    Michael Myers & The Simpsons !

    This is the 3rd location The Cave has (other in Folsom and the other in Sacramento.) I have been a customer for years and have to warn everyone that this location IS NOT a good place to sell. I came here to sell a cigarette neon light, 2 beer bar lights, 1 framed Star Wars poster, 2 bar mirror signs & several movies: they offered me $88 cash or $115 store credit. That offer is about 10% of what they will sell them for not to mention I had to wait over 3 hours to get this offer. Another thing I noticed is this location is very picky & somewhat snobbish so beware. I know the business is there to make money but there is a difference between making a fair offer vs low balling. Unlike the Sacramento location on Arden the staff here isn't as helpful. The quality of the items here are good but it comes with a hefty price tag. The store is located in a plaza so you can window shop while you wait for the staff to go through your items once you're done browsing @ The Cave. I am being very nice by giving this place a three star rating. For appearance & selection it gets 5 stars but everything else really brought down the ratings for me. If the staff actually helped me by answering questions I had in regards to what they buy instead of them giving a default response of: just bring it in... I would have given a 4 star rating instead.

    This store is massive! There's a lot to see here, and it's a great place to look around if you are looking to kill some time. Great selection but most items are pretty pricy, I can see where it would be common to leave here empty handed. We came looking for a specific comic. There's metal cabinets filled with comic books, but no rhyme or reason to their placement. We asked the employee if there's a way to know which drawers to look in, and he said you just have to dig through. If you were just perusing, this would be a fun way to see a lot of different comics. If you're looking for something specific...it was a nightmare! We scoured and after looking through almost 20 packed drawers, we finally found what we were looking for. Had they not had the comic, it would have been a total waste of time. I'm sure they don't want to put too much effort into cheap comics, I get that, but it was challenging from a customer perspective. So all in all, a decent place to walk around and see cool things, feel a little nostalgia...and maybe walk out with something if you're lucky.

    Went back again this week, thinking maybe I needed to give this place a second chance. After all, what better place to find unique items than The Cave? Walked in on a Wednesday evening. Parking lot was pretty empty. Store was also pretty empty aside from a few customers trying to sell items for cash or store credit. Observed an employee counting a customer's Squishmallows. The customer also asked if the store would take "Funko Pops without boxes." The employee seemed to give an affirmative answer and I walked away thinking, if a company is constantly just buying items from customers and never selling them, I'm not sure they'll have enough profit to stay afloat. But maybe they are making huge profits, who knows. It just strikes me that this huge building is brimming to the max with people's Squishmallows and Funko Pops, yet they are priced way too high for most wise buyers. Perhaps there will be rare ones that a buyer will be willing to plunk down retail prices for, but I'm guessing most buyers would rather just order items on Amazon or eBay rather than peruse these aisles looking through everything they have. I came in wanting to support a local business but everything I looked at was just priced way too high. One item I picked up had a $9.99 Cave sticker on it, next to a Ross tag that said $8.99. Can't figure out if their management prices things or if their young employees do so. Their pricing is too high, so the piles and racks keep getting larger as more customers continue to bring in their unwanted items in the hopes for some quick cash. The clothing racks are still very disorganized. Yes, there's a section of all black t-shirts, a rack of dresses, but for everything else, maybe consider organizing by size? I guess they're hoping they have buyers who have time to spend all day just looking through racks of clothing of all sizes. So tempting to volunteer to organize their clothing... When I first walked in this week, horrible music was playing from the speakers. At first, I wasn't sure I would be able to stand being in the store for very long if they were going to play music like that. I don't even know what song or band it was. Just sounded like a lot of noise and yelling at the top of one's lungs. Fortunately the song ended and the next song started, which actually had a melody to it, and was bearable. Then a song from the 80s started playing. Such a strange mix. Is the person who compiles these songs bipolar or something? I'd go from walking down the aisles happily singing along with a song, to the next minute, wanting to bang my head and stab people. Maybe I just got unlucky and heard someone's rage collection music while I was there. Guess it's better than listening to country. :P The place really is huge and if the prices were lower, I would come a lot more often to support them. I ended up getting some new items at the front counter area (anime surprise packs and Asian snacks for my niece). Hopefully this place survives. Maybe someone in management will rethink their pricing. Yes, the item might look good but if it's a "used" item, price it lower and make a quick profit. Otherwise this place really will just stay a museum. I'll try again in a few months and maybe bring ear plugs.

    I've been to all 3 locations. For anime figure collecting, the only one worth going to is this one! I've bought a few figures here, and for the most part their pricing is fair. I collect One Piece P.O.P figures. They had an opened Mihawk for $175 that's online unopened for $223. (For context) A zoro as well, also a fair price. Perfect condition, and I was going to open the box anyway so it's a great deal to check them out if you display figures.

    I have gotten into black series figurines and was very happy that I discovered The Cave. Here you will find anything and every kind of collectible and more. We took our 5 year old nephew there and all he said was "wow". I found a second-hand Wrecker from the Bad Batch for a good bargain, while my fiancé found a Kobe "Black Mamba" jersey that he really wanted (too bad it was not in his size, but still a good find). I would totally return for some treasure hunting whenever I'm in the area.

    The Cave is like no other place I've ever been to. The place is a collector's paradise. Rooms filled with records, toys, apparel & shoes, and just about anything you can think of. They play a wide array of music and you can get lost in there for hours. I'm always on the hunt for toys from my childhood that I wasn't able to get or got rid of as I moved. I've been to the Folsom and Arden locations, but I think this is possibly the biggest one they have. I've seen others comment on how high some of the prices are, and I have noticed this in the last few months too. Two recommendations, the first is look for multiples of one item. Sometimes you'll find one item in one area of the store for $20 and another for $40 in another area of the store, so no two prices are the same even if the item is the same. Second is take the item to a staff member and see if they'll match a price off eBay; this is where they get their pricing estimation from based on recently sold items, or see if the employee will adjust the price based on a duplicate item you found in the store for less. Speaking of the latter, you have to be careful. When I found one item for $50 and another duplicate for $60. I asked the employee if they could adjust the price for the $60 one down to $50, they said no and so I asked what about $55. They agreed and took both to the front, but when I got to the front I noticed they changed both to $55 when the first one was initially $50. So if you're going to go that route I strongly suggest going up with the item to ensure they don't try and pull a fast one over you and change the price on the lower one at the last moment. I wound up only buying one instead of both when I saw what they tried to do.

    I could spend hours in here!

    See all

    I'm a regular customer for them. Though their selling prices are low. I'm happy to get what I needed.
