I am a novice at dollhouse making, and this place is amazing…read more At my first visit Marge gave me the tour of all the massive dollhouses she has on display in the window, which was absolutely lovely. I can only wish to skill up to that level! She also has many stories on how the large houses are used in movies. But as a novice, she guided me through what she had in stock, which changes more frequently than I could imagine. If you see something, you truly have to snag it as it most likely is the only one she has. She explained how lighting works, which guided me to choose battery operated fixtures. The shop has items I haven't even seen online, so to see them in person is great to gauge how it would look in my own dollhouse. This is a hobby store, not a toy store. These items are incredibly delicate and fragile. I understand Marge needing to remind everyone to be careful, as a precaution. When an ornate item can be upwards of $150, precautions are appreciated! The prices are very fair for such a niche hobby. I would choose My Doll's House over Amazon and Hobby Lobby any day. Support small business! Encourage niche hobbies!

He even tracked down the original artist for the painting to try to learn what materials were used. He handled over a hundred books in less than a month, as well.

We even had some great conversation about the collection, his process, and art restoration in general. Henri will be my first call if I ever need help with art restoration again.

There is a large free parking lot attached in front and on the side and inside there are many rows of different toys with all different sorts of pricing. The guy working was a bit shy and did not introduce himself or check in with us at all, but I could see that this place would be a great option if you are a collector because they just have such a huge selection of things. They also have a race track for car racing, which I'm sure can get popular at certain times for certain clubs. I would recommend this place if you are searching for anything little toy car related.

That place felt massive. This location does feel a little smaller, but it's still massive. Plenty of vendors and variety, some shady vendors that will overcharge too much or just be plain rude, but overall it's a great experience as you will find very niche and interesting/weird stuff. You will also find vendors selling things for great prices. Make sure to bring cash and most vendors will give you a discount. The only downside is even with the ridiculously large parking area, it STILL fills up every single day. It's literally always busy, so prepare to walk a lot. Always fun to visit every once in a while.

One time, I was looking at buying some TCG cards, when a guy bought a whole booster box, opened them all, picked out the couple cards he wanted and asked the vender if they wanted to buy the rest back. Vender refused, so I offered $20 for everything. It was amazing. Now, it's gotten way too commercial for my liking. Everything cost way more than they should, and You can't find a deal anywhere. Last week, I came in looking for a couple MTG to fill out my cEDH deck. Seller says they price things competitive off TCGPlayer website, and then quoted me $6over the tcg price for a $20 card. He says they have to charge more since the booth costs them money. So... I could just buy online, save the upcharge, and you will have to pay for shipping? Thanks but no thanks.
