Very nice little spot, absolutely recommend if you're into old videogames, trinkets, cards, comics, etc. Not to discredit the good parts, but the vinyl record section is just.. sad. Most of them are incorrectly stored with absolutely no sleeves and with atrocious warps and scratches. Though, they do have old shellac records, which I thought was pretty neat! Also, the videogames are behind the counter for some reason? Can't really see or pick any out. In terms of pricing, the items seem pretty fairly priced, no complaints there. The service is great, the guy at the counter seemed genuinely enthusiastic and happy to help. read more

In a word: epic. Right next to the Tesla Supercharger, this is an awesome find. Old school game store vibes, it even had my parents excited to find some old comic books as well. Good deals on books, cards (tons of Pokemon cards), and boardgames (though limited selection on boardgames). Everyone there was fun, friendly, and happy to chat. Will definitely stop by again on my next trip. read more

The guy who owns this place is super nice! Gave me a great deal on the video game accessories I was selling. read more

This place was great! My fiancé and I had a great time here and we got some pretty good deals. I hope they stay in business for a long time.

Amazing! The person running the store hooked us up with our purchases. Made us feel welcome and let us take our time looking through their amazing collections. All really good prices too! read more

This store is amazing. Have amazing finds and will satisfy any type of gaming need. I only came in here for some playing cards. Was greeted and helped right away. Have awesome prices and deals. I would recommend coming here before anywhere else. read more

Games Exchange - Came in here for some little extra lorcana cards. Awesome friendly people in here. Go in and check it out. Have so many things - Videos & Video Game Rental Near Me - Grover Beach, California

After going ATV riding it was still early in the day so we decided to go to a card shop nearby to look for some stuff. Whenever we go on trips now, Hubby wants to find card shops so that we can test our luck. We found Games Exchange on Yelp and decided to come by to see what they had. As we were pulling into the parking lot we saw someone in a Pikachu suit! It was really cool. When we went in there were a bunch of different stuff, cards, movies, games, etc. Hubby opt to buy some single cards and some other stuff that I can't quite remember right now. The owner (?) I believe was super nice and very informative. Any questions that we had he happily answered for us. We will definitely be coming back to this spot whenever we are in the area again! read more

I came here looking for Horror waifu Elesh Norn merchandise, I was greatly pleased. I shall come here once a month to purchase, so I can support this awesome local store. The guys working there, you are amazing. read more

Your not greeted by the guy a try counter, you can rummage through the poor quality items and trip over the garbage selection. All games held behind counter to your inconvenience. This is a joke of a game store. read more

Awesome store with a huge variety of things from records and vhs to gameboys and n64 games. Along with a with boxes of random controllers and connecting wires which are always helpful for those garage sale finds. Plus the owner is nice and helpful! Definitely recommended! read more

Games Exchange - Game boy games. PAC man in great condition and a bugs life. Very reasonably priced as well - Videos & Video Game Rental Near Me - Grover Beach, California

So this is like walking back in time for me. The store has vhs tapes, cds, cassettes, Nintendo games, arcade machines and so much more. If you like sports cards which is why I was there well he has so many it's crazy. The place is not as organized as many shops I have been in but if you are willing to spend the time you will find a treasure you have to have. The owner was very friendly and really made you feel welcome. read more

There was a wide range of games and the owner was extremely nice and help. Has good pricing one movies and games.

