Small card shop, but huge inventory of cards and products!…read more My gf bought me some prizm basketball, and prismatic packs from this shop, and she pulled a Wemby /75 and eevee master ball! We didn't have any penny sleeves or toploaders so I needed to come back. The owner was very welcoming and knowledgeable. The prices for everything was also very competitive and reasonably priced. They also do grading services which I can't wait to bring my cards in to get graded! Overall the experience was great and I can't wait to come back here!

Best Buy was out of stock so I went here thinking I would end up maybe paying 30, but I didn't have time to check walmart and this place was close by where I was going. The blaster of basic 2023-24 was FIFTY BUCKS HERE! I paid up because I didn't want to leave empty handed, but just to give you an example, the same box I picked up later that week at Walmart for my kids and it was 25 -- point is that this was not even an in demand or rare product but I got scalped paying double here... WHY?!? I don't get how places stay in business charging this much, maybe there is some volume discount I'm not aware of? Anyway they had a good selection and are nice people working there so I'll give em 3 stars for that, but as far as the prices, NEVER AGAIN!

Mero is one of my favorite stops for Pokemon in Ventura County! They have huge walls of nicer…read moresingles and slabs as well as sealed products. I can always appreciate the range from near mint to heavily played singles with fair pricing based on condition as sometimes you just want a card for your personal collection, not to ship to PSA. The brothers that run the shop have always been kind and I've had great offers for cards that I have brought to trade in. In addition to Pokemon, they have sealed Magic, Lorcana, and One Piece products for fair prices too. They have a wider variety of Pokemon singles displayed in binders, but upon my recent visit, I've noticed that they have expanded to One Piece and Disney singles as well. Aside from tcg, they also have older video games and consoles. I always enjoy my visit to Mero when I am in the area and love that hit of nostalgia when I stop by!

This GameStop is off Rose Ave and Gonzales in the shopping mall of Walmart, Right next to Daniel's…read moreJewelers. Upon entering I really notice how big this store is. It was super clean, highly organized and attention to detail! There are so many games to choose from!! Xboxs, PlayStations, Nintendo switches, ect and top of so many games! This is the gaming world!! Their price points are reasonable for gaming. They also have many funko pops, accessories, shirts and other awesome things too!! So I came in to buy an Apple Itune giftcard along with some questions. Jadon was helped me ring up my purchase. I asked him about all of the Nintendo switches. He so very knowledgeable, kind,sweet,caring, super down to earth, genuine. Jadon really has this very positive upbeat personality about himself. Joshua came in to work When I was talking and had some extra add conversations about the switch too! I really appreciated both them and their sweet opinions and about these consoles ! I would like that thank GameStop Oxnard for giving me this wonderful and positive experience! Would love to Thank Jadon & Joshua for helping me out! I'll tell all my Family & Friends to come here! Please be Respectful, Kind and Courteous to these awesome workers!

I usually end up here because my husband…read morewants to find certain types of cards, but I like browsing through their funkos and clearance section. Every time I've been here, the staff have been extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. They will take the time to patiently explain the deals they currently have, what they don't have and have in stock, and suggestions on how you can get your game/cards/items as soon as possible. I've never encountered mediocre service at this store. It's always been above average to exceptional. The prices can be ok to great depending on what promotions they have going on, but luckily a dedicated staff member will help you get what you want or want adjacent at a reasonable price!

They also host musical events and charity events for the community, Oxnard simply would not be the place it is without these guys. I've actually known the owners for a while too, the kindest and fun guys you'll ever meet, shout-out Fusion and Elliot. (don't forget Alex) So if you're ever down on A Street in Oxnard, look for the big blue question mark, for it's not just a store, it's a home. :3

Stopped by the Mystery Shop today and was pleasantly surprised to see a big selection of products…read morefrom comics and graphic novels to trading cards and various toys. The last time I came a few months back, there seemed to be ongoing reorganization so I wasn't able to see everything they had to offer. While I could see it being a nice place to play for some especially with it boasting many weekly events for a variety of card games (Lorcana, Yu-Gi-Oh, Magic, Pokemon), I felt the sealed and single selections were both pricey and less plentiful compared to what I have seen at other shops. Some services such as the charging station are great to offer especially when games of commander can take up a an hour or more!

