What a great store! I have seen it on my trips to the International District for years, but I have…read morenever been inside. I recently got into the Gundam hobby and thought it was time to check this store out. The interior is small but packed with stock, and a few very impressive display cases containing some great scale models. There were several other customers in the store and the owner/operator had a good report with all of them. He took time to talk with me and answer my questions and was very friendly and knowledgeable. I really appreciated his tips and advice. Hike the store is small it has a very good selection of model lines and models. It even had a few premium boxes which I was excited to see. Beyond the models there was also a very good selection of hobby tools paints and supplies. I will absolutely be coming back here and can't recommend it highly enough.

If you're into comics, movies, games, or pop culture in general, Golden Age Collectables is a…read morereally fun place to browse. Tucked away in Pike Place Market, the store is packed from floor to ceiling with comics, graphic novels, action figures, collectibles, and all kinds of memorabilia. I found myself spending much more time there than I expected just looking through everything. What I liked most was the variety. The shop has a great mix of new releases, classic comics, and collectibles, toys, movie scripts, and manga that make it easy to lose track of time while exploring. Even if you don't end up buying anything, it's worth walking through just to take it all in. For anyone visiting Pike Place Market with even a passing interest in comics or collectibles, Golden Age Collectables is a stop I'd happily recommend!!!

This comic book store is located on the 4th floor of Pike Place market. It is a huge store. Really…read morepopular among the visitors. I went there multiple times and it was so packed. They have so much more than just comic books. They have lots of board games. There's a huge collection of posters and figurines. The comic books are separated in sections by genre. There are also many types of playing cards, pins and collectibles as well. One of the unique items at this store was they had the scripts of many popular movies and TV shoes. I saw the script of pilot episode of GOT, TBBT, Friends and among movies there was Batman, Harry Porter, LOTR, Hunger Games, Twin Peaks and hundreds of more of them. I found a Marvel poster that I liked a lot. It was reasonably priced for $15. Checkout process was quick with assistance from very friendly staff. If you are comic fan, this is an absolutely must visit place for anyone visiting the Pike Place market.

I'm definitely more of a sports cards guy so seeing the variety of cards most of em rookies was nice especially the jerseys. Owner was nice and super helpful wasn't at all snooty like another recent review mentioned. I'd say the only things qualm wise I got is using cash only and the pricing on some cards. Obviously I know businesses gotta make a living but when eBay is (for some I saw on my wishlist) 10-15x cheaper I'd just say go there. Also while credit/debit card fees to businesses can be high I do wish they at least had a debit card option or supported a low cost brand. A lot of people don't carry cash anymore especially on trips so just something to prep for. Definitely would come back regardless.

Lose Yourself in Pop Culture History…read more Take this review with a grain of salt since I don't collect anything. Don't be fooled by the name, Market Coins offers so much more than collectible coins. Tucked away in the labyrinth of Pike Place Market, this quirky, cramped little collectibles shop makes you long to camp out and browse vintage magazines, losing yourself in a slice of life back in the day... or more accurately, a slice of life back in the year. The store is a treasure trove of unusual finds. There are ironic vintage political statement posters (check out the photos and you'll see what mean), stacks of sports cards, and an interesting mix of magazines. In particular, the vintage issues of Ring Magazine caught my eye. I have a couple of retired pro-boxer friends and decided to surprise them with retro issues of this classic boxing pub. The owner was friendly and helped me sift through the overwhelming number of options to find the perfect issues. He steered me towards the editions that were perfect for my nostalgic boxers and didn't break the bank since they aren't collectors either. Even if you aren't an avid memorabilia collector, this place is worth a browse.

Laugh if you will, but it's true and I don't give a shit how dorky it is. I even have the obligatory tattoo to pay homage to my rock gods of choice. I signed up for their fan club (which has gone by a few names, but the tried and true is Ten Club) in 1996... this is after begging my mother to let me sign up for 4 years prior. 1996 is the year I opened my own checking account and no longer had to ask her permission for such things. Anyhow, the good folks who run it have been pretty good to me and my kin over the years. They have gotten me good seats to shows. They have sent me cherished Christmas singles, newsletters and given access to nerdy memorabilia I would have otherwise not had access to. I have counted on this club every tour and with their extreme kindness and usually awesome service, avoided Ticketmonster more often than not and seen 40+ shows, made more friends than I can count, had great adventures and spent more money than I care to admit in the process. We all count on them to maintain this high level of service and understanding of our addiction. They are prided for showing lots of respect for the fans and going above and beyond to nurse our PJ habits. Up until about a month ago, I wouldn't have said a single bad word about the club - they would have gotten a shining 5 stars and then some.... but then came Ed's April Fool's Tour, which was announced (and seemingly thrown together) in a last-minute sort of fashion. I won't get too negative here, because at the end of the day I still appreciate and love the club -- but I will give a quick overview of the disappointment that went down: the tour was announced, tickets went on sale days later (all at the same time and only online), servers could not handle traffic, fuckups ensued -- cards charged for tix that didn't exist, people locked out, emails ignored, mass hysteria, no statement from club -- sadness. The first tour in the 13 years I've been seeing their shows (and solo/side shows) where I had no access to tickets without going through scalpers. Total and complete disappointment. So for the poor planning and aftermath of that bit of lameness, I have to knock off a star. Maybe we're just spoiled, but nevertheless it bummed tons of faithful fans out. It's a snafu that can't be ignored. So four stars it is. All that aside, any self-respecting PJ nerd knows membership is mandatory... so get on it, if you haven't.
