    This place stinks. Come here for Pokemon tournaments. No room for parents. No bathroom and no Internet.

    Had a strange experience here last time. The cashier's face turned fire engine red when I talked to…read moreher about a product we were buying. I swear to Peter, Paul and Mary, Spencer Gifts employees and Victoria's Secret sales associates are a lot less easily flustered. You work in an adult novelty store that sells everything from lube to toys to porn to greeting cards, a married couple -- MARRIED COUPLE, mind you -- comes in wanting to buy something, and they come to you with questions about a certain item... if you're so embarrassed by customers approaching you with a question, then maybe don't work here? Just a thought. It is your job to make the shopping experience as comfortable for the customers as possible. We don't feel awkward in this type of situation, but others might, and so you really can't be a shrinking violet, or fazed by questions about this type of merchandise, if you are in this line of work. Otherwise, what's the point? Also, right after we finished paying, another customer who didn't seem to know where she was asked my husband for a jump-start on her car (when we came in, we noticed her looking at the merchandise and she seemed a bit weirded out or didn't seem to know what was what). And this is a standalone store, and she was parked close. It's not like she came from two stores down after she couldn't find anyone to help her jump-start her car. I do like this place more than Annabelle's Adult Supercenter (which does lean more toward the trashy side, if I'm being honest), but overall, a really weird experience that we do not want repeated, when and if we decide to return.

    I actually had a great experience here. The store was clean and well organized. There was a good…read morevariety of pretty much everything you could think of. I didn't feel embarrassed at all when I asked the employee about something and she was very helpful in offering suggestions and recommendations.

    I loved Player's Choice. It was the quintessential local video game store. Not a big box chain…read more Just owned and operated by guys who lived in the Triad and shared in the passion of video games and, to a lesser extent, anime and that kind of stuff. Player's Choice was ahead of its time and I'm not sure the City of High Point's population/economy was big nor "advanced" enough to sustain it. I think a store like Player's Choice was better-suited for bigger cities and metropolitan areas with larger gaming communities that had more disposable income. New and rare video games, consoles, and anime weren't cheap! Gaming can be an expensive hobby. I visited this Player's Choice store in High Point multiple times in the late 90s. My mom used to drive me over 30 minutes just to get to the flagship store in Winston-Salem on Robinhood Road: https://www.yelp.com/biz/game-on-winston-salem. However, around the time this location opened, circa 1998, I was old enough to drive. I'd either come here by myself or bring my friends. As high schoolers, we couldn't afford much here, but it was still fun to visit and browse. This location was only five minutes from our house so needless to say, I was very happy it opened. Player's Choice had game rental plans well before services like GameFly. I got some great deals on used anime OVAs on VHS. Even in the late 90s, I could tell this store was struggling. During my visits, business in the store couldn't compare to the business I saw at the Robinhood location. Across the country, video game shops like this have been closing in droves because the demand for physical media isn't what it used to be. The Robinhood store, which eventually changed its name to Game On, officially closed on January 4, 2020. This used to be the Staples shopping center, but Harbor Freight is now the anchor in Staples' old space. And today, a Boost Mobile store is where Player's Choice used to be. Thanks for the memories, Player's Choice of High Point. Gone, but never forgotten.

    As I was driving around the College Hill Historic District neighborhood of Greensboro, North…read moreCarolina, while waiting to attend the Triad Squad Yelp Elite Omakase Shushi Dinner at Sushi Republic, I happened to discover this long-standing, "Old School" comic book shop, just a short walk from the UNCG campus. After having been selected as number 4 of Yelp's Top 50 most prolific Elites of 2025, a year when I also was awarded the Yelp Triad Squad Photographer of the Year Award at their Yelpies 2025 Award Ceremony, an event that honored the highest-performing Yelp Elites, and where last year I was awarded the Yelp Triad Squad Yelper of the Year Award, I decided that this year, as an All-Star Yelp Elite, I not only wanted to be the first to discover new restaurants and businesses, and bring them to the attention of the public, but also to uncover those found in hidden paths that for one reason or another have not reached the public in its totality. Parts Unknown The Comic Book Store in Greensboro, North Carolina is a perfect example. I immediately found a side street parking space and parked my pearl white Lexus there and walked over to the store. It was a pleasant walk and the building where the store was located had an interesting graffiti on the outside, side wall. Inside I was greeted by a friendly and very knowledgeable employee who has also been a good friend of the owner for years. He told me how the owner John Hitchcock had owned and operated this business for over 36 years with around 25 years in this location and how the business originally opened up in Cotton Mill Square in 1989. How Hitchcock had always had a passion for comic books and started collecting them when he was 10. He started selling comic books in a store downtown 37 years ago and this led to his opening his own store. Hitchcock's favorite comic book creator was Alex Toth, an artist who had been well known for his expressive line and masterful storytelling. Hitchcock and him had been friends and collaborated on a book called Dear John: The Alex Toth Doodle Book. He showed me a copy of the book that was being sold there. The store had an inviting atmosphere and as I walked through the store it was like entering another world. The uniqueness of this comic book shop was that it exclusively specializes in comic books and books about comic books. It had in its inventory some rare and expensive ones like The Invincible Iron Man selling for $2,000, a Green Lantern one selling for $1,500, and a Special 25th Anniversary Issue of the Amazing Spiderman selling for $1,200, among other well known and rare ones in excellent condition. College students enjoy visiting the store because it's like a live history museum of comic books and also carries many of the current looked-after ones. And the store brings back happy memories to old timers and makes valuable merchandise accessible to comic book collectors of all ages. I highly recommend it if ever your in the area. To me it was an extraordinary and exhilarating experience.

    Been getting into comic books as of late, and this store has been phenomenal in helping me get what…read moreI want. Also as as student the 10% discount goes a long way! John the owner is also super helpful and knowledgeable. Definitely a worthwhile spot for comics in Greensboro.
