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.

This time I purchased some Riftbound singles to build my collection. The prices for singles were good! 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!!

It can be intimidating walking into a card shop when you're still learning, but he made the whole experience enjoyable. Looking forward to visiting this shop again!

Cool little shop. Staff are somewhat friendly but may not be super approachable for new collectors…read more The store is clean, thy have a nice selection of new product. The store doesn't seem have too much vintage cards. They seem to focus on new blind bags and boxes. The value is about market standard. New to the game so it's hard to know if it is too high or not. Cool stop for card collectors.

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.

Really great selection!! Went in to trade some old comics and they were very accommodating and…read morehelpful. Their selection of Pokemon cards is also awesome, and picked up some while I was here!! My only suggestion/complaint is the lack of manga, which I was hoping they'd have more of. But nonetheless, still a great store :)

I had no idea this store even existed until now lol, but wow it's absolutely huge. They have books,…read moreFunkos, CDs, records, collectibles, kids toys, blind bags, and pretty much every 80's baby dream item you could think of. 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!

We stopped in Gainsville on the way back to Clermont because of one of my favorite restaurants there and didn't know there was a 2nd & Charles 5 mins away. So we stopped by to check it out however the sevice wasn't good. My boyfriend wanted to see something and no one offered to help him so we left because 2 employees rather stand around talking to each other rather than help the customer. Needless to say we left and didn't get anything this trip.

I haven't been to the Friends of the Library book sale in a while, so going was kind of an…read moreexperience. 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!

They used to charge admission on the 1st day, which helped to keep the line short. I was in line…read morefor about an hour, no shade. The prices seem much higher now, and arbitrary. Even here Liberals have to assert their politics. The book 'Rigged' by Molly Hemingway was in a section labeled "Political Fiction". I had read the whole thing and it was well researched, with over 84 pages of sources. I challenge anyone to find just one false statement in it.

However, if you are looking for hard to find issues, back issues of popular and hard to find comics, then this is your NIRVANA. I have been inside this shop a number of times and always find what I am looking for and more. The owner is helpful, engaging and will help you search for what you are looking for. Prices are fair and the atmosphere is low key. But when you have a chill location like this, understand you have to be flexible. I have been by a few times when they were closed during hours they were supposed to open and have looked for tho ha I was sure they had, but did not. But if you are a true comic book fan, this is an amazing shop to visit.

His son came in at one point and helped us with the purchase of some albums. They have albums that are open and albums that are sealed, and they have a lot of genres of music to choose from. I ended up buying a Pink Floyd album that I had been trying to locate and it was sealed. I didn't want to open it because that would decrease the value so I called back to see if they had an open copy which they did so I went back the next day and bought it. I don't know I could really explain everything that's in the store. Their books, paperback and hardback. But more than that, they have first edition, signed books by the author and kids books as well. You know what else they have? They have albums, but I already mentioned that. But what I didn't mention was I have three or four rooms of albums. They're on the floor. They're in boxes. They're on racks. So if you're looking for certain music, make sure that you leave yourself enough time to look.. They also have comic books. And trade paperbacks. And graphic novels. They have baseball cards. They have garbage pail cards. They have collectibles, figures, Star Wars, stuff. Yes, lots and lots of stuff . Thoroughly enjoyed shopping here and meeting Mr. French and talking to his son. I know this may not be everybody's jam, but for me I really enjoyed spending time browsing looking and yes, buying.

Convenientlly located within walking distance to the library and James Weldon Park, this is an unbeatable location for a cafe/bookstore. The bookstore itself is an iconic local business, with the uptown being its second location. The collection of used books is massive, and the multimedia selections range from CDs/DVDs to even board games. The trade in program is a great way to reward patrons and loyal customers, and teachers receive a discount with proof of employment. Makes sure to follow the Instagram for the location as they have an offering of free events like Blackout poetry classes every 2nd and 4th Sunday. This is a great location, and definitely a prime spot for a friend gathering or just a chance to have a quiet space to catch up on your tbr list.
