    This supply house for artists is as good as it gets. I no longer live near Denver but I always…read morevisit. I always find items I had no idea that I had to have! Over 30 years ago I bought my Holy Grail Fountain Pen here.

    Used to like this place, but now it's just become a no-go. They look like they have a lot of stuff,…read morebut every time I go, they're out of whatever I went there for --- usually several things, as I always go with a list, since it's a bit of a drive for me. Their watercolor brush selection is quite skimpy; they never seem to have the size I need or type I want, and even weeks later they still don't have that size/type in stock. Same for specific watercolors. They have an entire display of Daniel Smith watercolors, yet the very color I need, they're out of. One day one of the staff spent 15 minutes checking all the other brands to see if they had that color in *any* other brand -- nope. And it was a common color like Prussian blue. Watercolor sketchbooks? Unless you like blocks (which I personally can't stand), you won't find much. A small display of Hand-book sketchbooks, which are mostly for drawing and not watercolor. The watercolor ones are 200gsm, not 300gsm. (Which I was able to order from Amazon for the same price as Meininger was charging for the 200gsm.) Drawing pens? You're in luck if you do manga. If you use probably the most popular brand, Uni-Pin fineliner, forget it. They don't even sell them. (They seem to prefer Sigma Microns.) Watercolor pencils? Sure, if you want the really large expensive sets. If you want to try them out with a set of 24 Goldfaber Aquas, nope. Art storage? Slim pickings. A few zippered pouches. The dollar store has a better selection. Overall, they're out of whatever I need when I need it, and they won't be getting in anytime soon. Sometimes they can get stuff sent from their CO Springs location, but that means a second trip back to the store, when I only wanted to drive there once. (The neighborhood is awful.) Also, their website is very hit or miss, and *won't* tell you if they have something in stock in the store. Sometimes you put in a search term that will return "no item found" when I know for a fact they sell that item in the store. Go do a search for "Lamy Safari" and you'll see what I mean. They have a selection of Lamy Safari pens in the store, but only converters and lead refills on their website. Prices are high, sometimes by $10-15 or more over what you'd pay elsewhere. I was looking for the Albrecht Durer 24 watercolors set, which they were selling for full price at $72. I had just seen this same set on Blick Art for half that, $37.50. I mentioned this to one of the staff and his response was, "Yeah, well they can buy in bulk and we can't." Okay, fair enough, but wow, even with shipping I could get it far, far cheaper online. As for returns, ha! Don't go by their printed return policy. I mistakenly bought a quill watercolor brush that's way too big for my needs; called the store to see if they have the next size down, which they do, but was told I could not exchange it "because the manager says it's too hard to tell if a brush has been used or not." Then why doesn't the return policy state that? See the attached photo for their posted Return Policy. Now show me where it says "brushes can't be returned because you can't tell if they've been used or not." The staff person on the phone said I could bring in the brush and speak to the manager about it, but I will not be doing that. I've encountered him before: he's one of those people who thinks he's hilarious and is in your face whether you need help or not. Sorry, I refuse to deal with him, so I'll just keep my overpriced $47 synthetic brush and try to find a use for it. Some of the staff are pleasant and nice to work with; we even got to know some by name. But overall, shopping at Meininger's has just become too much of a hassle and we won't be shopping there again.

    I've been coming in this place for a long, long time. Decades. Going back to when they were in…read moreCherry Creek area. I understand how it's work to keep everything updated on the website. But it's worth it. Now that they do not, I find it interesting that some of the staff there will bitch about Amazon and how it's had a horrible effect on the business. Or seem so impatient on the phone when I called to ask questions about what I used to be able to look up online. What's my option for shopping? I can call down and if they're busy, no one can go look for anything, I can come down and search around, and hopefully they have what I want. Or... If I know exactly what I want, I jump on Amazon, look it up and order it. And let me be clear: I really am not a fan of Amazon. I think they're the devil. I am more than willing to pay more for the convenience of local store stores, and I also like supporting local businesses. Wizard's Chest needs to figure out what it wants to be. I'd suggest bringing back the ability to look up items online, and failing that, make sure all the staff understands positive service for people who call up and ask questions. I'd be more than willing to pay a little more for the convenience of picking it up the same day.

    So I came here on a friend's advice, though prior experience has taught me not to shop here as they…read morenever have what I'm looking for and i wasn't wrong once again. If you're looking for costume accessories like super hero pants not leggings. There is a difference that the employee who I was asking did not know the difference and i politely explained to her. And other accessories than this is not the place. There is a fantastic costuming store off colfax that has basically all your needs.

I've been visiting him since he was at his other shop to when he went out on his own. I'm saying a decade if not longer. That just shows how much trust and loyalty he is and I am to his impeccable work. Most who know me knows I'm all about local businesses supporting and he is definitely a local. I know there are cheaper big box stores but as they say you pay for what you get and I did try those others before and was disappointed. I'm sticking with Robert through and through. This visit he framed two of my passions. Anti Hero Blade that a famous artist friend Christopher Clark sketched for me and an original comic book of Blade. With his impeccable taste he helped pick out the frames and they turned out great. And an added plus he gives military discounts.

I had the pleasure of working with Robert Platz (owner of RPO Framing and Gallery) during 2 events this last holiday season, along with joining him during one of his gallery openings. I have nothing but respect and admiration for this guy and the space he's created. He is a true community builder, artist and emissary of local arts! His eye for talent, his eye for matting and framing, his joy in community from poetry readings to live music to racing watch parties... he's just a true jewel for the art community in Denver. If you're looking for new work in your space or have been waiting for the perfect moment to frame that treasured piece, you'd be doing yourself a disservice not swinging by RPO Framing and Gallery first... plus, it'll save ya the time and headache of shopping anywhere else!
