It's not often I go somewhere twice in a row and get the 5 star treatment. The owner of this sweet…read morelittle shop is the main reason we drove from Washington to Gresham; it is plain to see that he loves the joy his shop gives to children (and reminiscent adults). There's a little bit of everything here, cards and stuffed animals, magazines, vintage toys -- I am instantly transported back to the 80s when I walk in. While my son flips through binder pages full of Pokémon cards, my eyes explore the walls covered in plastic delights and search eagerly through the glass cases. One could totally spend an hour in here just looking at stuff (or playing the original super NES he has out for everyone). My son had a jar of coins and dollars bills that he brought with him to the store. After going back and forth on which Pokémon cards to buy, the owner throws in a deal for a large pack because he was out of the smaller packs, and then sees it's my 8 year old paying, and gives him a few cards for free. My son thinks this place and the owner are one of the most fantastic things he's ever witnessed in his short life. Support small business, go the extra mile to check this place out. It's more than worth it!!

The Gresham Toy Shop got this in while he was on hospice and I picked it up two days after my dad passed. Joe and the Gresham Toy Shop sell more than toys. He sells nostalgia and memories. It is a very special service he provides.

At this mid-September writing, this seasonal store has been open a week and is still receiving new inventory. The store will be here until mid January. The store is spacious and the calendars and games are organized and displayed for easy browsing. I found at least 8 refrigerator calendars before I settled on an 19 month calendar for a mere $14. If I'm this way again in the seasonal time frame, I'll be back, looking for lunar calendars and jumping point calendars and advent calendars. Oh, the places I'll Go! for calendars!

I have gone a few times over the past year, and have felt the same dissatisfaction each time. With the scarce options in Gresham for games, I felt I should give them a couple chances. The video game selection is meek if that. With the most variety for new gen consoles XB S/X and PS5 (This would be fine if they didn't price things as badly). The sections for "retro" games are pitiful, with laughable selections. Any game you came in hoping to find, they've either priced it way too high in the glass case, or they don't have it. Serious price gouging overall, this can't be stated enough. It feels like a basement selection of games that nobody wants, or everyone already has. They even offer games that no longer have online services, rendering them useless to the buyer, at the same price as when these games released 5+ years ago. Do those games come with a warning before or after you buy them? At one point I was on the look out for an original Wii controller, when I called the store I got such vague answers. "We might have them" or a long sales pitch on their off branded Wii controllers sold in store (surprise! They are horrible quality and barely catch a read on the sensor bar) Surely they know the quality of these second market controllers they are selling/ promoting? Just a waste of money and time. The main attraction of this store seems to be the tabletop gaming. They have many events during the week, and I think that is helping with the overall traction of people going in and out of the place. It can't be their prices or selection! I truly think this place would be better off just pivoting to exclusively tabletop games, or AT LEAST take "retro" out of the name. Either way- if you're looking for retro games, don't waste your time here.

Thanks for admitting to your price gouging. I'd never support this kind of business. You know…read moreexactly what we were told on the phone 4 days prior to making our trip. Read what you wrote. You want us to call before we made the drive? We left at 8am to make it there by 12. You open at 11. My husband did call you Thursday and you did confirm you still had it in stock and he did not ask the price AGAIN because you had already told him. Now with his interest and him telling you that was a great price and he couldn't find it anywhere else, you took it "off the shelf" for repricing. That's price gouging. You knew you could make an extra $100 so you pulled it and marked it up. That's shitty on your end. Karma comes full circle. I wouldn't disappoint my children so I went ahead and bought it for them. Like I said. Take our money, take the sale. In return you can have a shitty review for your shitty customer service front and back end. I'm a top Google reviewer and do this for a living via YouTube and TikTok. I'll @my post for you to enjoy. Update: check out all their reviews. I'm not just a shitty customer.

As someone that has lived in Troutdale my whole life, I love to support small businesses in my hometown. I ventured into the store without even an acknowledgment. I was not greeted, and I spent some time in the store to the point that I was the only shopper. Even passing by the front desk I felt it was cold. I base my rating on my cold experience. As a person of color, I did not feel welcomed. I saw some items that are way overpriced as online they are cheaper. I get a few dollars more for a locally owned business, however, at this point, I couldn't justify spending my money with this place of business. I would highly recommend making a point to have better customer service.
