The staff was personable, informed, and engaged. The store was packed with collectibles, comics, back issues, toys, just what you expect from a shop. In the time I spent there shopping three regular customers came in and we ended up in exactly the kind of nerd out discussion you would expect from the name. I also found something I've been looking for for two years! Great staff, great selection, great customers, great store.

The Owner of the store ignored us when we entered and when we asked about where to find the book we…read morecame for he was not helpful. The organization of the store is horrible too with some comics being inaccessible due to shelf stacking. Also the owner made weird comments to his friend that made us uncomfortable enough to just leave without getting anything. Overall Id rather drive 35 minutes to a better store than this one.

The owner, Don, is friendly and willing to work with you on about anything. There are lots of comics, which I know nothing about, so I will just say there are a lot. Mike Lakeland, FL

Green Shift Comics - Tampa's Hidden Gem for Comics & Guitars!…read more If you're a comic fan--or just want to check out some cool guitars--Green Shift Comics is a must-visit. This shop is a goldmine of comics. Whether you're hunting for the latest releases or a hard-to-find classic, Green Shift has it all. What truly sets it apart is the passionate and knowledgeable owner, Todd. He goes above and beyond for customers, offering sage advice and expert guidance. Having visited both before and after he bought the store, I can say his reorganization and attention to detail transformed it into an inviting, well-curated space. In an era where comic shops can feel sterile or corporate, Green Shift radiates personality and heart. Do yourself a favor and check them out--you won't be disappointed. 5 out of 5 stars!

I loved Mojo Books and Records. The space was inviting and inclusive. It wasn't cluttered or messy…read more Since I was just browsing, the neatness of the space made for a peaceful browsing experience, which I loved. The vinyl prices were a bit higher than I'm used to compared to other shops I've visited but they had a great selection. They had a good bit of CDs, as well. The book selection was pretty good. I didn't get to spend as much time on that side but there was a lot to see and choose from. The bathroom was clean. The baristas were kind and checkout was seamless. I highly recommend spending some time here.

Everything was neat and nicely laid out, it definitely felt like somewhere I can relax and study at. I really appreciate the staff for being friendly and welcoming, especially the new worker that came in today and the lady accompanying him. I came to this place feeling frustrated and anxious, but left in a great mood. So, I really appreciate that. And on top of that, they have AMAZING Iced Thai Coffee. Will certainly come back and spread the word!

Big Redhead Vintage Toys is exactly as advertised -- a vintage toy shop. My main issues with it are…read morethat there is not much parking, the building seems to have little or no AC, and the majority of the items for sale are in display cases. I did not end up going home with anything, despite being an avid collector. Fun shop for a quick visit if you happen to be in the area, but I wouldn't drive 1 hr to visit again.

Hadn't been to an honest to God little collectors store like this in a long time. Reminded me of my childhood growing up in the 80s--early 90s. Had a great time talking with the gentleman there who had a good knowledge of the products and particularly his passion for vintage transformers. Got several cool items at a good price.. Some I didn't even know existed. He showed me around and we talked a lot. Customers came and bought and went while I was still there. Loved the vehicle outside converted to look like transformers ambulance. Highly recommend collectors stop by.

I can't say enough good things about Rick.

If you're looking for a new comic book store or just want to try a new place then Demolition is for you.

Target is lot like most other big box sotres that sell clothes, homegoods, and groceries…read more Employees are ok and will help when asked. This particular location has a large self checkout area next to the regular checkout lanes (most of which are closed and not manned). There is also a large covered car drive uyp pickup area. Inside, there is a Starbucks, an eyeglass store, and a small self checkout market that sells snacks and drinks. This partilcular store has a large grocery and bakery section which offer decent selection. One issue is that the shelves are sometimes not stocked well so you'll run into issues there occasionally. We generally leverage this Target to do pickup orders since its convenient to order on the app and pickup in the drive up area. One thing that still bothewrs me about that is there isn't an easy way to check your purchase before you leave. I've only run into an issue once and Target addressed it, but I guess it's part of the cost of convenience. Overall, outside of spending too much money at Target, I can't say too much good or bad. It fills our needs and will probably fill yours too.

When making a return at Target customer service, I interacted with associate, Lesa, and handed her…read moremy receipt. She asked if the total was $35. I specifically asked her to confirm the amount on the receipt she was holding, and she told me it was correct. After she processed the return, I asked for the original receipt she did not give back to me and noticed the refund was short by $5. Instead of clarifying, she insisted the entire purchase had been refunded, but she couldn't explain the missing $5. When I reminded her that I had asked her to verify the receipt total, she denied saying it was $35 and instead claimed she asked if I wanted the refund back on my card -- which was not true. At that point, she walked away and called a manager without even explaining the issue to them. The manager arrived, and I had to re-explain everything myself. Not only did the manager fail to acknowledge the situation or apologize for the misinformation, but she also questioned my reason for a return-- which was irrelevant. It felt dismissive, as though I was wasting her time, rather than her focusing on solving the refund discrepancy. So unless it's self check out, not recommending this store or the people who work there.