We celebrated my boy's 10th birthday here. Michael, the owner and operator is beyond friendly,…read morehelpful and accommodating. There's a back room that is designated for the party only. A birthday welcome sign was displayed, which I thought was a really nice touch. We were actually a few minutes late to our own party and Michael made sure that our guests were welcomed and could start playing and having fun! The price is extremely fair! He doesn't charge any additional fees to allow us to bring our own food in for the party, which was really nice because most places will. The boys had a good time bouncing back and forth between the VR and the other PlayStation games. It was perfect place for our celebration and we highly recommend it. It's also a great place for drop in while you're doing shopping at the mall if you have older kids!

This location isn't as busy as Newberry Park so if they run out of say ARK-M, then try this Ventura Location. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and always happy to help. If your new to the comic world or advanced, you can learn a thing or two from the staff. They're living the life!!!! I highly recommend Arsenal Comics in Ventura if you're in the area.

Humble, unpretentious shops that feel connected to the broader Magic community matter…read more Magic shops are a lot like bars--there's more than one, each with its own charm. People go to play different formats, and the owner sets the tone and is the barometer for the "weather" in general. Friendly, welcoming shops tend to build stronger smoother sailing communities. I didn't get that here. When I asked about local EDH events, I was told there's one Commander night. That's cool but I only play edh so I'm curious for other areas. When I asked about the broader EDH community, the owner was dismissive and overly corrective. It felt closed-off rather than supportive, especially when he made it clear he doesn't promote anything beyond his own store. That approach doesn't work for me. I prefer spaces with a more open-minded, generous vibe, not a "there can be only one" mentality. As an old-school player, I value basic respect and being part of a positive, inclusive nerd community. I'll look elsewhere.

This location being in the mall and given how Gamestop runs things now, I'm not surprised it…read moreclosed. The store itself was cramped, but it had the usual that all Gamestop shops have. It's what the higher ups make employees do to try and force memberships rather than focusing on video games that makes me not care for Gamestop much anymore. Now that this location is closed, I can tell my experience without risk of them being fired. When I purchased a figure from there many years ago, the employee went on a long speech about membership. I declined and started to walk around the mall with my bag. I read the receipt and realized the most expensive item, the figure, hadn't been rung up. I don't like theft, regardless of if it's from a mom and pop shop or a chain. I don't know if that would have gotten him fired to let a $100 item go free, but I went back. Do better Gamestop. Membership sales shouldn't be the focus. No employee likes having to make a quota. My mom had to deal with that crap with Barnes & Noble.

Thanks to my husband, I've probably been to most of the GameStops in Ventura County. Surprisingly,…read moreI've never had an unpleasant experience at any GameStop I've visited. This GameStop is on the second floor of the Ventura Mall. Unless he/she is swamped, the staff always greets people when they walk through the door. The staff always explains their membership and new products with patience and knowledge, and take the time to find cards or items you're looking for. Besides video games and consoles, there are plushies, T-shirts, Funko pops, and other miscellaneous items here. The store usually prices items high, but you can sometimes find good deals. Also, it's almost always busy when I come in here, so GameStop is still a happening place!

A small but mighty bookstore. After years of driving by this spot, what finally brought me in was…read moreseeing them on social media. I stumbled upon a post they did which was in solidarity with a group of people and seeing that our values were aligned I knew this was a local small business that I needed to be supporting from here on out. I came midweek to shop and look around, and I had a great experience. It's a smaller bookstore, but they did have a lot to choose from! I was especially happy to see that they keep up with new and trending authors/books that come out. But of course, they also had a broad selection of every type of book you could think of. Being a smaller independent bookstore they don't have mass quantity though so if you find a book you like you should grab it because they only have a copy or two of each. I found that the pricing was comparable to anywhere else but again when you shop here you're supporting local small businesses so even if it was a little pricier, it would be worth it to me. They had a cute child's/kids section in the back so it would definitely be a great place to bring your little one to look around or read a story. The vibes are welcoming, but I also appreciate when staff leave you to look around without standing over your shoulder. The gal working behind the register was super nice and checked me out with quickness, that I was in and out without issue. Nice people work here, they have a decent selection and overall it was a cute little shop that I will be back to support again soon.
