It was clean, easy to navigate, super friendly and knowledgeable customer service. The prices are comparable to other retro shops as well.

Was in the market to purchase a vintage gi joe jet striker and found this business through IG…read more Shop sent me pictures via IG. Got in touch with the shop and gave me a price of $285 + $90+ for shipping. I was shopping around and found a brand new one on eBay for $250 + $22.95 for shipping. This shop kept reaching out for status on purchase to a point where they were nagging me. After committing to a new one, the shop responded "thanks for wasting our time." This is unacceptable behavior and all they care is about closing a sale vs giving right customer service. Avoid this store as their are others out there that provide better service.

I've been going to your store for many years and I had referred a friend of mine to your store…read morebecause of your wide selection of rare and obscure toys and things that you carry that that the other shops do not carry my friend had quite a few items to trade in including some vintage Star Wars Beast Wars action figures and a few other odds and ends the associate asks my friend what he wants on his collection and my friend throws him an offer of 2 to $300 and so the associate goes in the back and either talks to his manager or the owner he proceeds to tell my friend that they can offer him under $100 for the stuff so they ended up negotiating for like $70 and the guy said well most of your figures are incomplete they don't have their accessories I really felt that the offer was too low even for a business knowing that they do have to make money so then I hear from my friend that the toy box posted and bragged about obtaining his collection on Facebook and that really put a sour taste in my mouth and the sad part was is he was going in and tending on trying to get store credit so he could purchase something they don't do that I've never heard of it but terribly disappointed with how they lowball people my friend had a lot of stuff and the one thing that they said was the most valuable they didn't even highlight it on Facebook I feel like this is wrong and I feel like they should have offered him something more at least a credit they should make this right but terribly disappointed

This place is amazing from the welcoming we got To the service and quality of it is beyond any…read morestore I've been to! I will definitely be recommending this place to anyone and everyone I know. Just to see the interaction between the stores reps and my son to be honest and true. No other motive then to spread love and peace through gaming and collecting. Great place! Go check it out. Good to see there is still good people in the world

My husband and son drove all the way out to this store to be some of the first in line for the OP17…read morePre Release event and got there at open (2pm) for the event that started at 7pm. According to the details on their event description, it was first come first served. When they finally opened, they were told that it was already full because the store allowed people to sign up in advance despite the event showing 0 applicants. They were told to sign up on the waiting list. They were selected to play in the tournament (which was supposed to secure a box of OP17) The store failed to uphold what their event said and then refused to sell my husband a box after allowing them both into the event. The manager specifically told my husband "we will not be selling you a box". The store was rude. I can't imagine coming all the way back here for a store that is run like this.

If you're in or near the Phoenix…read morearea, RIP Valley is hands down the best shop for various reasons: -fair pricing -incredible selection -by far the best customer service On Saturday June 6th I went to the shop to browse some discount bins. Calvin and Emmet were working, and they could not have been more welcoming. They invited me to sit at one of the tables so I could watch the game while sorting thru a bunch of boxes. I thanked them for not sweating people who are just trying to find some gold. One of the young men went and got me a cold water and we talked ball for a while as I continued to search. All in all it just feels like the old school shops when you could go in and look for what you like, instead of being pushed out of the way for people buying thousand dollar cards. One other thing I'd like to point out, is they will take a look at anything you feel like parting ways with. Saw a couple different people come in, and the staff gave them fair and honest pricing and advice, instead of belittling them or offering them well under comps. This place is also located in a cool part of downtown phoenix, so you can park for free near the park, walk to the shop, then check into some of the local eateries and bars!

It was a great warm evening and many people and vendors were out for First Friday Phoenix art walk…read more This was our last stop before heading for the car. I was surprised upon entering because this building originally housed an art coop. We checked it out anyway. Rip Valley sells sports trading cards, memorabilia, graphic t shirts, sportswear and sneakers. There was a nice lounge area. Street metered parking which operates until 10pm. The meters accept credit cards. Police patrolled. Paid lot parking as well.

There were quite a few, but not as many as I'd hoped (at least that he didn't have; it's well stocked for non-collectors or beginning collectors just fine, but not for someone who has been collecting for 15+ years lol). There was also a little bin of pins and stuff, so I grabbed myself a few of those. The staff up front talked to me a bit and when I'd mentioned my husband collects board games and retro games, they pointed me toward another shop in the little mall behind the DQ. Super kind of them!

I've…read morebeen to several Game Stores in LA, SD, and Washington DC, and this store has definitely topped the list! Not only was the place clean, but they had good pricing, and the most pleasant staff I've ever interacted with in a game store! My wife even informed me that this is the most comfortable she's felt interacting with folks in a Game Store. My most favorite thing they sold, that my wife and I bought 3 of, was custom pre-made decks, one for MTG Commander, and two for Star Wars Twin Suns. I've never seen a Game Store sell custom pre-made decks constructed by the staff. Really cool concept that more stores should do! I hope to come back to Arizona just so I can give them more of my business.
