    I went into the store this evening to pick up a copy of Winning Moves Risk 1959 Edition. I called…read moreahead to inquire about it, I asked if they price matched and the lady said yes. So I arrived and picked it up, took it to the desk and the lady said she needed to get approval for the price match. I looked up the listing from walmart to show her the listed price. She said that the price, including the shipping, has to be lower than their price. The listing says "Free pickup, Fri October 11th." She took a picture of the listing, including the shipping details and sends them in a message to her store manager, no reply. She called the manager, no answer. Time is burning. She messaged the store owner, no reply. She called the owner, no answer. We are now at 20 minutes of waiting. I figured "It would be a shame to leave empty handed, i mean after all Ive waited this long." She keeps messaging and calling until finally she gets through to someone, but they hang up on her. Finally, 30 minutes after I arrived, she makes contact with someone that can approve the discount. She is than told the manager has to confirm the price and is hung up on. So we wait even longer. Finally she gets a call, they wont match the price because walmart's free shipping is only if I spend $35. Walmart clearly ships this item to the store for free. The lady at the store was very nice. I cannot recommend her more highly. The manager of the store was both unprofessional and demeaning in the way he/she treated the customer and the lady at the counter. Later in the evening the owner called me to apologize and offered to deliver it to my himself.

    Just love this store! The staff is very reasonable and friendly. They get in truly unique,…read moreinteresting and different toys. If you have a child with interests that go beyond your average toy, this is the shop for you. The prices are reasonable and the atmosphere is fun. Go ahead and be that super cool aunt or uncle and get them a toy that isn't in every other toy store. Always a delight to visit this local business owner and help support our community.

    nice little mom and pop shop in central Virginia directly on the beaten path but still a…read moresignificant ways out of the way regardless. after dropping the cutest of chicks off at CLT to go to FLA I have the rest of the afternoon to try to stay out of trouble... it's just a couple hours to get here and I get to meet some new faces and go roundy round for a couple bucks. the raceway is currently housed in a simple building on highway 460 just west of Appomattox with SLOT CAR RACING spelled out in 24-inch letters. yeah, totally subtle... current tracks include road, oval, and straight line. I will generally drive the road courses when I'm out because it's all driver-vs-track with up to seven other contests going on at roughly the same time... high banks mean high speed and the Gerding King road course is both. even the main straight is tilty! thought my car was going to slide off the track when I set it down on orange; it was moving sort of slideways and hanging on the guide as I started my first lap because the tilt is that aggressive! felt totally out classed and way out of my league for a long minute... but that brief bit of uncertainty makes Mach 1 stand out for me and the need to stay fast all the way around builds character - the skill part is knowing when to "fast" and when to brake. drags and ovals are generally better with a couple other racers to taunt and tease and are usually populated by a dedicated and friendly group on race day. circle track racers are a peaceful and happy people, but like all 'cults' it can take up a good deal of your time and resources ;-) Mach 1 has what it takes to get you on the track and keep you there: they have rentals to get you started or you can pick up ready to drive or build-it-yourself cars in your choice of styles and colors, plus parts and accessories to personalize whatever it is you decide to run. I have a basic factory built that can mostly keep up. I'm not likely to win any serious competition but I'm on the track here and there and elsewhere primarily for the adventure...
