Not pushy, but just super attentive. I told them I was heading to his kindergarten graduation with these items, and they graciously offered to do a cute gift wrapping job at no additional cost. At a time when Customer Service is nonexistent at most brick and mortar stores, Red Balloon sets the standard!

This is not your "run of the mill" toy store that you'd find in any mall across the Wasatch Front…read more No, this little corner of the Grand America Hotel is what imaginations are famous for. Of course, they have toys and candy, but look beyond that and you'll see a well-curated collection of items to delight the young and the young-at-heart. The décor and ambience left nothing to be desired. It almost looks like a set for a children's television show. If you find yourself in the area, stop by and take a stroll through the store. It will leave you wishing you were ten years old again.

Or perhaps you're a family member at a convention and need to bring home a surprise... well Jou Jou has just the thing. This is such an imaginative store that you can be lost for HOURS if you wanted to. The Giant robot, the dragon, the wall of costumes and the wall of games. The airships, all the fine work and details, I really don't think there's another store like it. There is a special wall that contains the monsters, if you walk by, some of them are activated. Some are cute, but some could be frightening. There's a tower of baby toys that smells like baby powder. it truly is something unique!

Never visited the store in person, but I have browsed their website and their selection of toy…read moretrains is incredible.Why does it matter to me, you may ask? Well, because my niece loves playing with toy trains, and they are hard for me to find, as we don't have a decent toy store in Philadelphia. The best toy store in the Philadelphia, Tildie's Toy Box, is terrible when it comes to selection. I really wish we had a toy store in Philadelphia as good as Red Balloon. Rock on, Red Balloon!

The employees here are nice and helpful, but unfortunately there's not a great selection of card…read morepackages. The only times I've seen a good selection is with recent releases. In addition, searching for singles is tucked away so you have to use the computer in the very back of the store, which isn't well highlighted unless you ask. Everything is relatively priced at MSRP, so you won't be charged insane rates if you do find something you're looking for to add to your collection. I will say that their amount of card game supplies is very well equipped. If you ever need boxes or sleeves they have plenty! I would recommend coming here for supplies to elevate your card game experience!

I had a very positive experience visiting Game Night Games for the first time last week…read more They helped me locate the game I came in initially looking for- but when I second guessed my choice of birthday gift for my spouse they helped me deliberate between two games based on our personal gaming preferences. Selection isn't quite as big as some other game stores I've visited in the Valley, likely because they just don't have enough storefront space for it, but I think the gaming space in the back is a worthwhile sacrifice for the community aspect. Game prices are recommended market value, but they did have a small sale and used section. The used section was priced fairly, pretty in line with what I see from hobbyists on FB groups and marketplace.

While checking out this strip, my daughter and I ran into this store. I'm a sucker for Hello Kitty…read moreso when she caught my eye through the front door, I knew I was going to have fun here. Walking in, I think the best way to describe this joint is chaotic. Chaotic in the sense that there's a ton of stuff shoved in a very small space. They have a little of everything here. It's quite.... interesting. You have trinkets, blind boxes, key chains and lingerie. The lingerie really threw me off honestly. It was the last thing I would expect from a store like this. We did find a couple things in the store to take home with us when we had back to Idaho. There is a 10 dollar min unless you are paying cash. The cashier is there to do her job so don't expect too much customer service. If you're looking for Sanrio type items than this is the joint to hit up. It is quite overwhelming trying to check everything out. As long as you're patient and is willing to take the time to check everything out than you should have fun for you! But for me, I did have fun looking at everything at first but the more I got into the store itself, it made me uncomfortable due to the cluttering of it.

It's possible the owners don't know but still very disappointing as I would expect a hobby/enthusiast store to have legit items.

If you need a vintage sign, stop light, parking meter, gas pump, toy, steering wheel, advertising piece, anvil, or other distinctively guy stuff, this is a fantastic place to find it. It has a vintage industrial kind of man-cave feel to it. It's not a gigantic store, but it makes good use of the space available. Considering the older store front it's in, it is one one level, and almost all of the store is flat and accessible. There is only one section with a single step down, but customers can see into that area pretty well without having to step down in, so I feel like it's still mostly accessible to all customers. Every time I've gone in I've had a good time. The pricing is higher than some other stores in the area, but it does such a great job of curating one type of antiques that it's still fun to visit, even if some of the higher end items may be above one's price range. It also gives the shopper a chance to see some really neat items that may not appear in a lower end store. I've enjoyed each visit, it's totally unique, but very focused on one type of stuff. This isn't the place for flowery glass and vintage dresses. It's refreshing to see a store that caters to the more industrial, and automotive. If you're an antiquer, and this is your genre, you definitely need to stop in and check it out when you're in town.

As we are visiting SLC until tomorrow, we won't be able to enjoy the shop. Not certain if I will want to waste my time coming here again if I can't be guaranteed that someone will be working at the store.

I legitimately thought this place was awesome ... at first. While trying to liquidate a collection,…read moreI was warned several times by other stores and collectors that this owner couldn't be trusted. I just figured it was competitive. I should have listened as I was lied to over and over again, couldn't get all my consignment items back, and ended up getting taken advantage of because I simply couldn't deal with them anymore and was willing to take heavy losses just to cut the ties. Even though they tried to get me to sign an NDA so I wouldn't let anyone know how sketchy they were, I refused to sign and warn everyone I know not to sell here.

I had to look at everything! You don't want to miss anything cool. You got funny cards, lunch boxes, scratch and sniff stickers to movie themed books. I wanted it all! My favorite items were the naughty candy boxes at the register! I was with a family friend and I didn't want her to see me buying the candy boxes but man I wanted one. I did find a neat Harry Potter sticker book for my friend. It has 934 stickers to this book. I'm very excited to give it to her! She is a due hard Harry Potter lover! The gentleman that was working behind the counter was really sweet. He showed me a couple other Harry Potter themed items they had. I thought it was kind of him to show me something I could have missed. He rang me up. Wrapped my friend's book in nice tissue paper and thanked me several times. I have a feeling this could be a locally owned business. I could be wrong but the costumer service here screams locally owned. The salesman was attentive and kind. It was a different kind of customer service. Either way, it was great! I don't know if I'll be back in the area but if I am, I'm definitely coming back to this store to check out their new merch.

(And probably don't need) Go here for the funny, different, unique items. If you come in looking for a particular thing, good luck. But coming in with an open mind, that's where the magic happens. I ended up with three different greeting cards. Only one that I planned to use immediately. Two others that would definitely be used in the future. All of them slightly inappropriate, which was great. I hate to be this person, but I did get the feel that things were priced a little high. Found myself surprised by the price for items and thinking the price wasn't worth the item.

I am definitely glad we stopped by, as we found such cute items available (decor, gifts, gag gifts, etc). They even have a sex shop in the back. Some of the items are a little pricey, but that's to be expected of a small business. But I'm happy to support our local small businesses. I found Itty Bitty cats, which I'm looking forward to hiding for people to find and /or leave happy surprises for coworkers.
