You'd think a trading card shop would actually want customers, but I guess that's too much to ask…read more Walked in, and the staff acted like I'd interrupted something important just by existing. Must be tough, having to acknowledge people who want to buy things. Their Pokémon cards are way overpriced, too -- maybe they're counting on nostalgia to make up for the markup. I'm sure someone's willing to pay double for an IR/SIR, but it sure won't be me. Anyway, if you enjoy cold stares and empty wallets, this place is perfect for you.

They had scattered shelves all over the store with comics, new and old, slabbed and raw. But any sort of quality control was sorely lacking. Also, kids. I don't have an issue with kids running around however when I'm trying to seriously work on my hobby the last thing I want is kids all over, let alone them (and others) pawing through everything. Yes it's a large store in a mall so that's fine in general, just not my thing. They really should change the name to Pops and a Few Comics. That'd be more appropriate. It's not a bad place by any means. It's just definitely not comic book-focused. And I am.

For a large, full comic book shop, I have nothing good to say about this place. It is very…read moreuninviting, I didn't see or hear any employee when I entered or while shopping. A simple hello goes a long way, but the only person who seemed to maybe work here was engrossed in his phone too much to even notice I was shopping. This store LOOKS well stocked, but it's almost entirely an illusion. It's mostly funko pops, which is fine, but they are dispersed throughout the store in a way that makes finding anything specific impossible. The rest of the figures are old peg warmers marked ilup significantly from msrp. Speaking of wildly crazy markups, the huge selection of back issues are marked "minimum of $3" regardless of the sticker price. The back issues are clearly a large collection of dollar bin books purchased, never sorted, and just flopped out onto the tables like raw meat. It is impossible to shop the back issues unless you have all day to sort through the completely and utterly random boxes. This store lacks any charm, or charisma and seems to be simply a way for the owners to price gouge dollar issues to people who don't know any better. Even the issues being sold at a premium are 3-4 dollars more expensive here than online. In addition, there is signage throughout the store that warns shoplifters that they will be sued for 100,000 dollars if they steal, which i understand is a deterrent for what is probably a real problem, but phrasing it like this reinforces the fact that this place is only looking for an extra buck on goods that are not worth the price, nor effort to steal. If they would actually expend a modicum of effort to clean up the back issues, and break away from the cycle of price gouging comics to kids in the mall, they'd have a decent location and stock, but in the state it is in now, you're better off going to a swap meet.

This store is rather confusing, since it feels as if partial departments are throughout the store. I did not find what I needed, but in the clearance area, I did find some fun things. The prices were more "on sale" than clearance, but the price felt fair. In the sales floor, I didn't find anyone that could help, but at the register a very nice guy helped me. They have a self checkout line, unless you pay with cash. They are not set up to accept cash in the self checkout line. So, the place seems good and I will probably go again. It's worth checking out.
