This is our son's favorite comic book store. I swear he could spend hours in here looking at comics…read moreif we'd let him. They have a huge variety and I feel like they are all priced well. They also have "retro" toys, posters, and games (video, card, and board). They have tables set up in the back because I think they have tournaments. At the least they play card and board games. We've met a few different employees here and all of them have been amazing people with a wealth of knowledge! This is why my husband and I like supporting this small business.

This is the most organized comic store I've ever been to in my life.

They have a good accounting of their inventory and are able to fish out something if you ask quite efficiently. In my opinion, this is a MUST VISIT comic book store for collectors or comic enthusiasts who are visiting SLC.

The girl behind the counter said yeah they just keep going up. I later went Gamers Asylum and played in their tournament for $42, got the same Pre-Release pack, but I got to play to win even more packs. This shop charged me double, and didn't even offer a tournament. I feel like this place just stole $80 from me. What an embarrassment for a store. I'm going to tell everyone I know to avoid this place. I hope they go out of buisness.

Walking around the Gateway District in downtown Salt Lake City when we came across this comic…read morebook/hobby store. We actually found this place unexpectedly right after parking the car in the nearby parking garage and my LTP, who enjoys collecting comic books, wanted to pop in and see what they had here. If you're a comic book nerd, then this is the place for you. They have a lot of awesome stuff in here. All their comic book selections that they have available are in boxes located in the back of the store and are listed in alphabetic order for easy browsing. They also have comic books that are permanently sealed and can't be opened. When I was little, I was a huge, huge fan of the Sonic the Hedgehog comics, and seeing some of those here brought me back to my childhood. Along with comic books, they also have puzzles, trading cards, board games, and a collection of the world's smallest things, like the world's smallest Godzilla and the world's smallest Barbie doll. They had the world's smallest Magic 8 ball as well and I tested one while it was in the package. It was so small that I couldn't read the text after I shook it. We love working on puzzles in our free time and we would've bought one if we weren't working on one back at home right now. This was a cool place to step into. Very spacious and lots to choose from, you could spend hours and hours in here.

I'll be honest, about a year ago, this store was a little unorganized and didn't smell all that…read moregreat. Lately though things seem to have changed for the better! I very frequently stop by anytime I'm at the mall just to see all the new stuff they have. They always have a pretty wide selection of items. Probably a little better than your average game store. Only reason I give 4 stars is because the one and only time I actually went to the mall specifically to come here, I didn't have the best experience. I called them prior to coming to ask if they buy cards. They said they did and I told them I was on my way. When I got there , they told me that they wouldn't actually pay cash for the cards and only do so on Wednesdays. Seems like that is something they should have told me when I was on the phone with them. That said, I still recommend coming here and will continue to do so myself

My friend was showing us around Trolley Square. She said after lunch that we needed to head to…read morethis book store. The way it's set up was really cool! We were on the second floor entrance. Honestly walking in, it looked like a normal book store until she walked me to the back. Walking through the gate door is where the view changes. I was in awwww! How cool is the set up of this place. I had no clue it was a 2 leveled book store. It was neat looking at the lower level. The shelves prettily speckled with color cause of all the books. I was able to look at all the old school historical books when we were walking in and out. How neat to have so much history on your shelves! We were in a time schedule so I wasn't able to really dig into them. I have seen some pretty neat places while I'm here in SLC for a bit. I'm happy I got to add this book store to that neat list. I'm hoping to make it back so I can check out the lower level.

Found a good art book. Felt like my college days. Totally beats shopping books online! The staff isn't very friendly; they are more like librarians with attitudes.

The entire time I was there, the store owners were yelling at each other and the woman would not stop cursing the man the entire time she walked around the store fixing stuff. After a while, I ended up finding a book that I wanted to give my niece when the woman came by, fixed some random book on the shelf behind me and said, "Don't touch the books if you aren't going to put them back correctly." Excuse me? I didn't even touch that book. I immediately put the book I was going to buy back and walked out the store. Incredibly rude to each other and their customers. Many shelves are bending and I wouldn't be surprised if they broke and books came crashing down on someone's head. Stay away from here!

The moment you enter, you're engulfed by the smell of old books - what would you expect! The store had a tremendous collection but it was hard to navigate or just browse. The store owner was very knowledgeable and is able to tell you where things are located, if you know what you're looking for (such as specific author and title). I didn't spend too much time in the store. I was just accompanying a friend who wanted to browse Downtown Salt Lake City. It's definitely a place to find unique trinkets/gift.
