    Avoid this location at all costs. And I don't mean because it's GameStop, which is bad enough, but…read morebecause THIS location is a NIGHTMARE. This was my experience today: They are limiting people to ten or so in the store. That's fine, that's not on them. So there was a huge line. There was a greeter there whose job it was to check on the customers waiting in the line. He asks what they are looking for, presumably to expedite this excruciating process. I asked for a copy of AC: Valhalla. The greeter assured me that they had it. A 20-minute wait in line, I grab my game. And immediately I am brought to a stop. This GameStop location has only one cashier open at all times. Which would be fine...except for the woman behind the counter not only trying to upsell everything in the store that wasn't nailed down, but making chit chat with the customer and keeping the rest of us waiting. 25-minute wait before one of the other clerks had the clear idea to get the game I had picked out, out of the back. And came back empty-handed. They did NOT in fact have AC:Valhalla *despite all the assurances from the greeter it was in stock*. And the whole reason they do this (display games they don't have in stock) is that they're perfectly content to waste your time as they assure you they can order for you. I don't know how much of this is workers enforcing the corporate policy and how much is incompetence on behalf of the greeter but a 45-minute wait to come out of a store empty-handed when it would have taken the greeter a moment to ask the OTHER cashier, who had nothing to do because of the covid policy, to check the back for the game. But no, they chose to waste my time in the hopes that they could still make a sale by assuring me goods that they DID NOT HAVE. I am never setting foot in that place again TL;dr: Dishonesty and incompetence dominated this shopping experience making what should have been a routine errand a nightmare *Zero* stars.

    I miss when the Newbury Comics was by the Sears & had two floors. It's been a while since they…read moremoved from that location to the other side of the mall by the Target escalators and Lego store. Much smaller now, BUT much more organized and easy to find stuff. I have been on the hunt for sonny angel hippers and was elated to find them here yesterday! They are behind the counter at check out for $20/each, limit 4 per person. I originally decided to just buy two and we opened the blind boxes in the car. I was hoping to get a pink one, however, unfortunately did not hit. Now, it is 6 min before closing and we figured, what the heck? Why not go back to get two more hahaha. So, we rushed back into the mall (special thanks to the workers for letting us pick up two more, last min before close!) and bought two more. Anyways, I ended up getting one pink one and a blue mouse this time around! Total for 4 was ~$84. I love what I ended up getting though! Definitely a sucker for blind boxes from time to time, but it's so fun ;)

    Since moving to the other side of the mall, the store has gotten more organized and feels refreshed…read moreeven though it's smaller. They have whole racks of manga books, pop funko bobbles (some exclusives etc) and a glass case of chase pops (not retail pricing) They have hobby merch, accessories, tee shirts, music, tidbits all about. Glad they still surviving and offering products to the south shore! The store employees are attentive if you need help, they folks i used to know there have since moved on but looks like the store is run well still!

    After going tot he one in the Natik mall we gave this location a try! This one is much closer to us…read morein Boston. So this location works like any other build a bear store. We had gone because from our last purchase we got a free $10 off on our next purchase in the store. So we got to walking around and found one we liked. We then went over and picked out a voice box this time around. (Last time we got the beating heart!) You then wait in line to have your bear stuffed! When its your turn they then ask you if you would like your bear soft, hard or some wheres in the middle? We picked the middle. Seems to work best that way. They then stuff the bear for you! Then tie up the backing for you. At this point you then go and pick out anything else you would like the bear to have/wear. We got a shirt, pants and hat. You then go to a computer and put all of your information in. It makes the bear a birth certificate. Its pretty easy! Any young child could do it. The computer walks you through. Its pretty clear on its own. It then prints it out for you and you then go to the front counter to pay for your bear. Now this time we didn't have much reaction with the employees at this spot. Now normally that's not really an issue. The only problem is after they rang us out we saw a sign saying we could have had another whole bear for only another $5 for spending over $35 in the store....So they didn't wanna re-ring it out and told us they wouldn't be able to give us that deal. So that was sorta lame. If your a sales employee its your job to tell us about the sales. Mainly because its around Christmas and it would have been a GREAT add on for a gift for someone. Oh well! Over all the time spent here wasn't bad. I am taking 2 points off for not telling us about the bear. Just thought an easy reminder to us would have been much better. An ok 3/5...Some things could have been better! Well let you know if they are better on our next visit!

    I cannot say enough positive things about ABloom Studio One Twenty Three.... I would give them 10…read morestars if I could! If you have a chance to work with John and Jimmy for your wedding, book them immediately. You will be so happy that you did! The flowers at our wedding were truly show-stopping and all my guests are still talking about them 2 months later. Everyone who sees pictures from our wedding immediately asks who did our flowers! I knew immediately I wanted to work with ABloom from my intro call. It was the first call with a potential wedding vendor that felt relaxed and fun. I hate to even say "vendor" because they are so much more than that- they were a true partner in our wedding planning process and every time we spoke it was like talking to your best friends. They are an absolute joy to work with. They care so much about what they do, and they make it fun, relaxed, and enjoyable for you....a rare and refreshing treat when planning a wedding! Throughout the planning process they ask such thoughtful, detailed questions to try to get to know each bride they are working with. They really helped me define my floral vision and then surpassed all my wildest dreams on my wedding day. The bridal bouquet they delivered to me brought me, my mom, my wedding party (and even my photographers!) to tears. It included such personal details that were special to me. For example, I shared with them that my late Grandpa's favorite flowers were Bells of Ireland. These flowers were in my bridal bouquet, and it truly felt like a piece of my grandpa was with me on my wedding day. I was stunned when I walked into our reception area. They used their insurmountable talent and creativity to turn it into an absolute fairytale with the most stunning centerpieces. They created three different types of arrangements that completely transformed the outdoor tented area into a beautiful garden party. No detail goes unnoticed with ABloom and everything they did was so tasteful and perfect. You will never meet a team who is more talented and creative and who provides more personalized service than John and Jimmy at ABloom. Two months later and I am still blown away......They truly made our wedding day dreams a reality and we are forever grateful. It was an honor and true pleasure to work with them every step of the way!

    I recently hosted a baby shower and used ABloom Studio One Twenty Three for my centerpieces and…read morefloral arrangements. I was over-the-top impressed with what they designed for me. I told them the theme of the shower was baby girl woodland animals and they created the most spectacular and extraordinary seven centerpieces I ever saw. My guests are still raving about them! I also ordered 3 large vase arrangements; one for the bar, the favor table and the place card table and all three were simply magnificent brimming with the most beautiful flowers ever. They also decorated a fireplace mantle with a stunning swag with pink flowers and greens. It all really gave the finishing touch to the shower. I adored working with the two owners, Jim and John. They were so easy to work with; all of us exchanging ideas and coming up with the perfect end result. They were both kind and friendly, yet professional and knowledgeable and paying attention to every detail. I couldn't be more happy and excited seeing it all come together. So if you are looking for an amazingly exceptional florist which is over and above the average florist, look no further than ABloom Studio One Twenty Three in Braintree! I would highly recommend! One hundred percent satisfied!
