Finally went into the new location for Mega Gaming and Comics recently for a game with some…read morefriends. Truth be told, I was not impressed. They have plenty of floorspace, don't get me wrong, and they have a lot of inventory, most of it locked behind glass doors that you have to call a sales person over to open. Seated there for a couple of hours, I found that the place is kept at a temperature that is a bit too warm. Combine that with the lighting that is too stark and the lack of sound proofing that causes echoes to occur everywhere, and staying within the building for any length of time is not a pleasant experience. I get the distinct feeling that this is a storefront where they want you to come in, select something, buy it, and get out. I felt no sense of community in the store, no warmth (except for the heat), and no real welcomeness.

I was honestly hoping the reviews from over a year ago about resealed Pokemon packs were fake or at…read moreleast an issue they may have fixed but boy was I incorrect. The packs are absolutely resealed and on top of that cost double what you get at the store. This shop is absolutely dookie bootie trash and I just wanted to rip something until I realized the packs were resealed. Do not come here for Pokemon cards.

I personally have to note this was the CLEANEST bathroom in all of the Coliseum of Comics I've visited in Florida. The price ranges were on par with all of the other stores in the state as well. The main reason I wanted to leave this 5 star review was for the young man working the counter in the front. Warm welcome the moment we walked in, attentive to any questions we had, and overall the KINDEST employee we have ever interacted with in the 9 locations I have been to. I unfortunately did not catch his name but he must be college age since he said he was getting ready for his midterms. We fan girled over Hunchback of Notre Dame because of my earrings and I told him to look up 1998 Notre Dame De Paris on YouTube. Having more workers with his customer service skills/ level of friendliness makes a huge difference compared to others we have been to in the past.

In general all of the employees here are kind and look forward to assisting you for any of your potential needs/finds in the store! Thank you so much Coliseum!!

I have only seen a $10 Below sign, so I don't think anything is above that price. This is a great place for :cookbooks, cell phone accessories, gifts, speakers, headphones, toys, make-up, etc. All prices are marked, and they have lots of choices. It is agreat store to just come by and look through, because you will invariably see something and say, "This is cool; I can use that!" They also have hands-free deivices for $5 bucks! I bought one, and it is 5x better than the $20 one that I bought at Best Buy! That one mounted in the heater vent, and overheated my phone in the middle of an Uber ride! Not good!!! It mounts on the windoww, and iis working fine! Get you some!!

I went inside and was surprised on how much of a variety they have for good books besides the big box stores. Literally walls of books. I also thought it was unique how they priced their inventory (paper slip in the book). The fact that I got two books under $10 was a steal. The cashier was welcoming and was working throughout the store. I didn't get any actual pics inside but I'll definitely be back.

I didn't really have a goal in mind for what I wanted, so just going through the stacks and browsing to see if anything caught my eye was the basic plan. Lots of people lined up, but I got through the line pretty quickly. Inside, the books are arranged in a reasonable order, and the different sections are easy to identify, so finding areas that interested me was not a problem. Coming across the cooking section, I found that there were a number of smaller cookbooks that I like to term as "Wive's Club Cookbooks" which can be some of the best/most entertaining cookbooks you can come across due to the nature of the recipes that are contained in them. You never know what you are going to find in them, though recipes from the 1960's are prevalent and gelatin comes into heavy play. Good stuff there, and I stocked up on them. Overall, the Friends of the Library book sale is always a good thing to go to!

I went to the Coin and Jewelry Gallery in Gainesville, Florida with a box of half dollars and…read moresilver dollars. The lady I dealt with was the co-owner. She was very courteous, and told me the value of the monies as she sorted through them. Although the final amount was somewhat lower than I had expected, I was okay with that, as I understand that they need to make a profit too. I went to this business a week later with smaller denomination coins as well as antique jewelry and paper currency. The young lady that waited on my was unfriendly, and went through my coins more quickly that I would have expected. She didn't mention the price they would be paying for the wheat pennies, large pennies, Indian Head pennies, Buffalo nickles, Mercury dimes, etc., until after a co-worker had taken my cigar box of wheat pennies ran them through their coin counter. I had coins in folders. The best coins were in folders and the value of some of some wheat pennies was in excess of $25.00. When the young lady was finished, and the coins were processed such that I could not retrieve them, I was told that I was being paid two cents per penny, whether they were Wheat or Indian Head pennies. I am not a jeweler or collector myself. I was helping the family of someone who had recently passed. The 1930's antique gold wedding ring with four diamonds, brought me $40.00. My biggest mistake was not refusing an offer of one-hundred dollars for some Confederate paper money and fractional currency. The male co-owner said that Confederate money and fractional currency had no value other than historical or as a novelty. I found that when I went home and checked online, that the value of that stack of paper money was in excess of four hundred dollars. All in all, I found that in dealing with the Coin and Jewelry Gallery, I was paid more that five hundred dollars less than the true value of the money and jewelry I took to them. I thought that I had found an honest people to deal with, and had already recommended these people to several friends. I will be contacting my friends and letting them know that I was mistaken. If you want the true value of coins and jewelry you are selling, it would be in your best interest to NOT take them to the Coin and Jewelry Gallery in Gainesville.

In a nutshell - Video games, collectibles, dvds, cds, vinyl, used and new books, board games and even musical instruments. It's a great store to look around and find some things you didn't realize you wanted!

My daughter and I loved the variety and could honestly spend forever looking around. I also think it's really neat that they buy your items and resell gently used treasures, so you never know what you're going to find. It's such a fun place to shop if you're looking for a unique or special gift. There's plenty of parking, the staff always says hi when I walk in, and the whole vibe is welcoming and nostalgic. Overall highly recommended. Definitely check it out!
