Made a stop while I was in the area yesterday…read more Heavy on Black and Death Metal while also having vinyl from other metal and metal related subgenres. Some areas were sparse but my guess is that they were waiting on stock to come in to restock those areas. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. If they're busy it can seem cramped. Prices on par with other shops. Definitely plan on stopping in again with my list because I was just browsing, but my wife grabbed a couple records on her list.

All the shirts are bootlegs, they have real metal cds from good bands but NOT their good albums…read more All of the vinyl and CDs were the stuff you can buy online, but more expensive. For a place that advertises as being an underground metal store, I was expecting rarities and secondhand records you can't buy anywhere else. The staff were playing shitty metalcore from the moment we walked in the door. If you're advertising yourself as a metal store you'd better have some real metal on the playlist. After about 15 minutes we couldn't take it and left. My boyfriend and I left without spending a single cent which is rare for us when we visit a record store. We've found better selections at The Exchange.

Cool spot. Friendly costumer service. Solid selection and good vibes. Highly recommend.read more

I was in Dayton for a day-trip and decided to help out a local business. I admittedly originally…read morewent to Game Swap, but was even referenced to this shop by the employees. I was amazed at the amount of merchandise for Magic and Pokémon. After looking around for half an hour, I asked one of the employees if any of the cards behind the display cases were for sale, he had to price them out, but was willing to pull any out that interested me. I had him pull out my grail - an EX/NM 1st Edition Dark Charizard from Base Rocket and he gave me $50. I decided it was too good to pass up and he rang it up for me. The experience with the great prices and relaxed atmosphere will have me checking out the Mason location very soon.

I've been using Pawn Shops in the Dayton area since the 80's. Since then, I've done business with…read moreseveral of them over the years. Last year I discovered Mr. Pawn Shop on Linden Avenue, and I will never use a different one from now on. From the owner to the Counter Staff and the Security guy- they're all Top Notch. I never feel as if I'm being "looked down" upon. They greet me by name, and always offer fair valuation on items I pawn. It's a really nice shop, with all sorts of quality items for sale as well. They're very reasonable with their rates, compared to other shops, and if you need more time to repay, they are glad to accommodate. As long as you pay your interest and storage charges, your pawned items will stay safe in their massive warehouse until you're ready to redeem them. They also purchase items. I'm a musician, and I trust them with my beloved instruments. I highly recommend Mr. Pawn Shop if you need some cash to get you through lean times, without worrying your stuff will get damaged or sold.

Great finds for decent prices. Totally unassuming: this shop…read more"under-sells and over-delivers! Skip the clothing altogether but spend hours browsing over everything else. I got a 1955 (Jetson's era meets 1930s art deco) electric coffee maker in mint condition (with all the parts) for $35!!! Sure it wasn't cheap, but it was totally worth it! $22 seems to be the number of choice for most jewelry and accessories (which I found to be slightly overpriced). Great music played loud but didn't bother me one bit, in fact it added to my overall enjoyment and experience of the shop. Great selection of authentic broaches and jewelry. Limited bake-light and lucite items though the few they DO have are priced fairly. Best part is by far the antique household items. Large selection of records with Lou Reed having his own section! Dressing room is the restroom. Restroom is small, dingy, dirty but again, works with the vibe of the place so it didn't bother me. It felt kinda like a live art museum where you can pick things up in one place and then leave them in another. Everything was scattered around and mixed together so it made you really have to look and interact with the space. I had a fun time. It felt like an artist date!

Great selection of odd-ball dresses and jackets from different decades. Good amount of accessories if you're looking for small pins, rings and other jewelry. They will lower the prices on items if you just ask. Lots of floaters outside and 25-cent peep show-type places.

Think all the standards (Star Wars, DC, Marvel, etc) and A LOT of lesser known things. True vintage board games, lunch boxes, etc. the perfect place to go with/shop for a collector. Prices seem a little higher than what would be on eBay, but then when you factor in eBay shipping it evens out a lot of times. Plus it's more fun.

The shelves are clearly labeled, and I imagine the capable staff can locate anything you ask for. The friendly cashier even gave me a free bookmark and told me the story about Spooky.