This store is my go to place for buying records but they also sell games, movies, comics and a bunch of other awesome finds. The prices have always been reasonable and the store always has a pleasant and welcoming atmosphere. This is the kind of place where I can spend an hour browsing through the record bins and not feeling like I'm overstaying my welcome. This place is an underrated gem in Grover and worth a visit. read more

Go here if you want to be treated like your ripping him off. They only wanna pay 1/4 of the value of what you bring in. Very rude. I'll never do business w them again. Half thier store is old n dusty anyways. They always have like 5 dudes just sitting there hanging around like it's grandma's basement. Much better places to do business in San Luis Or Santa Maria. read more

I bought my first ever comic book here (and I liked it). My little son loves Batman and we came in here as he saw the painting of Batman on the building and it turned out to be a gem of a place. The owner is super kind, and super friendly! He is super kind to the kids and kids in general. He features a comic series by a little boy in the neighborhood and let's people buy them. This is store is what adds to the community feel of Grover Beach. They also host game nights here for people who arr looking for traditional game nights. They have retro gaming and records. Cute fandom stuff and they're always ordering new and awesome things to the store. We pop in for Batman splurges. This store is a must see! It has something for everyone (including a very old copy of MAD Magazine). read more

Not a one star! Haha, had a nice talk with the gentleman behind the counter. Bought a few things that I am very happy with! 10/10 recommend

Love this store! Brings nostalgia every time I go there. They always have different vintage toys and games!

These guys were knowledgeable polite and extremely helpful honestly I am just a tourist but I'm going to make this a regular stop every time I visit now! read more

I've been going to this place since I was a teenager. Their selection of games is always changing so it's exciting to go every time to see what's new. Their prices are the most reasonable and the workers are always very chill and easy to work with. Any help you need they're more than willing to assist. An absolute diamond of a business for people who collect any form of retro media!!! read more

Love this place! The staff are all really friendly and knowledgeable. They have all kinds of classic video games and will order you any new ones you need for a good price. Very welcoming:) read more

I've been going to games Exchange for many years I have been a customer since Tony had the other location and followed him to the current location. He has an incredible variety of choice classic and new games and if you are looking for something particular he will do his best to get it for you. He takes trades and pays cash for items and has always been fair to me. He hosts are game night and does contests to include the youth in our community. He runs a legitimate business and will go to Games Exchange before I ever patronize a corporate store. I'm a small business supporter and I'm a fan of Games Exchange read more

Wish I could give negative stars. I brought in 2 brand new games he looked at them told me they were in terrible condition. I called him out on it and he is like ok they aren't so I told him he was a ripoff and walked out. He then chased me out of the store cursing at the top of his lungs like a cray person. He offered me 20 bucks for both went to game crazy ang got 60 for both. He is a terrible man and I hope the worse for him save the games and donate them or have a garage sale you will feel better about it or get more money. Do not come here and let's get crooks like this guy out of the area! read more

Walked in to the new location to check it out and immediately got kind of depressed. A large dark room with a bunch of comics on a table in the middle, very few video games for PS3, Wii, or XBox 360, an unsmiling guy behind the counter, and Fox News blaring from a TV. The only cool thing I saw is they have a selection of used DVDs for 2 bucks, and if you watch it and bring it back, they give you a dollar. Didn't see anything I liked though. read more

Games Exchanges is SUCH a cool place! A wide selection of console and handheld video games, from current generation back to the classics; CARDS CARDS CARDS - Magic, Pokemon, Yugioh, Dragon Ball Z ... you name it, he's got it; sports memorabilia and even a decent selection of used DVD line the walls by the door. Every time I come in here I'm cut a KILLER deal, no matter what I'm buying. In addition to more-than-fair pricing, the environment is welcoming and chill, like a mecca for the REAL cool kids. I'm a big fan of small businesses and reusing/recycling vintage games and collectibles, rather than continually chasing the newest, "best" thing(s) to come out. Games Exchange is beyond badass and has a special place in my heart and this community. Thank you!! read more

Went in the other day for the first time. Selection was pretty good. Kinda pricy. Why is a yellowed SNES the same price as one that isn't? That's a small thing, though. Customer service was alright, not great, but I wasn't insulted by anyone. Was thinking about coming back to get some stuff. Until this happened. One of their employees came into my store and was bragging about how they changed the batteries in some GBA cartridges using nothing but electrical tape. Sorry, what? Can't even be bothered to resolder it in? So DO NOT buy Pokemon GBA games from them, at least, because they won't last. Especially since they weren't even going to adjust the price or tell people. Also would consider against buying anything electronic. What else do they have rigged together with chewing gum and paper clips, until it's too late to return it. Discs might be okay, but I would never ever give a business like this my money. read more

