As someone with AuDHD, it did become very overstimulating about an hour into the very large warehouse of all sorts of fascinating, unique, confusing, and quirky objects.

They had a fantastic sale going on which likely was a factor for the crowd. Highly recommend a trip out to the unusual but brilliant store!

While we were there, we noticed a line forming nearby and decided to check it out. To our surprise (and my granddaughter's absolute excitement), it was HobbyTown doing a NeeDoh drop at 10am! The line kept growing and at 28 degrees we were freezing, but there was no way we were giving up our spot. Thankfully, the owner opened a little early and everything was very well organized. They limited purchases to two per person, and since we were third in line, we had time to pick exactly what we wanted. Such kind owners and a great experience overall. We'll definitely be back to explore the rest of the store.

I also have spent more than I care to tally. It's an amazingly large store that houses more than just comics. Figures, manga, graphic novels, etc. the staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and for the most part patient with all my questions. I unfortunately enjoy indie print comics that are not a big enough draw to stock. So, I'm a pest lol

Online showed they might have some in stock, so I called first. The gentlemen I spoke with on the phone was really nice and answered my questions, which made me feel confident enough to stop by in person. When I walked in, though, the in-store experience felt a bit different and on the emptier side. The two employees at the front didn't seem very welcoming and gave off a slightly annoyed vibe. When I asked about the Pokémon cards, they seemed confused about what I was referring to until I mentioned I had called earlier and spoken to someone. They checked with their coworker, who clarified which ones he had told me about. I asked to see the packs they had behind the counter, and the interaction still felt a little tense. That said, I was able to grab the two packs, which ended up being the perfect gift for my cousin, so mission accomplished. Overall, they had what I needed, and I appreciate that the phone service was helpful. I'd probably come back if I really needed something specific, and I'm curious to explore more of what they carry. Just hoping for a warmer in-store customer service experience next time.

Well I walked out with some crafty things for a great price and almost forgot my items to pick-up...where my visit took a turn. I received an email notifiaion that my order would be returned to the shelf/refunded if I did not pick up by the end of close. When I approached the shelves where pick up orders are located I couldn't locate my order. Upon speaking with an associate I was informed that my order was put back already because they have too many orders out. It was frustrating because I received a better deal online for the items I purchased. Note to self to pick up asap after ordering!

They said a couple of days it will be done. 2weeks later - nothing. Went to the store and a girl who said she was filling in for the manager, (who got fired) said I will call you later today. 2 days later still nothing. Finally went in and it was done. Brought the frame home to re hang it. They moved the mounting brackets to the opposite end of the frame AND they were not even on the frame. I tried to hang the frame and it was on a 45 degree angle ! I will never go back there again,from now on I am going to Hobbly Lobby. I was told they do excellant work.

That's how I found AJ's after coming from another memorabilia shop that was very disappointing to say the least. I am very happy to have found such an awesome shop like this. I went there looking for some Packers memorabilia and the selection blew me away. There was a little bit of everything you can think of for every sports fan. The thing that stood out the most was the huge selection of vintage Packers 8x10 photos that were signed. I was happy to grab a few to add to my collection. I think I could have stayed there all day just looking at the photos and football cards. What's even more funny is I have never purchased a bobblehead until I came here. My very first bobblehead is one of Randlle Cobb and I couldn't have been happier. On top of the great items was also their prices being just as great. This is a shop that doesn't jack up their prices just because. You can find some amazing items for any type of budget. All of the crew that work there are super friendly and you can tell sports are their passion. Some of the stories and history on items was amazing and they all seem like you have known them for years. That my friend is the best customer service I have ever seen. I will definitely be stopping by there again in the near future. I will be able to knock out half of my Christmas shopping there on a bunch of one and of a kind items for family and friends. All while not breaking the bank. Best of luck to you all at this new location. Keep up the great work!
