I have to say that even though there are more stores leaving the mall in Johnstown, this is a nice…read morespot to stop in when you do come to the mall. That is if you like to look through products to find what you might need. As the name of this business is called, Rare Collectibles, this is like an antique store for every single collectible item you can think of. It can take a few times to go over this place with ease. There are so many items to look at that you will most definitely have missed an item on a prior visit. There are aisles, cases, and displays everywhere, all filed in no particular order. Take your time while here. There is no rush to make it through this store. There are a lot of local items here as well, so if you are looking for a local themed item, definitely come here.

So Rare Collectibles a lovely place to go where you can find some neat old stuff, but apparently…read morewhen it comes to keeping their word on things, they're not the right people to talk to. You see, I occasionally make calls to see if they changed their minds on their Baseball card policy (they only accept cards from the 1960s or earlier) but they haven't and won't anytime soon, fine, understandable. But then I thought of selling these Power Rangers trading cards, they don't accept those either, OK, that's cool. But here's the real kicker, I called them to see if they can take old video games, specifically ones for the Sega Genesis, and someone, I don't know if it was the owner or an employee, but someone on the phone "yes", so I go up there and I didn't have any high expectations or anything, I wasn't expecting a million dollars but I was expecting something, I go in, and he tells me, they don't take Genesis games. What. The. Hell. How do you just go back on your word like that? I don't know a lot about business, but with stores like this, I think your supposed to keep your word on these kind a things, not just change your mind out of left field. So yeah, after this experience, I can safely say I'm done with this store. And I hope this makes all of you change your mind about it too.

Always well stocked and very helpful staff. Plastic models, model railroading, r.c. Cars and planes.read more
