I don't say this lightly, but **A Hidden Fortress is hands down the best TCG shop I've ever been…read moreto. I've been around card shops for a long time, and most places get one or two things right. This place gets everything right. The selection is fantastic, the shop is clean and well organized, and it actually feels like a space designed for players, not just transactions. You can tell immediately that this isn't just a store, it's a community hub. What really sets it apart is the people. The staff are knowledgeable, welcoming, and genuinely care about the players walking through the door. That's not something you can fake, and it shows in how the community shows up. Whether you're brand new to TCGs or deep in the hobby, you feel like you belong there. They also do a phenomenal job supporting events and keeping the scene active. There's always something going on, and it creates that energy that great local game stores used to have, but a lot of places have lost. If you're anywhere near Simi Valley and into trading cards, this place isn't just worth checking out, it's worth going out of your way for. Absolute gem.

The pricing here however is usually 10 dollars more but it makes it worth it due to the huge selection of cars here and your supporting a local business . But sometimes they have sales on cars which are 10 dollars less then hobby lobby. i felt like a little kid at a candy store here. The paint selection is also great finding exactly what I needed. The service here is amazing since I didn't feel dumb or guilty about asking a question here compared to hobby lobby.

I love love Hobby Lobby, but they have a manager there that needs some serious management training…read more She is going to get them a law suit if she does not correct her ways, she is always up front & her name starts with a "V". I heard her say some stupid stuff for a manager, just after the Covid scare, "where is everyone getting their money from", because a Mexican family was buying a lot decorations for a party!. On another occasion during the day & the lines were long", doesn't anyone work anymore!. Just yesterday I had a $45 order, all I had was a hundred on me, the cashier asked if I had something smaller, I did not, she called "V" over & she asked the same question, I said NO, sorry. She said I would end up with a bunch of $1's, I said no problem, she came back with like 50 $1's & some $5's - she told the cashier, the RULE is you have to use the $1's first. Well the cashier did not listen to her & gave me $5's. As I was walking out, I swear she went into a victory dance. (Not knowing I got $5's instead of $1's) I am contacting corporate - that was the final straw. Really "Rule", she sounded stupid, that's the RULE. Imagine a manger behaving that way.

Not to single out this location…read more.. I seriously do not like Hobby Lobby, no matter the location. I will say the music was pleasant, the selection okay, and the store was clean, but they need to understand that they're missing out on certain communities of people. The first, us Neuro Spicy brained people/autistics. Not a single sign whatsoever on what's where, what's down the aisle, nothing. It becomes very overwhelming and stressful. The second group of people? Any and all with a bad neck. Not having signage, forces us to look down each and every aisle before going in it, causing someone like me with a birth defect and cervical instability to become very dizzy. Yes, I could have asked for help, but I chose to familiarize myself with the store. Not realizing years and years since I've been in one, they still don't have any signs at the end of their aisles. Is it laziness? I have no idea, but as a highly creative in many areas, I'm done with Hobby Lobby. As an art store, GET CREATIVE, and put up some signs.

Loot Box is one of those rare TCG shops where you can tell the people behind it genuinely care…read moreabout their community. They consistently offer products at MSRP, which already sets them apart, but they go further by being generous at events and providing better prize support than most other shops. The space itself has a great aesthetic, and the players there reflect the same positive energy. Everyone I've interacted with has been welcoming and kind. A special thank you to Nick as well. Every the I've visited, he's always been chill, flexible, and incredibly welcoming, and his honest personality really adds to what makes the shop feel so genuine. It's not the closest shop to me, but it's one I'm always happy to make the trip for.
