In the area visiting friends in Hickory, I spotted this comic shop close by and decided to stop by…read moreand check them out. I was astonished at the variety and depth of stock items. Comics, cards, figurines, Pops, Star Wars collectibles, Star Trek collectibles, Hot Wheels, etc. I would not have believed the huge stocks from the outside. Plus some oversized Star Wars items: R2D2, a Droid, and a diorama of Dogabah. These guys are fans first and retailers second. Had a nice conversation about comics and left them with information on checking out my collection and possible deals. They were friendly and knowledgeable and willing to help. Check them out! Just leave enough time to browse around and maybe find that one item you have been looking for.

Every time I stop in with my son, he gets lost in all there is to see! Prices in my opinion are steep, but that's always the case with these type of things! The staff are available if you need help, but nothing special. They do keep everything neat and organized, so that's a plus. If you're in to gaming, it's worth a shot to stop in!

I have been a long time regular patron of gamers alley and it is bar none the absolute best gaming…read more+ collectibles store I have ever been to. I wanted to call out three of their workers for absolutely exceptional customer service. The first one and biggest amount of appreciation I wanted to extend is to Cody. His general knowledge of the tcgs gamers sells along side an encyclopedic knowledge of their inventory are both indespensable as a customer. I cannot count how many times I've come in for cards in the case and BECAUSE of his knowledge I've ended up grabbing cards I otherwise wouldnt have purchased I also buy my singles from gamers because they are always honest on the condition of the cards, another thing I wanted to specifically commend cody for being exceptional at. Next is Jessica. She's always very friendly, polite, knowledgeable, and makes us feel noticed and welcome whenever we are in the store. Her warmth is absolutely radiant and I truly think she's another standout. The last one i wanted to commend is Samuel. I have less interactions with him so less to say but my few interactions with him have all been positive and I generally feel hes another gem among the staff And then just to repeat it one final time, Cody is an absolute standout every time we go to the store. I often drive out of my way to come to gamers over alternatives after calling to confirm cody is there and working. It's that impactful and important when he is there that we will go out of our way to see him. 10/10 recommendation on all fronts. Do NOT miss this store if you like anything gaming and collectibles. They are cooler than any museum and friendly to boot.

I saw issues that I wanted, as well as issues I didn't know I wanted. I enjoyed their toy section, as well. But I didn't partake this time because I bought waaay too many comics lol.

I'd gladly take that trek from Charlotte anyway now that I've seen it for myself. If you're in the area, definitely check them out.

How am I only finding out about this place?…read more After stopping into Burke Street pizza for the first time, the retro signage on the door caught my eye and we had to go and check it out. I was immediately welcomed by a wall of pokémon themed collectibles and a christmas tree decorated with the like. So cute! It was also really neat to see these retro games and consoles that could really take front and center stage. Unlike other used game stores, they really elevated and gave these a more dignified showcasing of value. Had me questioning whether I should be selling my old game boy games and consoles! Seems to be a market for this and I'm glad to see it. Felt like walking into an EB Game store for me. Shows how long I've been around. Sheesh.

Their vendor booth fee was very reasonable, and they even provided a gift bag to each vendor with small gifts and a bag of snacks and water to get through the day (a first for me). The show had some good foot traffic, again, for being the first of its kind. I'm excited to do more events with them, and would recommend!

The staff is quick to assist on what customers need and check them out. I went on a Saturday morning and there were no lines. There is a variety of trading cards or collector toy items available for purchase. They also have plenty of game tabletops for card players to play in the back. There prices are not outrageous and affordable.

I saw them interact very gingerly with a young lady. Who had some slight social developmental issues. Class act Store all the way around. I only wish I lived closer... Will definitely have to come back. Plus they had video games for every platform and actual arcade games.
