This is a pretty big comic and anime figures store. Wouldn't have guessed it from the outside…read more They have comics, dvds, vhs tapes, vhs, tees posters and even Labubus! But those are pretty expensive. Between $80 and $100 for one Labubu, based on series. They are the real deal though. No Lafufus here lol. Aside from that theres just a lot of stuff. The employee at the counter was nice and chill. Answered any question I had. It was kind of dark in the back. It was well lit for the rest of the store though.

There are so few bookstores left in the world. This one is a bit nostalgic for the 90s, and I'm…read morereally glad it still exists. It's a very strange thing, however, that half of the back part of the store is all toys. But, are there any toy stores anymore? So I guess it makes sense to combine it. Every time I've come, the employees are extremely helpful and answer lots of my questions. When things are not in, they are quick to offer that they can order it. Unfortunately, I am so usually last minute that I don't have time to do online ordering. But, I appreciate that they know and let me know that that's an option. They've got quite a selection of fun, trinkets, and beautiful gifts near the front and in the back. The sale aisles are always a fun thing to look at and usually I find one or two things I didn't know I was looking for. The one thing missing this last trip was I was looking for a magazine about soccer. And they have a huge magazine selection of Tons and tons of sports and hobbies and all kinds of other things. But I could not find one soccer magazine. There was one on wooden boats and baseball and football. But no soccer. Do they not make soccer magazines? This was obviously for a gift for someone else. Anyhow, this is super rambling and yet, you're still reading. So if you're feeling nostalgic and want to grab a real book with paper and the smell of fresh creases, head over here. There's a little café inside as well.

First time at this Barnes & Noble location in The Shops at Palm Desert. This Barnes & Noble…read morebookstore is huge and spacious. It's also well lit since natural light is coming in through the huge doors and windows from the entrance accessibility on the street. All the different book sections are highlighted and well represented from Anime, Manga, Sci Fi, Young Readers, Novels, Magazines to name a few. Their children's sections is also very welcoming. They have the stage and little chairs for the little ones. This Barnes & Noble location carries everything from books, art, toys, DVDs, magazines and some collectible items. You can definitely find most of the books you're looking for at this location. This is a great place for avid readers like us. We found some cool and interesting books at this location that's hard to find.

They offer little to no help the 13 year old customer they had there did a better job then they did because of him I knew mi trade in was a okay deal since I wasn't looking for profit he said! I strongly believe they're missing the part where we come to support theyre business and not some hungry scalper

The parking was easy and the store was clean. Good first impression. Now, I don't always understand…read morethe reason a store is organized the way it is, and I understand they want everyone to wander the store. This store is rather confusing, since it feels as if partial departments are throughout the store. I did not find what I needed, but in the clearance area, I did find some fun things. The prices were more "on sale" than clearance, but the price felt fair. In the sales floor, I didn't find anyone that could help, but at the register a very nice guy helped me. They have a self checkout line, unless you pay with cash. They are not set up to accept cash in the self checkout line. So, the place seems good and I will probably go again. It's worth checking out.

Found the mini Baby Three Bunny blind box. Good to know there's a Tokyo Japanese Lifestyle store in The Shops Mall and plenty of parking spaces available for use to park your vehicles.
