Made a visit to local comic shop in town. Surprised that it was much larger than expected. Huge…read moredisplays of comics the length of the store. Lots of posters, hobby kits and items. One of the nicest stores I've been into. Greeted by the owner, Tommy. Had a nice chat with him about collecting stories, both him and I. I have collected comics for 65 years and about 10 years ago started selling parts of my 20,000+ collection. I did bring several books with me from 40s to 60s for Tommy to look at but I couldn't accept his offer. Great local place for collectors! And if a book is not in stock, he can order it quickly. Sadly he did not have either of the two 40s books I was looking for

Today about a week later we show up with his collection and we set there for 45 mins to an hour with one of the employees trading conversations about what he had and what his plan was with his collection to carryout until later years throughout his life, now myself I know the basics of the game I've played a couple of times with him, he gets a laugh out of it he doesn't get aggervated is very helpful on the game. Thank you guys so much....

I'm from out of town and have been trying to do business with this store over the past two years…read morewhen I been coming to deal with family issues. I've had mixed to declining results and, with this last visit, I am done! The customer service has always been weak and now I'm at the breaking point. Because I have limited time each visit, I try to email a list of what I'm looking for in advance. Management either doesn't check their email or simply don't care. Last week, I called twice and unfortunately got the same person who thoroughly discouraged emailing in favor of coming in because "it would be easier" and "they don't have time to look." Easier for whom? Certainly not the returning costomer. Since they're close to the airport and I had time, I stopped in anyway on Fri. I spoke with who I believe to be the owner and he also wasn't too interested in making time to check books that he said he had in the back that were recently purchased. They were apparently getting ready for a sale the next day and possibly making a sale in the moment was clearly not that important. They made a copy of my list, took my name and number and said they would check. I made it clear that I was leaving Mon, today. As of 1:00, no call. So I called the store. The clerk who answered has no idea I'm talking about and was very dismissive, and the owner isn't there until tomorrow. They don't talk their employees anymore than their customers. So, that's it. I've had it with them and won't be going back even if they had the hardest to find book on my list. One of the worst shops I've ever been to for customer service. Shame on me for having given them multiple chances to do right.
