Tour De Jeux is a great store to browse tabletop games and legos…read more The employees working there were super helpful and knew what they were talking about when it came to tabletop games (advanced ones). There is such a wide variety, there is something for everyone as well as new games to add to your collection. One of the employees told me that the barcodes are coded for languages. FR for French, ENG for English, and Multi for multi language. This was super helpful for finding games in English. I wanted to buy quite a few games here but the prices were quite steep. They had a 3D Catan that was about $100 more than the one on Amazon (US website). However, this was a fun store to look around and the employees truly were great.

This is a board game store, and not a toy store. This store was created way before the hype of…read moreboard games happened snd other stores popped up like crazy. The good: Staff knows their games and will take moments to explain it to you. Lots of board games, from simple to very complex. They have sections for complex games and popular games. Carries a good variety of local board games. Prices are the same as other stores and online stores. Also has mind games and puzzle section. Has area for the little ones too. The bad: VERY low on card games (so low you really have to look around to find them). Staff can really be in-your-face when you are just browsing, and that is truly annoying. The bad for me is what made me not give a store a five-star review. In fact, l might be generous with four as l am a card game fan (Munchkin, etc.), but they are so rare there. And the staff asking if you need help every five minutes is truly annoying (and afterwards looking at you from a distance).

The owners really have an issue if you enter and do not buy anything. I have bought 2-3 times books from this store before and I have entered quite a few times without buying, triggering frown on the owner`s face. The last time I was there my son wanted to see a book. We opened the first page and just read the title and the first sentence aloud to get a sense and see if it sounds interesting. Less than 10 seconds later the owner came and started screaming at me in very broken French that this is not a library and they have come here from China to make business. The book was in mint condition and while I tried to explain that I am just looking at it and considering buying a book, and that all the book stores normally are fine with customers looking at books before buying them, I was interrupted again and showered with another blurt of anger from both the owner and her husband so I left quite disappointed at the lack of basic customer service skills. Don`t touch any book otherwise you will be treated to a nice selection of broken French explaining you why you cannot enter their store unless you buy something. I guess in some parts of the world that is called business....

I dropped by here during their Black Friday sale period since one of the books that I was…read moreinterested in showed up as being 30% off on their website. However, on their website, it mentions that prices may vary in the store which is "fine". Since I was downtown, I decided to drop by this store as opposed to my usual Indigo store that I visit (in Pointe-Claire). I looked for the book that I wanted to buy (The updated Wealthy Barber) and because it was on special on the website for 30% off, I wasn't sure if it would be located in the ground floor where they have tables with books on sale or in the personal finance shelves. I went to the personal finance shelve/section but couldn't find it. An employee noticed that I was having problems trying to find a book and asked me in French if I needed help. I answered in English and I know that French is the official language in Quebec but the employee spoke to me in French and based on his accent, I don't believe that he spoke English which I find strange since I would say that over 60% of the books are in English in Indigo and while Indigo does sell French books, the majority of their books appear to be English. I replied to him in French and told him which book I was looking for. He asked me what type of book it was and I told him that it was a personal finance book and I brought him to the aisle/shelf where I looked. He also couldn't find it so he asked another employee for help. I told her the name of the book I was looking for and she keyed it into her cellphone and said it was a personal finance or economics book. I showed her where I looked and mentioned that on their website, it shows that it is 30% off so I wasn't sure if it would be on the shelf or on one of the tables with the books on special. She called someone and I guess they told her that it was on the side of the shelf and that's where there were about 20 copies of the book. Some of the books had a sticker on it which said 20% off and some of the books didn't. She took one of the books without the sticker and handed it to me and then went to help another customer. I wasn't sure what the price would be given that my copy of the book didn't have a 20% off sticker and Indigo's website showed 30% off but also had a disclaimer that indicated "prices may vary in the store" so I asked the French speaking employee what the price for the book is. I've purchased books before so I know that books generally have their price printed as part of the cover. He took my book and looked and then pointed to the price. I then told him that the website shows 30% off, this book doesn't show any discount, and showed him some of the same book where there was a sticker on the book showing 20% off. He went to another employee working the aisles and I asked him if he could tell me what the price of this book is and he then turned the book over and said "the price is here". I then told him the same thing which is some copies of this book have a 20% off sticker on them, my copy of the book doesn't, and the Indigo website indicates that this book is 30% off online. He then told me that the price doesn't always match the website price and this is normal. I told him that I was aware of this and just wanted to know what the price of the book is since if it was regular price (or 20% off), I wouldn't buy it today and would buy it online. He told me to line up at the cash register and ask the people working there to scan it. I waited in line (there were about 15 people in front of me and 3 cash registers open). After about 3 minutes standing in line, I finally spoke with one of the employees manning the cash register. I asked her if she could tell me the price of the book and she did the same thing as the other employees which was to turn to the back cover and show me the price printed on the book's cover. I then told her that online, the price shows up as 30% off and on the shelf, there were some copies of this book with 20% off stickers on the book. She told me that the online price isn't always the same price as the in store price and I told her that I know this based on the disclaimer on the website and I just want to know what the price is since if it wasn't 30% off, I would just buy it online. She scanned the book and then told me that it was 30% off and I then told her that I would buy it. She told me the price (including tax) and I told her that I had a Plum card. She said okay and I showed it to her on my phone which she scanned. There should have been a way for me to find the correct price of the book without having to stand in line to "buy" the book and having each employee I asked about the price show me the price on the book's back cover like I've never bought a book in my life was somewhat insulting. If the book wasn't 30% off in store, it would have meant lining up in the line to buy the book for nothing since I would have just left the book there and bought it online.

I scored a 1000 piece puzzle for 4$!! The first floor is mainly kitchen stuff, stationary, CDS/DVDS, and the hottest books of the moment. The second floor is adult books. The third floor is toys and kids books. I don't read much in French, so I often skip the second floor. But the third floor is so fascinating. They have so many puzzles and new board games, I love browsing. They have a tiny section of YA books in english, it will mostly be the popular titles. I love it here. It's so cozy and inviting. I wish they had some small areas where you could sit and enjoy basking in the glory of their products, but I probably wouldn't buy anything if that was the case. It is next to a Starbucks so once you've bought something, you can go grab a coffee and start reading!
