I'm deeply disappointed with our local gaming store's approach to product pricing. Rather than…read moretaking steps to deter scalping--such as removing the cellophane and sticking to MSRP--Clockworks has chosen to sell a popular Pokémon set for more than double the MSRP. While Clockworks provides a great play space and plays an important role in the Bryan/College Station collectible community, this pricing practice undermines the spirit of the hobby. This decision alienates people and contributes to the scalping culture that harms the community. I hope the store reconsiders its policies to better support collectors and players alike, as the community, in turn, supports them.

The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and you can tell they genuinely care about the community and the hobby. One thing I really respect is how they changed their Pokémon card policy to help combat scalpers. Real Pokémon fans usually don't mind if the factory seal is cut when buying product because the cards and packs inside are still untouched, and it helps keep product in the hands of actual collectors and players instead of resellers clearing shelves. If you do want fully sealed product, they still offer it at current market price, which is a fair balance for everyone. Great atmosphere, great people, and a store that actually looks out for the community

This is a cool place to come if you want some used toys, and it's a lot cheaper than an actual Lego store, but it's still not cheap, don't get me wrong. We think it's a pretty cute store and definitely stop in here when it's nearly holiday season to get some stuff for the kids and Barbi's family. They're a friendly bunch too, I'd even consider giving it a 5 star rating if Barbi tells me to. (Checks with her). She told me it's 5, not 4. So there's the final word. She's very generous with her ratings, that one. Very generous with her looks too.
