Brandon the owner is incredibly knowledgeable about every item in his shop and you can feel the passion he has for his business oozing from his inviting smile and bright personality from the second you cross the threshold into his shop. The selection of nostalgic retro toys and games is unmatched and his competitive pricing means everyone can leave with something. He is actively involved in making the community of Manchester (where he grew up and where his store is located) a better place and has consistently given back any way he can. For a small mom and pop brick and mortar shop in today's world, his efforts are unmatched. If you are going to support a game/toy shop with your hard earned money, there's no better shop to support. Guaranteed you will leave with a sense of childlike wonder you haven't felt in years, and that is thanks to all the hard work Brandon has put in to create an amazing environment and incredible shop. read more

1000% recommend Retro Junk for anyone looking for "old school/vintage" items! Me and my daughters have bought several things from here including audio tapes, Barbie's, funk pops, buttons, trading cards and a hoodie. The owner Brandon is well versed in his merchandise, has a clean and welcoming space with old school arcade games you can play and is settled in the heart of downtown Manchester making it a great location to shop or even just hang out. He usually has a movie from the 80's or 90's playing which is pretty awesome. Prices are reasonable and what I would expect retro items to cost. Brandon also does a lot of things for the community which is even more reason Retro Junk continues to get my business. read more

I've known Brandon and his family for many years. Knew his family before I got to know him in fact as he and his family has a huge town presence as local business owners. When Brandon start this store and business I remember him looking for place to have his store front and he found one on Main Street. I've been in a few times and the selection of items he has is very impressive. He is always there to ask a question or to tell you about his new inventory that is coming in. He also is very involved with getting back to people on his Facebook page. The value of what he has in his store doesn't come near his value as a person and family man. I recommend anyone to come down and explore his store. read more

What a trip down memory lane! This place has everything from your youth, be it Adventure People to Star Wars to actual arcade video games, to dvds and cds. And they even have a free pin. Every time I go in I'm greeted by the ever friendly and helpful Brandon. Not only does he have an encyclopedic knowledge of all things toys but he's involved in the community. This is one of my favorite spots on Main Street. Friendly, the place is clean and well organized and the prices are fair. Retro Junk is the link to your childhood! read more

Absolutely amazing place! Retro Junk doesn't just create a spot to purchase unique items from our past, but makes the shop a fun spot to visit as well. Bonus tip: if you're looking for a vintage piece of clothing he has a shop within the shop. It's a great piece of nostalgia and worth a few visits throughout the year to check out the revolving stock. Customer service was awesome. I wanted to invite the red haired guy over for Thanksgiving dinner. read more
