Somewhat ambiguous experience. We are not pro hobbyists so not sure how it compares. The selection…read morewas inconsistent which just means they have a certain focus - on Japanese models and on recreating landscapes and tracks and trails and what not for cars or trains. Very cool selection for those 2 things. And it happens we WERE there for Japanese models so we were perfectly happy. Large selection of model-making supplies. Definitely would go here before we order supplies online in the future. Yes, the greeting was half-hearted - but both people there did greet us and what do you expect - they were busy talking about hobby stuff :) It's a bit dated in terms of the space, seems a bit tired, but I think "in this economy" they are presenting themselves reasonably. They had some great sales. Half off prices of some model kits right now.

This is easily the best model shop i've been to. It has a large selection of just about anything…read moreyou would need for modeling and is very well stocked. The prices here aren't bad at all either. The employees are very friendly too. In fact, the only reason why i rated 4 stars vs. 5 is because of the time in which you can shop here, being open for only 4hrs a day and closed Sunday-Monday. Other than that though, I absolutely loved this shop. I will most definitely come back in the near and far future for models and related products alike!

Not a big deal most times but when you're measured for a project multiple items it is SUPER frustrating. Suggestion, if you go in here for material ask them to measure twice. Will not shop here again.

I often use Smooth-On products, and with Reynolds I can count on the products being well within the shelf date, so that they will be usable even if I don't use them immediately. Reynolds always packs and ships my order quickly, which is excellent! I am always eager to start or continue my project, and don't always plan ahead. Thank you Reynolds staff!

I came to the store with plenty of questions for my project. Allen took the time to answer my…read morequestions and educate me on the materials and some best practices that he learned. Very helpful, informative and experienced staff who are willing to share. I would very much, recommend this store to everyone in the area looking to learn more about these products. They offer classes on their products at this site. I recommande the classes before diving into your first project. Again, I can't thank Allen enough for his time and patiences with me. I am new customer for life. Hope this review helps someone out. Good luck on your next project.

I went here to get some beading supplies and I found what I needed pretty quickly. The prices are…read morereasonable and there were several options to choose from. There was only one cashier but there were self-checkout machines so I was able to check out pretty quickly. I did come back to pick up an online order since I got a discount from ordering online. One of the employees asked me for my last name then told me to look at the pickup section to find my order. I did find that odd and a little less secure than I would like. That means anyone could have come in the store and looked at the last names on the pickup bags and told the employees that it's their order. Nonetheless, it has been a pretty seamless experience going to this store. I would def order from them again since the prices and options are reasonable.

Apparently on line is not the way to shop at this store. Ordered something to pick up at store and…read moreit took til the store was closed for my order to be picked up. Tried again, this time I just sent my husband to store to buy, it said they had three of the item. He came home with two that were the wrong blade. I am frantically making last minute things for my grandsons first birthday. Before I send my husband back I call to ask someone to check and the person I spoke to said online is never accurate, I said that's ok but please just check shelf before I send my husband. He refused. Called another store twice as far from my house but they were pleasant and helpful. I will never shop at the Southcenter Michael's again, I would rather drive to another store for sure.

Whether you're a rockhound or a jewelry lover, or you just need a souvenir, there are lots of options here at all price points. For gem and mineral lovers, they have some pretty nice color-coordinated displays of specimens and jewelry. From amethyst to larimar, malachite to labradorite, and even diamond slices, there are some nice crystals, cabochons, and spheres to drool over. Many of the bigger pieces seem too expensive and/or fragile for travelers, but I suppose if you've got $1,300 to drop on a fluorite sphere, you can afford to have it shipped. Other inexpensive jewelry options include the gemstone stacking rings in a display case by the door ($35), semiprecious stone post earrings by the register ($10-15), and locally made wood slice earrings by an artist in Edmonds. For kids, there are some fun items like small soapstone animal carvings (under $5), books, inexpensive mineral specimens, and fossil kits. I wasn't too impressed by the service here -- it was pretty early in the morning during my visit, and I was the only customer for most of that time, but the two employees stayed at the counter talking to each other about personal stuff and ignored me. Since I was mostly just browsing, it wasn't that big of a deal, but it seems like they should at least make the effort to greet customers when they walk in. Overall, a nicely organized and displayed gift shop with lots of sparkly gems to ooh and ahh over while you're waiting in the airport. A good place to pick up a last-minute gift that doesn't feel like one!

The thing I didn't like was that some of the cards had these sleeves that were causing the cards to curve, which kinda messes the quality of it. The prices of the cards seem fairer compared to other card shops. The service was good. The employee was helpful and knowledgeable about any questions I had.

Their store is full of all the tcgs: vanguard, magic, Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokemon, lorcana, Weiss Schwartz, and a ton of board games for super competative prices. They charge market price for singles. $5 credit card minimum,so bring cash if you're gonna dig in the $1 box of Pokemon cards :) Check their website for the tournament schedule. Their tournament space is in the back and quite large. They have a showcase of local artists up on their walls, and there's a giant dragon statue for sale in the back. Perfect place to bring your kids and friends for a chill game night. Will definitely be back for more goodies!
