I bought a set of dice from Mayhem this week, and the numbers started peeling off the first time I…read moreused them. I brought them back and asked for store credit toward another set. I was told they could only exchange them for the exact same product, but since that item wasn't in stock I'd have to contact the manufacturer myself. I wasn't asking for a refund, just an exchange or store credit for an item that was defective on day one. Most retailers stand behind the products they sell, especially when something fails immediately. Unfortunately, that wasn't my experience here, so I can't recommend shopping at a place that doesn't take responsibility for defective items.

Had a really great experience here! Customer service wasn't the best but the staff was super…read morefriendly and knowledgeable. I see a lot of reviews talking about their no-refund policy, which is true but when I purchased my 3DS they made it very clear that I could not get a refund for it. Decent prices for the stock, good selection of games, little lackluster on the console selection. Definitely come here if you need some old gaming nostalgia

A sales man came over and greeted us and asked what we were looking for. My son had found an Xbox 360 game and asked if it was compatible with his Xbox S one. The salesman told us we needed to go to the Microsoft website and look it up ourselves. My son then found a game that he wanted that was $45. We ran over to Target and purchased it for $29.99.

Jay's CD & Hobby stores are probably my favorite establishments in all of Des Moines. I'm a huge…read moreretro junkie so scouring through old video games, music, trading cards, etc., is one of my favorite pastimes. This location in particular, is probably my most visited one, but also my least liked of the three. Even so, it's still a great store. When it comes to retro and vintage items, you can always find exactly what you're looking for on sites like eBay. The fun part of Jay's, is not knowing what you want and just browsing. More times than not, I don't buy anything from this location. The selection of items is usually better at the other locations. That's the only reason it's not a 5-star rating for me. Value wise, I think their prices rival eBay, and you can buy it on the spot instead of waiting for shipping. Staff always seems friendly and helpful also.
