Very kind service from welcoming to check out. It was a rainy holiday and they were open which was…read morereally nice for our family including child to explore the store. Very clean and variety of selections for young children to older explorers and creatives. We ended up getting strawberry scratch and sniff stickers and two Sanrio blind boxes. The workers let us know the Sanrio were new. Value is always subjective I believe but to us, the stickers will definitely be used, and the Sanrio figurines will be played with and appreciated. This was the second time I've been in this store, and overall, it was very welcoming, helpful, and fun ambiance. We'll be back again next time in Murphys.

We stopped in here yesterday to check it out [my husband just got an Atari 2600-did you know they…read moreare still making them (!?!)- and was hoping to get some cartridges]. It was such a pleasant surprise that there were things in the shop for everyone in the family!! I got some pins, one daughter got amiibos (sp?), and one got a Cat Noir doll (she was thrilled). But my husband was the big winner with his haul of Atari cartridges-they are vintage but I think all of them have worked after being cleaned. He and the kids were up until after midnight playing Casino (?)...anyway they were laughing and having a great time and a a lot of it is down to the knowledgeable and cool people working at the store who were a lot of fun. I will gladly spend money at a store that is locally owned and promotes a welcoming vibe. So excited to go back! Great value too-they were happy to make deals on the cartridges and on my Dr. Who trinkets-not expected but appreciated!!
