Friar Tuck himself greeted us at the door today and gave us a quick tour…read more My husband was excited to check out this comic book store, not only because they had back issues that he was looking for in his collection but also the entire store was at least 20% off today! (The prices were a little high to begin with so the sale made them more regular). The display comic books had cool identifiers like the first appearance of Hawkeye, for example. They were valued higher because of these specifics. Even those were 20% off today. My husband's only critique was that some of the long boxes were packed too tight such that he would've had to pull out multiple comic books just to be able to search through the box. He says he would've bought more if there were about 15 fewer issues per long box. Come check it out!

Awesome comic book store. Exactly what I was looking for during my unexpected free afternoon during…read moremy Boston visit. Walked in and one of the employees asked if I was new there. I said Yes and he then gave me their quick spiel. From other reviews it looks like 20% off isn't new and has been a thing for a very long time. I didn't find, in general, their prices to be too bad. A few books maybe but they're smack in the middle of the city in a high tent area and their selection of pretty much everything is great, do slightly higher prices are understandable. Highly suggest a visit for current books, back issues, slabs, and I think lots of gaming stuff as well (I didn't pay attention to their non-comic stuff). It was actually fun for me.

I had an exceptional experience with Colony Coin in Newton and cannot recommend them highly enough…read more I brought in a large and varied collection that included U.S. gold and silver coins, non-precious-metal coins, U.S. currency, foreign coins and bills, and stamps. After I called to make an appointment, the owner personally spent nearly two hours with me, carefully and thoroughly going through everything I had brought in. His knowledge is extraordinary, but what impressed me just as much was his obvious passion for what he does and his integrity. Throughout the entire process, he was completely transparent about values, what he could sell items for, and what his own margin would be. There were no games and no pressure--just straightforward, knowledgeable advice from someone who clearly knows this business inside and out. In the end, he made me a fantastic offer for the collection, and I walked away feeling that I had been treated extremely fairly. He is friendly, engaging, and refreshingly direct--he tells you exactly what he thinks and why. Selling a collection like this requires a great deal of trust, and I could not have been more pleased with the experience. If you have coins, currency, stamps, or a collection you are considering selling, Colony Coin in Newton would be my first recommendation. A truly first-rate business run by someone with tremendous knowledge and integrity.

They have an extensive selection of yarns of various types, as well as flosses, the biggest collection of buttons I have ever seen, etc. There is a big table in the store where you can sit and knit with others. They also have tons of books so you can find patterns and inspirations. I was immediately helped by a lady named Andy who asked me lots of extensive questions to help me figure out what I wanted and showed me everything the store had.

I was nervous and I didn't know what to expect. When I visited the store Ron was assigned to handle my transaction. Ron is a class act.

I am looking forward to doing more business with Stack's Bowers in the future. I recommend that before you sell your gold or silver stop by Stack's Bowers.

It was raining, it is the week of Passover and Easter and the parking lot was a mess. I ran in, grabbed my order and thought "what a cute red bag they put it in" and ran out. My mistake was not checking to see what was actually in the bag..... Not the colors I ordered and no, I did not say that substituting the items was OK (because it wouldn't have been). Complete waste of time since I now need to return them and feel like a weirdo returning Easter stuff AFTER the holiday when I have time (and will not be returning to Cambridge). I always use pick-up and have never had a problem, lesson learned! Thanks for wasting my time (and $3.98 gallon gas)!
