I live an hour away and occasionally stop by this shop when I'm in Beaumont. I've never had a bad…read moreexperience until yesterday. The lady that works the front tried to accuse me of not paying for some books literally less than a minute after paying her. Never stole anything in my life and spent quite a bit of my hard earned money on comics and citadel paints from here over the years. Being treated like a thief in front of other customers and lack of apology just doesn't sit well with me. Definitely not going back!

I continuously return to this store and experience a fantastic time every time I go. The store is…read morealways clean, well stocked with hundreds of hidden gems, RPG books, models, and boardgames that are out of print and very hard to find. They have some of the best stock in the state and the friendliest attitudes of any game/comic hobby shop in Texas. I have a very good friend who was affected by the recent flooding in East Texas and he recount this story to me: "Friday night I went to Book Stan, no big deal now since I am staying in Beaumont/Nederland for the moment. Miss Beverly knew I had lost 99% of my books and cards and some of my miniatures had been stepped on because they floated around the house. And the Friday before she told me to stick around and offered me a discount on the books I felt like replacing....being soft hearted as I am I cried and she gave me a hug and told me she was going to help me. I came in Friday and looked on the new stuff shelf like I always do, and when I got to the counter, I started to ask her for 2 of the books I had set aside to buy. She said I got 2 problems, first the discount I told you last week, Terry said it wasn't good enough and doubled it. And second I talked to Games-Workshop and they have given you money to help replace your books and the miniatures you lost....." I hear stories like this from all of my friends that go to Book Stan, its a fantastic hidden gem of nerdery in East Texas, the only problem I have is its so far away that I can't make it a daily trip.

My husband frequents this shop but I've been in maybe once in the last few years. Until recently…read moreshopping for Christmas gifts did I decide to check out their selection and I was pleasantly surprised by the huge variety they carry for all ages. When I saw Bluey books displayed I was surprised as it's not something a "comic book"/"nerd" shop is going to carry especially since they have a lot of independent TTRPG games I'm not familiar with. Then I found their youth selection of books -Goosebumps to The Babysitter's club to horror genre for young adults. They're not just a shop that caters to Funko Pop Culture to get by so they can have their Indy games and Call of Cthulhu game sessions. The staff was so helpful in giving me a ton of information and helping me with my needs. I had so many recommendations and they knew what they were talking about. I love that this place is about cultivating from a young age a love of books. I highly recommend this store over the other "nerd" stores in the surrounding area. I've been to them and was so disappointed with their selection of games and books and also the lack of professionalism.

Man this place is awesome it has an amazing variety of Collectables and awesome Funko section …read more And the prices are really good to a lil High in price because this place doesn't get that busy and it's easy to pass by . The staff here is nice there's not very many staff here . The only thing I will say is that idk how often they get in new Funko products but they should do something with the products that have been there forever and get some new stuff in . Overall definitely check it out .

Stacked store full of back issues. If you're looking for a clean, tidy store that's actually jam…read morepacked, this is it. Easy aisles to move through, very well organized back issue (and magazines, older graphic novels, etc) section with actual quality and fair prices. And to note, every store should take notice to this: Clean and newer boards and bags to the back issue section! Time and time again, you enter a comic shop that has a poor, dingy display with their bagging and boarding. Cheating out on keeping the back issues in clean and identical/uniform looking display sometimes hinders me from even digging. Flipping through a store that clearly replaces every bag and board in the back issue section makes you feel like you're digging through one gigantic comic book collectors collection. It's satisfying. I can't stress that enough. A+++ shop. Best in the area.

I found parallel parking right in front on the store, I'm sure there's a lot close by if parallel parking isn't your thing. The store is narrow but they have made excellent use of the space. There are tons of comics, books, action figures and even a small selection of reasonably priced vinyl records. The employee was talking to a younger comic book fan while I was there, suggesting what to read and characters he might like. I could tell the employee had a real passion for what he was doing, it was very nice. I'm glad I made the trip to Baytown, it's a really cool store.

The owner is passionate about comic books and games and has enough knowledge to recommend either based on what you are looking for. He sometimes hosts MTG tournaments and and has a solid collection of commons that he sells for cheap, as well as a collection of rares and mythics that go for higher, but reasonable prices. I've been here several times and will keep coming back. Nice to have a decent comic/gaming shop in Baytown that isn't that other one.

We were still inside and she went on about how she doesn't get why we would expect the cards to be there the next day without us preordering it first. We understand that this pokemon set is very popular but did not have the time or means to preorder it and were going to stores hoping that they would have some the day after, even knowing they most likely would not- it nevet hurts to try. We were not expecting to be put down simply because we have lives and work to do outside of sitting on the site refreshing hoping to get a box. Will not be returning here.
