This is a rental store that reminds me of what Videomatica used to be. Not that I was even there…read moreto rent vids - I was there to buy. And it's a barrage of amazing titles new and old. Plus they have DVD, Blu-ray and even laserdisc. Counter gent was an old school movie geek like myself and was super fun to chat movies and the like with. I even headed off to the new sales Videomatica store afterwards and since I bought very little, went back to purchase more including a lessor-seen but reasonably priced Atom Egoyan collection of early films. (They covet the greats!) This store has it all in both rentals and sales - both of which are reasonable. LOVE THIS STORE!!!!!

On-street parking is always available for a quarter, with grocery and liquor store on same block plus quick eats across the street. Browsing with friends is priceless.

Late charge (over 7 days for regular titles) is just 50¢/day.

I would rather take the time to drive to his shop than to order from Shaw on Demand. Also he has many videos that Shaw does not carry, like The Gods Must Be Crazy 1 an 2 and the Danish version of the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo trilogy. Even if his videos were more expensive that Shaw I would still go there but they are not. The store also has a heart! When my redneck brother had a heart attack and was recovering from surgery I knew that a few seasons of Trailer Park Boys would cheer him up and Joey gave me 3 seasons for a week for just $3! Unheard of in this capitalist world.

Tom's Video advertises itself as an adult/family video store. I don't know what kind of family you…read morehave, but both the store and website lean heavily towards the adult end of the spectrum. The adult section is blocked off, of course, but you still probably wouldn't want to take kids here. Curious little buggers. On the regular movie side of the store, they have every movie imaginable, and it's up to date too - with stuff I didn't even know had been released on video. The staff are extremely knowledgeable - movie geeks in the best sense of the word. And unlike those other big-chain stores, Tom's is open 24 hours a day. It's a pretty interesting place to go in the middle of the night.

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.

Reset Games is one of my go-to game stores in Bellingham. They have an amazing selection of games…read moreranging from the earliest Atari games to modern console titles. Also, they have many different consoles there, and at good prices too! Sometimes they will have rarer consoles in stock like the Atari Jaguar or the Virtual Boy. They also have great deals on consoles. The prices may seem higher than market for the consoles, but that is because if you buy a console, it comes with OEM cables and controllers included, not 3rd party junk. For example, I got a VG condition non-yellowed SNES for $90 with all the previously mentioned accessories included. The staff are happy to accept a return within 30 days of a purchase with a full refund, which is very nice if an item stops working after a few days. As for trade-ins or selling, Reset Games will not currently accept defective/broken items as they do not offer a repair service. If you want to sell broken/defective items, go to Cosmic Games, as they offer a good repair service. The only slight downside is that the game prices are sometimes a bit higher than competing stores in the area, but their massive selection of games makes up for that. In conclusion, Reset games is a great game store. I always love stopping by. It's a must-visit for gamers.

I have gone there MANY times and got faulty items. We got 3rd party n64 games that are spray…read morepainted green with dead batteries so you can't save which we brought back multiple times. Every copy was bad. Every console I have gotten from there was busted and not tested properly. Multiple PS2 slims with dying disk drives. So, I went to their sister store down south. [over a 3-hour drive] Their staff told me they tested the ps2 they had. We drove back home and within 5 min the 1st controller port was bad and making the controllers loose connection and power. (how can you miss this if it was properly tested?) Also, that ps2 couldn't read disks towards the end of the disk. We have sold them a console ourselves and watched how they test consoles. They turn it on, throw a disk in, and if the disk reads, they just shut it off. There is no performance testing done, or everything I have said above would have been caught. BEWARE OF CONSOLES YOU BUY FROM HERE. ASK TO DO YOUR OWN TESTING BEFORE HANDING THEM MONEY, AS THEY WILL NOT GIVE BACK A REFUND, ONLY STORE CREDIT! They lost a customer that goes in spending 500 to 800 bucks a visit today. Their staff (dude with blue hair) told me they don't normally return consoles until I told him I spoke to someone in a higher position about this already, then, he wanted me to fill him in on what I was told so he could follow their policy better. Seemed like he was trying to cut me off on returns until I notified him, but I knew better already. Cosmic Games not only sell everything that Reset Games has, but they also do repairs, and their employees don't try to lie to me. They have made 1000s off of me and counting. Any issues I have had, they fix without charge as far as consoles or handhelds that I have purchased goes. Cosmic Games IS THE SUPIRIOR STORE costs more but WAY MORE accommodating and professional.

We got to choose from breaded or non-breaded and a few different flavours of wings like Salt & Pepper, Smokey BBQ, Sweet Heat, and Spicy Buffalo. It was about a 20-30 minute wait for the wings so we did find it a bit long. The service was average and nothing notable. But when the wings did arrive, they were served with a ranch dipping sauce and it was hot & fresh! We got a few more rounds afterwards (that didn't look or weren't plated as nicely but still tasted good) and enjoyed it a lot. It was $25 for AYCE wings but it also included a $10 credit to play any of their arcade games. That's a pretty good deal in our opinions! We'd likely return for more wings if we feel like eating abnormal amounts again!
