The guy working talked to a couple patrons before they left, but as I was looking around, he didn't bother asking if I needed help finding anything. The staff at the comic book store in Claremont - A Shop Called Quest -are way better at helping, asking if you need anything, and like to talk about comics. Value: 0. Overpriced. I just checked my transaction history, and it was $43.53 out the door. Amazon has it for $19.

I had a really bad experience at Comic Madness. From the moment we walked in, the girl behind the…read morecounter was rude and had zero customer service skills. She acted annoyed that we were even there and kept that attitude the entire time. When we asked about prices, she responded in a really sarcastic and dismissive way. At one point she said "25..." and when we tried to clarify she said "like 25 cents," which just came off as rude and unhelpful instead of answering a simple question. It felt like she was being intentionally difficult. She also told us she was working alone, but there was a guy behind the counter too -- and he was actually nice and polite, which made the whole situation even more confusing. Overall, the experience was uncomfortable from the moment we walked in to the moment we left. Customer service makes a big difference, and unfortunately this visit was a miss.

The employees were welcoming, friendly and made the experience fun. They encouraged us to join their (free) rewards program via their website and follow them on instagram for updates and other events. I preordered the LP, and pricing is slightly higher than the Bruno Mars website, but I was happy to support a local business. I picked up the album today, and received the same great customer service as my first visit.

Brian and his partner are honest, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. The shop has an amazing variety of collectibles beyond just cards, like vintage magazines and more. If you're looking for a hassle-free spot to buy or sell, this is a hidden gem in Riverside. He also does trades and cash deals! 5/5 stars!

My daughter and granddaughter accompanied me on a mission to find specific hard to find Pokémon cards to complete a set. We were able to find 5 or 6 of them. It was so much fun hanging out and ferreting through boxes and boxes of cards. We weren't rushed out and were left to dig at our leisure. I'll return to True to dig, sort, and converse. It's like being a kid again. Quick Tip: No sports cards, but the friendly associates can direct you to where you can find them. Have fun.

My review is specifically for that Pokémon dealer in the far left corner when you enter the show,…read morethe one inside that little room. I met Vincent, and he recognized my kids and me - we're noobs when it comes to Pokémon cards and pretty much only buy $1-2 bulk foil cards for fun, and we've walked the floor maybe once before. Vincent is a gem of a dealer and human being. He gave my boys sleeves, and even $5 full alt-art foils at no cost. Needless to say, for any future Pokémon purchases, I'm coming to these guys first. They also had 6-7 binders full of great $1-2 cards and it's exactly what we're looking for. Ended up walking out with $20 worth of $1 cards, not including their gifts to my boys. I get it, we're not high-dollar spenders for this hobby, but these guys treated us like we were. Vincent and his team deserve all the business they get.

Fantastic comic book shop in a strip mall in Rancho Cucamonga. Not only do they have a huge…read moreselection of comic books, but they have a really large selection of other collectibles (Funko, etc.). The folks here are friendly and you can tell they are knowledgeable and love the industry. I randomly stumbled across this place when I was grabbing lunch in the area on my break. I can't speak to much on the value because I was just going in to take a look at the time (and didn't purchase anything on that particular visit), but from the price tags, everything that I saw seemed very reasonable. This is the type of place that I would have spent a lot of my paper route or minimum wages I earned when I was a kid. I probably would have spent hours here and been here all the time if this place was near me growing up. If you are into comic books and related collectibles, this place is an absolute gem.

I have been coming to this shop for years, I have to say I love the staff here! I used to shop at…read morethe Redlands location because it's closer but the service was sub par and management there just sucks so bad! The selection is excellent no matter what I'm looking for niche or brand new these guys know what they're doing. I can always trust them for excellent recommendations, I also pick up gifts for friends and family here they have a little bit for everyone. They even have a back issue bin where you can find a great value and even more selection of older issues. Eli and Eddie are just so friendly consistently and very knowledgeable, Jason really knows how to run this store (please never ever switch management). If you have the chance definitely make the treck to Claremont. Oh and one last thing thank you for making sure people with sticky wet hands aren't walking in here and ruining the pristine issues every collector would like to have.

There is a senior team member that seems really not happy to work there but I understand it's a ton of stuff. The value is half and half. Whoever determines the "value" is probably someone just looking it up on the internet and guessing the value. Some stuff is great value and some stuff is really over priced. But this place is GREAT for niche market!!!

So whoever is in charge of that is at fault. Either manager or the company itself. Everything that is not book or dvd/cd cost way to much. Don't bother.