Cool place for old school collectables and games.Support your local shops better than shopping at GameStop

Games Exchange caters to an eclectic group of people. The store has a varied collection of media from from 78 records to the latest DVDs with VHS tapes and CDs in between. In addition you will find video games, comic books, and baseball cards in the mix. The VHS tapes and DVDs can be purchased, viewed, then returned for a percentage of the original cost. Makes renting tapes a bit easier on the wallet. I particularly enjoy the extensive collection of DVDs. They even have a special section for children's programs. They take good care of their discs and clean them after each use. I think you will find this store has a little of everything in the way visual media. For those who have complained about what the store offers for used merchandise that you bring in to sell. Remember, it is their store and their money. If you don't like their offer, you can always go to another games store. However, I think you will find they are as competitive as you will find in any other games store. read more

Cool place for games & retro collectibles. They always give good deals on Pokemon cards too.

This is my favorite game shop, record store and all around (sports) memorabilia and nostalgia (comics) stop. The owner and employees are reasonable and respectable people that have an all around knowledge of everything in the shop. With new random deals every day the best way to keep up with what's going on at the shop is either facebook or just going in. Also Tony will allow just about anyone to host just about any game and sometimes offers prizes for buy ins! The place is also known to buy used movies, games and records or just about anything shop related for cash or even sweeter deals on store credit! read more

One of the last of the cool little video game, card game, and movie stores. This is the best place to come to buy one of your favorite movies for a reasonable price and even pick up used games for that old video game console you own. They also will buy your old movies and games and will give you an ok deal. read more

This place is pretty good. The prices are extremely good and has a a huge collection of Xbox and PS2 collection. Im taking a star off because the some of the stuff is dirty and their is not many games besides Xbox and PS2. I do recommend this because it has good prices and also movies too! read more

I love Games Exchange! Five stars for a friendly staff, amazing selection of products, and great location. By mistake I may have accidentally hit one star on a previous review. :( I apologize because I am a frequent customer and have always had a great experience. The LP collection is extensive. The 45's are great and I would definitely recommend this place to my friends and family. Go see for yourself! You'll love it! read more

This store is awsome I love going to look at all the movies and games they have so much to choose from old collectors comics hard to find games just bought 2 new blue rays for $10 dollars collectors cards also I recommend it to everyone who likes games and more read more

The most unfriendly game store I've ever been in. I stopped in hoping a local shop might be better than one of the big brand stores, but the employees were completely silent as I walked in, one didn't look up from his PSP (or maybe it was a DS?) the whole time I was there, and the girl behind the counter seemed annoyed that she had to talk to me. read more

This is a Negative Star !!!!!!. Called Game exchange and The person that answer the phone I believe was the owner was the most rudest man i had ever talked to!!!. He was cussing on the phone throwing down F bombs . I have never ever talked to a person on the phone with such hatred in my life!! I would recommend to everyone not go there!!, He has a very poor attitude!! . He has no business working with customers much less being the owner of an establishment. He needs Jesus in his heart!!! :+++ read more

Love this place! The guys working are always very nice & they have a huge selection of pokemon, magic and yugioh cards. I like that they are now open on Sundays. They also buy & trade fair which is cool. Best Games Exchange in the area!!!! Much better than the one in Atascadero. The Grover location is the Best!!! read more

Great Store! Has a great selection of vintage, modern, and even card games (Which not too many stores sell card games anymore). As well as the guy who runs the store who is always there to answer any questions I or any other people have. Go check it out if you're a collector and/or want to pick up games you played as a kid or look forward to playing. read more
