In keeping with funky, unique, mostly one-of-a-kind vibe going on in and around The Lab, this store…read moredoes not disappoint. While they have art, it's very unusual...some were way cool, and some were just bizarre. While they have books, those, too, are very unique and interesting. We didn't spend as long as I would have liked, but we can always return !!! It was a cool store for sure.

I'm sad to write this review. I had a gift certificate for As Issued that was given to me in 2013…read more After we moved, the certificate was lost in a box. But, I recently found it! I asked the store if they would still honor it and they said they "have no way of proving it's authenticity." You may not know, but their gift certificates from that time were printed on old library catalog cards and signed by the owner. Pretty easy to see that mine is authentic. I'm more upset because there is a law in California which states "expiration dates, service fees and dormancy fees are prohibited by law for single-store cards." If I misread the law, I apologize. Nevertheless, I'm still upset that I couldn't use my gift after being so happy to initially receive and then to find it again after so long.

I was on my way to Lien hue 2 next door but got distracted by their beautiful dresses and skirts…read more Great prices too. I bought a cute long skirt here for $15. The ladies were sweet and very helpful with their opinions on which looked best since I was being indecisive. I was in a rush so I hope to come back & check out the other outfits they have.

They have a great collection of masks and in a ton of different designs and styles. They range from…read more$3-$5. Children's and adults alike. The people that work here are also very friendly. If you need good quality, but cheap masks, make sure to stop here! Not only do they have a variety of masks, they carry clothes, face-shields, hats, basically anything you can think of.

I came here to donate to the food pantry in the back of the store. It is really hard to find…read morepantries like this anywhere in OC. I had planned to do some shopping too, but it was really crowded with other individuals dropping off donations (one woman that was so incredibly rude and pushed me and my stuff out of her way for absolutely no reason) and then also people coming to grab some items at the same time. The few items I did look at on my way out were priced a lot higher than I was expecting so I chose to go on about my day. I think I honestly just imagined a different experience, however it is nice they have this food pantry and it seems to help a lot of people.

My friend and I attended an Open Mic after hearing about it on Instagram. We honestly expected a…read morequiet evening with a couple of people, and we were happily surprised to arrive to a bustling space. We almost resigned ourselves to standing in the back, but we were quickly and kindly ushered to a couch. Everyone who went up to the mic was so, so good. All genres were represented: poetry, fiction, nonfiction, children's, comics. Two people even gave rousing music performances. Many people read in Spanish, and every single person read with humor, heart, and honesty. There were a lot of laughs and a lot of tears. The store truly is a safe space. Do I feel bad for not buying any books by Hispanic or Latino authors? A little bit... which is why I promise to come back and keep supporting this wonderful, beautiful, meaningful haven. MUCHAS GRACIAS!!!

They have rows and rows of records, CDs. Top and bottom of…read morethe racks were full. Most albums were $20 or more. The attendant stood toward the rear of the store and waited for any questions or Sales. If you have a lot of time just come in and look and you are sure to find a gem. It's worth the effort. We got Stephanie Mills album for $20!

Thought he was a cool guy from prior experiences, I wanted an offer of at least $10 for 40+ dvds…read morethat I brought in but he said he would take it as a donation because of the condition of the cd's... Zero value?? Really? Not even anything for the 'Revenge Of The Sith' BluRay?? Never coming here again. Even a pawn shop has better offers & manners, unbelievable.

Very good prices, haven't been there in a while but always had what I wanted at a reasonable price.read more

Adjacent to the heart of downtown Fullerton (where street parking and lot parking is free on…read moreSundays), this cool little comic book store offers a decent mix of new and old comics. The staff was very knowledgeable about comics and eager to banter about them. Prices are slightly high but the selection is top notch. The walls are covered in original fantasy/sci fi art and the bathroom walls are 360 degrees decorated with cool posters. In the back of the store are tables and comfy couches for gamers to gather and play.

Large selection and space, plus staff were helpful. Lot of…read morevariety in Japanese manga, dc, marvel, image comics, omnibuses, single issues, variants covers, etc.

Although I've only stopped by Donnie's a few times during the Patches & Pins Expo, it's always such…read morea vibe every time I visit. From pins and stickers to blind boxes and other cool collectibles, I love browsing everything they have on display. They're always on top of the latest trends, which makes it even more fun to shop around. The store is laid out really nicely--everything is organized, easy to browse, and there's so much to look at. Anytime I'm in the area, this is a must-stop for me. So If you're into collecting pins or other fun collectibles, Donnie's is 100% worth the visit.

I got my Labubus here just last week! They've got a lot of cool things in stock. Price is higher…read morebut it's worth not waiting in line and such. Only thing I will mention is the associate I came across was not very friendly so it made me leave the store earlier and not browse as much as I would've liked. She did not say anything rude but there was no greeting when I entered the store, no smile, just very terse and I could feel her being annoyed ( maybe because I was there right at opening ) overall it felt uninviting. But large selection and that's what I went for so it worked out.

One of my favorite vinyl stops! They have a good selection of everything from Power Pop to…read moreClassical and everything in between, plus they have a huge selection of bins that range from $1 to ~$10, lots of random gems to be found. :) The owner is friendly and knowledge, and it's just a chill atmosphere. Oh, and they have a lot of hardware hanging around as well, so if you're in need of a turntable, amp, or speakers this is a good place to look as well. If you're in the area you owe it a look!

I randomly found this store recently. Funny story I actually had visited his other shop before the…read morepandemic. It was located on 4th street in Downtown Santa Ana. I checked it out a few times and I was sad to see it had closed. Here I found an amazing record: Linda Rondstadt - Canciones de mi Padre. It was at incredible quality and at a great price. Anyway I'm so happy he opened a new shop. The owner is super friendly. He really loves music. Check it out. And don't forget to check out the gems in the bargain bins!
