EXTREMELY disappointed! This my first 1 star review, I've left 5 on everything else. Please read…read morewhy I believe them to be unethical. When they "buy" books from you, they give less than 10 cents for most of them. Then they throw away tons of books and CDs that they just bought from you without telling you. Only a small portion actually makes it to the shelf. Why don't they just tell the customers they won't buy them? Why would I want my things to be thrown away rather than go to a little free library to be read??? This seems like false advertising for a business that advertises being eco friendly and "saving" books. I loved them before I found this out and now I feel disturbed that they hide this from customers.

Great selection of used books and some new. Price is half of the original list price but if you…read morebought the book on amazon, walmart.com, eBay, etc. you probably got just as good deal if not better. They also buy used books, videos, cd's, records, and games. Yesterday I brought six boxes of books, video games, and movies; most were in like new condition. They might sell one quarter of these in the store and ship the rest to their warehouse or for recycling or use in other locations. I was given the great total of $16.11. It was really an insult. Many of these were coffee table size books, and books about things like aircraft, aircraft carriers, Titanic, architecture, history, music. Many originally cost over $40 and were like brand new. Don't expect much but at least they're recycling things for you if you're gonna throw them away anyway.

Did someone say Lego's? They have some awesome sets to pick from!

WHAT!?! How is this acceptable?! I'm never touching a book there again. I get its warm outside, but set some boundaries for the love of god.

Ok! This place is amazing! So random too to be located in the mall. It's like a trip down Nostalgia…read moreLane! Holy shit! I was so excited to just stumble across this place yesterday. Remember back in the 80's, 90's, 2000's going to the mall and having stores like Sam Goody, Virgin Records, or Borders Books and Music?! How much fun that was! Was always exciting for us 90s kids to spend some time in any music store back then, getting the newest CDs, going through the insert & then basically memorizing the entire cd in a matter of days lol...as long as it was good haha! In the late 90s and early 2000s I ran a music store and then mid 2000's worked at a Hastings in Flagstaff. This place is VERY similar to Hastings. Aww I miss Hastings. What a great store. Music stores in general I miss so much. tons of CDs, Blu-ray's, and DVDs. Pretty sure I saw a shit load of games as well. LOTS of stuff to go through! It was busy as hell in there too which made me even happier to see. Used or not, what a fantastic place and I am so happy it's in existence. Even if it doesn't last as long as it should, it's wonderful to see it and to see so many people there and going through the music and whatnot. I didn't get to interact with the staff. They were busy. I only saw one employee. Hopefully he wasn't the only one there bc it was definitely busy. I get the crowds there have to do with Christmas shopping, BUT! seeing the store and the tons of people there, it gives me hope. Want a cool little flashback to the 90s when life was incredible..and the music was top tier...check this store out. Just getting traffic in there will help keep this place going. Maybe it's pop-up? Who knows. I love it. Thanks for reading, YelperEntertainerees! Cheers!

Nerds Unite! I first read about EntertainMart via one of the apps I follow for new businesses…read more To see EntertainMart through my eyes of complete nerdiness was something else entirely. Let's start with the basics of what they have DVDs CDs Records Movie Posters Funko POPs! Anime Comic Books Manga Baseball Cards Pokemon Cards Game Systems and their cartridges I was browsing the Funko POPs! when my brother yells from across the store, 'Yo Bro! Check this out!' I was thinking he found something that I probably had seen before but not today! There was a section of classic Atari 2600 game cartridges. Here are some of them as of Sunday Adventure Battlezone Centipede Crystal Castles Defender Football Joust Pele's Soccer Star Raiders Yar's Revenge but wait there were more... Activision game cartridges as of Sunday were Boxing Dolphin Enduro Dragster Tennis Freeway Kaboom! Pitfall! Starmaster Stampede and Barnstorming Oh Lordy! A flood of memories hit me like a Kaboom! bomb. I was instantly transported back to my sweaty teenage room of the early 1980s, with my Atari 2600 connected to a small black and white television that had a rabbit ear antenna. If by chance you were able to get a high score on one of the Activision games, and then take a picture with a polaroid, you could send it to Activision for a game patch. Each game had its own unique patches. For Freeway, the patch was from the 'Save the chicken foundation' and featured a chicken running in a blaze of glory For Kaboom!, the patch was from the Activision Bucket Brigade and looked like the one in the picture attached to this review. The most coveted one was for Pitfall! It depicts Pitfall Harry swinging over a pit and into a pile of treasure. I attached an image to this review. After about several months, I had most of the patches. My mom was so sweet that she ironed them to my backpack and like the nerd I was, I went to middle school in my OP socks and Sperry Topsiders, and my Activision Patched backpack. I remembered all of this when seeing the games at EntertainMart. It's a super cool place that will fill the void when Hastings left many years ago. A couple of notes EntertainMart will buy, sell, and trade your DVDs, CDs, Funko POPs! and more. EntertainMart has a lot of specials and deals. There are mystery bags of music and DVDs. Check them out, they are near the Dillards top entrance at the Boise Town Square Mall.

We wouldn't accept the Apple Watches because they didn't have bands and I simply said 'well that seems stupid." he then refused to accept any trade and cursed me out saying he doesn't have time to argue. Truly one of the worst experiences I've had anywhere let alone in front of my 9 year old. Man should be fired, his name was Eric. Don't bother going there. I had to drive the one at the mall and luckily they were very nice and professional.

I bought a used PlayStation 5 controller from this GameStop about two months ago and paid for the…read moreprotection plan. The controller completely stopped turning on. When I returned to use the plan, the manager claimed there was no record of the controller purchase, even though they had records of everything else I bought that same day. They also forgot to give me the game disc, which I had to pick up later. Instead of honoring the protection plan, they offered me $10 for a $60 controller. In the end, the controller was so unusable I gave it back, and they gave me nothing in return. All I wanted was for them to honor the protection plan and exchange it for a working controller.

But every time I come, their bartenders are just so rude. You feel like you are inconveniencing them for just ordering and being there. Sometimes you will stand at the register for a really long time before they even acknowledge you. They do have a couple that are nice but they never seem to last long. It makes me sad because the concept is amazing but man their staffing just ruins it.

Friday night in Garden City and you mean to tell me there's a place where I can have beer, a tea,…read moreor even a nitro coffee and a read then buy a book. Yeah. Thats exactly what I'm telling you. Old Speak Bar is that place and it's only for 21 and over. Plenty of books neatly organized and lots of places to get cozy. Whether you are a group of 4 or riding solo, get a drink, find a book, and unplug from the world. I had a great time last night with family and friends. There's some much eye candy and thoughtful pieces properly displayed inside. Our bartender was very friendly and totally felt bad when the beer I chose was out and he had to go change the keg. I lived that life some thirty years ago. He made sure that the my pour from the new keg was done right. All-in-all, Old Speak checks a lot of boxes. It's not dark, it's away from the hustle and bustle and you can totally unwind in the way you want to. " A room without books is like a body without a soul." -- Marcus Tullius Cicero
