired. Comics were not sorted alphabetically on the shelves, older guy sitting behind the counter made it clear he did not want to be bothered, and some of the merchandise was WAY TOO expensive. I understand he has a shop in the Del Monte Shopping Center so renting the space can be pricey, but $30 for a "normal" Funko Pop that isn't a Chase, or special edition, is just plain ridiculous. Hot Topic on the other side of the shopping center had the exact same Funko Pop for $11.90 My partner found a cool Batman graphic novel, but by that point I felt like I was gonna be sick due to the mold smell, so I had to leave. I hope the owner can get their priorities straight, and take care of the store before someone does get sick.

Im a sucker for fairies and unicorns and this store was not lacking, by all means. Fairie Glen collectiables, and how could I say no. The owner was there, a very sweet lady, whom, helped my friend and I . She told us that she had been in business for over 30 years. Her prices are so cheap compared to other places that I have been to . The particular fairy that I bought yesterday, only costed me $ 35 plus tax and normally sells for over $ 75. They have other collectibles including, light houses, firemen, bears, tuskers the elephant, and many many more. The owner even gave my 15 month old son a free little bear, bc he was getting a little cranky while I was shopping. I will be coming back here and also she said she ships. That could be very dangerous, at least for my husbands part . :)
