The kid working the register and the owner seemed annoyed my family and I were looking around. When I asked a question the kid just looked at the owner then he handed me the part I was talking about without saying a word. Not a huge deal but it definitely set the tone. I the. asked another simple question minutes later and was met with a snarky reply that again seemed annoyed I was even asking it. They also had "Sale" signs on items that were still selling at their normal price. Seems a little shady to me. That should've been my first sign of the type of store I was walking into. I guess I had high hopes for a RC hobby store since it a fun hobby and talking with other RCers is usually fun.

Person running store (Zach, assuming it's the owner) wasn't exactly rude but also wasn't welcoming or seemingly interested that he had customers. He was rude to my 5 year old son when he was trying to ask a question. Probably won't be back and will just go to San Luis from now on.

They gave me a real-time inventory check and saved me from a redundant trip over the Cuesta Grade--which, as any local knows, is a massive win! It is rare to find a shop that still offers this kind of genuine, personalized service. Instead of a vague 'we might have it,' they actually verified their stock so I knew exactly what to expect. Whether you're aiming for the winner's circle in the Derby or just looking for your next project, these folks are the gold standard. They've earned a loyal customer here--make them your first stop for all things hobby!

Of all the many hobby and card shops in the area I do probably 90% of my business with Tyler and…read morehis staff. The knowledge the employees have and willingness to teach and invite newcomers into the TCG community is top notch. I hear it every time I'm looking for a magic card to buy online. However because of the friendly inviting nature of Central Coast Collectibles I am more inclined to go to my local card shop and support and interact with a business owner actively involved in the community. Pricing and trade value is great and easy as enjoyable interactions make it even better than just a monetary value. The fact they have two locations one in Lompoc and one in Santa Maria improves quality, selection, stock, and convenience. As mentioned the owner Tyler is seen and available in both locations and available to his employees to answer questions either on phone or person. I highly recommend Central Coast Collectibles for anyone who is in the TCG community or anyone looking to start collecting and playing any variety of card games or Warhammer table top.

The store has plenty of playing space with multiple tables and play mates already set up. Luis, the store owner, is always helpful and always there to answer questions and give advice. The store is mostly geared towards Magic: the gathering. MTG events are held throughout the week. However, Pokemon, Yu-gi-oh and Dragon ball are also carried with events every week There's a calender set up in the store to let customers what night's are dedicated to what format. This is my go-to card store in the area. Luis is always giving fair deals and unmatched customer service.

Most of them are incorrectly stored with absolutely no sleeves and with atrocious warps and scratches. Though, they do have old shellac records, which I thought was pretty neat! Also, the videogames are behind the counter for some reason? Can't really see or pick any out. In terms of pricing, the items seem pretty fairly priced, no complaints there. The service is great, the guy at the counter seemed genuinely enthusiastic and happy to help.

This is nothing compared to the real harsh truth of reality. This honest review is for the sole purpose of bettering the company and hope that this doesn't happen to anyone else. Clearly the person bothered is probably the lazy worker who saw the review or the shop owner*** The person working behind the register did not welcome us coming in the store. My partner and I entered twice and I noticed not once did she say anything to us. I saw her look up, look at us and look back down. She was sitting down the whole time looking at her laptop. Did not get up once. Lazy. Meanwhile, when an older couple walked in she immediately said hello and welcomed them. I don't care for discrimination but choosing and picking who you want to welcome in your store is a red flag. She may have judged us by the way we looked or dressed because we felt unwelcome so we left. My suggestion is to not pick and choose who they want to speak to because it was a lost sale, lost customer retention, lost business. For that reason we left and purchased nothing. Employee was unfriendly and did not smile. In the future I suggest saying hello, being more attentive instead of sitting down doing nothing.
