I'n not entirely sure what this guys problem was that day, but boy did I have a poor experience on…read morethe phone with one of the guys that work here. I'm a private Pokémon card collector that has never ventured into the world of buy/sell/trade, so I decided I'd call a few shops in the area to see what they'd recommend, and this is exactly how this conversation went. Guy answers phone, i asked him if he had a minute to answer a couple questions i had. "i mean i have a few people I'm helping right now but yeah sure" I proceed to explain that i was looking for guidance or advice on how to offload my extensive Pokémon card collection as I'm moving out of the area, and i was wondering if they had a buyer or something of the sort that would sit down with me and run through it to see what they're willing to buy, etc. He responds, "oookay. Are you planning on paying someone for that?" Confused, i asked what he meant? "Basically what I'm getting at is no, we don't do that. I have a guy here that's really knowledgeable about that kinda stuff but i wouldn't wanna waste his time" I thanked him for his "candid" (read: completely rude) response and that i would look elsewhere. Needless to say I'll never step foot here again.

This is a late, but important review! We were invited to my child's classmate's birthday party in…read moreearly October. We didn't know the family or child well, only that he was turning four and has an older brother. I purposely wanted to shop local and support an independent business, and a quick search on Yelp led me here. We arrived about an hour before closing on Saturday, which was great because parking meters end at 4pm and we found parking out front easily. We were greeted by an employee behind the desk as we walked in. She asked if there was anything she could help us find, and I let her know we were first time customers looking for a birthday gift with the details mentioned above. She let us know the layout of the store, her suggestions, but let us look freely. Over time more customers arrived with small children, and received the same courteous service. The store is clean and curated. I appreciated seeing well made toys and items inspiring imaginative play, rather than cheap plastic with distracting lights or sounds. I eventually chose a doctor play set as well as some items for my own children, such as animal figures and stamp markers. They offer free gift wrapping, which is a nice touch. The one alarming fact that stood out is that there were many empty storefronts on their block, so it's more important than ever to support our local economy. Their prices reflect investment in well made items, so I would not come here expecting big box store deals. In a world full of Target and Amazon, I would rather spend my money supporting a local, independent business. We had a great experience here and will definitely be back with our kids this holiday season.

P.S. - Metered parking only, but this part of Miracle Mile is not very busy so I had no issue finding an available spot on Saturday afternoon.

There is a lot of open space with tables, especially considering that it's in the westside. I can only really speak on the MTG side of things, but there is a solid selection of sealed and singles. Although, the selection of mtg seems to be getting smaller dues to the surge in new TCGs. One piece of critical feedback for the shop- the model of paywalling preorders for new sets is not cool. If you are looking for a nice spot to attend prerelease events for magic, this is the spot. It can get quite full, but the energy is fun.

Other notable items in stock include Squishmallows, and a variety of trading cards. Definitely stop by this family-owned business!

It's actually the oldest toy store in Los Angeles. I absolutely support kids playing with real toys over devices! Long live the toy stores that are family-owned! I had popped in here and there over the years, but recently stopped in more because they have Nee-Doh! Iykyk but my nieces & nephews around 5-11 LOVE that stuff and it is so hard to find. I've bought it here a few different times now at their reasonable prices ~ but it sells out VERY fast! So bizzare how these trends take hold of the youth, but thankful Kip's Toyland keeps a rotating stock of it. They have so many cool items here and I just love shipping for my friend's kids here! Staff is always friendly and there is a TON packed into the store to explore. Highly recommended to buy here INSTEAD of online shops!
