We didn't realize how far out this place was. It was right by new town. It's right off the exit so…read moredon't speed too fast or else you'll miss it. Small small parking lot on a hill so probably best to come visit spring/summer. This place was jam packed with so much. The guy who checked us out educated us on these comics we saw of invincible characters on the covers but weren't in the comic at all. It was nice to see an array on invincible (I know, im obsessed). We were looking for some Kingsman comics but only found the one with the cast from the movie on it. We bought a comic and some cases for displaying. We'll probably visit every now and then just because it's so far from us.

We're in town from out of state for vacation and found this wonderful gem of a store. There's nothing like this back home and I've been to many such stores in many states. Everything is reasonably priced and there are a huge variety of items they carry such as posters, blindbox figures, anime vinyl record/CD, and playmats. Did I mention the wall of figures and room filled with nothing but Gundam and similar model kits?I thought I'd faint in happiness when I stepped into the room. I wish I could stay a bit longer if I had the time. Overall, this is a must see destination for all anime fans and alike if and when you're in St Louis area.

Fast forward to recently, my girlfriend and I got back into collecting Pokémon cards. When she suggested giving The Collector another try, I was hesitant, but we decided to check it out again. To their credit, the pricing has improved compared to what I remembered, even though it still tends to be on the higher side. We also met a few people there and started making friends, which made the experience more enjoyable. Unfortunately, over time, those friendships seemed to fade for no apparent reason. It started to feel like we were being singled out or treated differently, and the overall atmosphere became uncomfortable. Whether that was intentional or not, it left us feeling unwelcome and targeted. Because of that experience, we've decided not to return. While there are some positive aspects to the store, the overall environment no longer feels like a place where we want to spend our time.
