This was one of my stops.Firstly how does a legendary video rental place that has been around for years have no reviews? This is baffling. It's small with tons of selection and feels very old school. Register is a very high counter and myself being short I appreciated the comedy that he couldn't hear me ask questions but over all nice dude. Cheap previously viewed videos. Pics of some that I am contemplating. I love the interaction of renting videos, I am still one of the few whom rents video and this guys collection is awesome. I was reminded of movies that I need to see sooner rather than later and some underdog gems that require my viewing.

I got annoyed with Netflix and also with those RedBox movie rentals they have at Safeway. The RedBox is a rip off and has poor selection. I find it so much better to get movies from here.

I have been going to Willow Video for awhile now, and I have always had great customer service and…read moreenjoyed shopping at their store all these years. This time unfortunately was unfortunately not the case. I stopped in to pickup a double pack blu ray dvd movies from them. I only realized later I already owned this one and wanted to bring it back to exchange it for something else. I have exchanged things in the past without a problem and they had been very accommodating before so didn't think it would be an issue this time. I explained to one of the staff members the situation, her name is Jo and she told me that because one of the discs had this green hue and scratches on it, that she they the store would not have accepted this in to sell at the store, therefore they could not have sold it to me and she refused to take it back. I was not aware of this as I did not check or look at the time of purchasing these blu ray dvds as I trusted they claimed they had a strict policy of checking their discs everytime they are traded in. It was another staff of her's that sold it to me and I didn't check the disc nor would I have known what to look for as it was only my second time buying a blu ray movie from them as I bought usually mostly game cartridges from them and I trusted them to sell the customer good condition discs if she claimed they were so picky about buying used discs. This is obviously a lie as if she claimed they checked it how would they have sold me a disc in such poor condition? I was very upset to hear this and I left the first time and came back the next day wanting to resolve the issue and see if they could rectify the situation and I had asked to speak with the owner manager and this staff member Jo straight away cut me off and said only she deals with these situations as the owners don't deal with it and she was very firm on not accepting it back, despite them selling this in the first place to me and even implied I switched the discs out and tried to return it to them as it had been close to the 30 day exchange/return policy. I do not live in the area and I was working a lot therefore I couldn't come in earlier. Jo then instead of trying to help me she then proceeded to tell me that I can take the resurfacing or or leave it and I do not have to come back to shop here again if I was not happy. She was extremely rude, impatient and very unprofessional dealing with this situation. She obviously does not care about her customers at all despite them being a longtime customer supporting the business. I was very shocked and disappointed to hear this from willow video. They will sell you defective product and then proceed to lie and accuse you of wrong doing and deny that they made a mistake in selling defective product to their customers instead of rectifying the mistake. This is the worst and most appalling customer service I have ever received from any business.

I live in Poco and it's a shame to have such a terrible retro video game store here…read more They have a great selection but this is the most overpriced retro store in the lower mainland. There prices are about 20% more than the highest eBay price. I would venture to say 30 to 40% more than press start in new west or game bit in mission. Honestly I wanted super Mario Allstars for my snes. This guy wanted $69 for it. I went to press start and it was $29. That's $40???? Over double the competition. Avoid this con man at all costs. Seriously there is like 10 retro game stores in the lower mainland. Take a drive, it will literally cost less in gas then to deal with this bozo. Or order the most expensive copy of what your looking for on eBay. You will still save money. I was in there yesterday, their games are also in shit condition. There snes and nes games. So not only are they ridiculously expensive, they are ridiculously expensive shit. :)
