3/5/21 Another store I went to went I wasn't buying comics…read more I had a habit of collecting classical music from movie soundtracks. This is also where I picked up Marilyn Manson's Sweet Dreams. Yeah I know, not my finest moment, but I was young. I also was tired of hearing Christian music being played next door to my room. Can't say I made many friends this way, but some of the Christian group already made their minds up about me anyhow. I ended up joining another Christian group that wasn't as judgemental, but that is another story. Now Hear This was a store where you could trade in your old music and get credit for other music. I did this a lot and found great selections. Right now Marilyn Manson is the only name I can remember. Oh yeah, Marcy Playground (Sex&Candy), The Cure and Scream 1&2 Soundtracks. From the photos I have seen, the place looks different. This was back in 1997 and 1998. Yeah, I am that old. This store is great. Hope to revisit Marshall University and other places again one day.

Nice little shop in WV. Didn't mind my visit at all. The gentleman behind the counter was helpful…read moreand talkative. The organization of the shop is a bit random. Don't like that they don't have any dividers in the vinyl or band call-outs. Makes it hard to find what I'm looking for. Pricing is a little all over the place. It's either really high or marked down decently. I did walk away with a few albums that I had wanted. Overall I was pleased but probably wouldn't go out of my way to make the trip again.

This was one of the first places we saw, and as soon as we spotted a Spiderman blow up riding on a dinosaur inside, we knew we had to check this place out. The Inner Geek is great for all ages, and has all kinds of stuff to go through. They seem to primarily be about books/comics, but you can also find action figures, Funko Pops and trading cards here too! Everyone here is really nice... Love this store!

The last few times I've been home I've spent at least two hours in this store. I love it, so much,…read moreand their mail ordering is amazing too! They have great service, amazing things to look at (and buy!) and best of all, their pricing is reasonable. Love The Inner Geek and its people and service, thank you! I'll be in next time I'm home and keep an eye out for SPN and ElfQuest for me!

Great little coffee place for those looking to do a bit of work or just hang out for a while. A…read morefriend and I came here with the intent to check out the fall festivities, though the rain had put a stop to them sadly. Still, this place made the trip worthwhile and I enjoyed a nice hot chocolate (and complimentary Halloween-themed shortbread cookie!). The barista was pleasant and answered our questions about the environs. We only checked out the bookstore section briefly though it did have an excellent selection, and even had a typewriter set up for aspiring typists to play around with. As a typewriter owner, it's always cool to see opportunities for the next generation to get a chance to work with these machines (if only so they can appreciate how much easier word processors are when it comes to editing!) I would gladly come back here again, and hopefully take more time to check out the books as well. Overall: 4.5/5 stars ---- Pros: - Great drinks. - Pleasant staff. - Quiet place to do work or look for a new book to dive into. - Easy street parking nearby. Cons: - Most tables are two tops, so if your group is three or more, you may have to improvise your seating arrangement.

Could totally see them filming a hallmark movie here for the ambiance. Lots of local artists work for sale, too.

"Good Stuff..cheap"…read more Yeah it's the Ollie's motto. I've been to a few, usually I can walk in and out and stay on budget. I don't know if all Ollie's are doing this promo or not but when I went they had an ad in the book section Fill a shopping basket with as many as you can fit (with a certain color dot on the back of the book) For $2.99 For a bibliophile who loves a deal, lemme tell you I put my books in that basket like a well skilled game of Tetris. Anywho-standard Ollie's, good stuff. Well organized . Clean. And very polite employees.

My boyfriend and I went to look around and buy a few things, he's never been to an Ollie's before…read moreand I gotta say it was probably not the best first impression. Everything was fine, though everything was extremely messy and cluttered. We were followed by an employee after we looped around the store to look at everything. It was quite persistent and discomforting to be followed (not so discreetly) by an employee, we had looped back towards the floor panels and rugs of the store as we're renovating a room in our home and wanted to see prices. This employee was on our behinds (to put it nicely) so we moved out of the way assuming he had to get to the backroom where there was a staff area. He had stood beside us for 2-3 minutes just watching us and then pretending to go through the floor panels. I understand staff must have precaution for customers stealing or causing issues as I've worked in retail for some years, but to be persistently behind customers and invading their space while they're just trying to shop and look around without any cause? Unacceptable. We will not be shopping at this Ollie's again. I will also be averting my friends and family from shopping here as well.

Not a bad mall at all, especially for West Virginia. In fact, the Huntington Mall is actually…read morebigger than any mall I encounterd while living in New Orleans. The mall has a decent food court, a Ruby Tuesdays, a movie theater and a Dick's Sporting Goods, not to mention all of your usual outlets, such as Hot Topic, Starbucks, etc. etc. Of course this mall does not compare to anything in any major city, but for West Virginia it's not bad.

It is a clean and nice mall, five stars for that, but there is literally nothing inside this mall…read moreand definitely nothing inside this town. The people who live here are extremely nice, but ignorant of the world that exists around them. There is literally nothing inside the whole state of West Virginia.

I liked The Batman Animated Series , but I especially like the voice of Harley Quinn. Thank you Arleen Sorkin. Arleen Sorkin definitely set the standard for women doing Harley Quinn voice. The book Mad Love was brought to my attention when I visited Comic World one day. Harley Quinn went through a series of changes, but the Batman Animated Series and The Arkham Series Games are my favorite looks. Margot Robbie was okay as Harley Quinn, but I did not like the Bootyshorts she had to wear through the movie. I don't feel this is how Harley Quinn is. I always received great service at this store and great advice. I also appreciated the advance calls for comics I was intrested in. Great times at this shop.

This was my go-to comic book store when I worked in Huntington. The prices were reasonable and…read morethe staff was friendly. The owner was an expert on a claim that I handled involving the loss of a comic book collection. The report that Kathy prepared helped to resolve a sticky claim. Street parking is convenient. If you are in the Huntington area, I recommend a trip to Comic World.
