I was greeted as I walked in and asked how I could be assisted. Usually, when this customary…read moregreeting and query is conveyed, the forced inflection is obvious, leaving one to wonder why, if unhappy with their employ, they remain in it; this however, was not the case with Brandon, who, I sensed, really enjoyed meeting people irrespective of common interests and showcasing his considerable knowledge and understanding of the patterns in pricing and the driving mechanism behind the sales value of sports cards. I went there to sell some baseball cards and walked out of there edified -- I got schooled instead. But I could not be happier about it, for the process by which I, and apparently many others, gage the value of our cards, coins or what have you, is faulty and can lead to frustration and disappointment because you believe that, unlike others with the same items, you are not getting the supposed value of your precious items. Not only did Brandon take the time to explain the process by which we dupe ourselves into thinking we have that special card and will amass quite the premium for it, but demonstrated the process for me in real time. What he showed me was precisely what I did, and was doing, in assessing the worth of my saleable items. I walked out of his pretty snappy business educated and less frustrated. It made sense, and I can now approach my vocation with a different methodology in assessing the value and expected sale price of my coveted coins, ect. I am grateful for Brandon and his store, for at 60 years old, I got schooled. The store itself was stocked with the kind of things gamers fantasize about, and while there, the customers kept coming. This business is obviously doing things the correct way and the store's popularity is testimonial of that. For my part, I always lean toward doing business with the genuine proprietor, even if it means going out of my way a bit to give them my business. I recommend this store for the products available as well as for the pleasant people there operating it. There is parking along the street and room for several cars without having to walk a distance.

They're really helpful. They have a few long boxes set up in the front with 1 dollar comics and 5 dollar graphic novels in the front of the store. Singles are kept in the 1$ long boxes which include a lot Marvel, Image, Valiant, Ultraverse comics from the 90s, you'll also find some DC and vertigo titles as well. Sifting through these boxes gave me flashbacks of when I was a comic collector in the 90s. Towards the back left and back wall of the store, you'll find shelves of graphic novels, omnibus, and other collected editions. Back issues are set up on a large table in the back. You can find a mixed selection of different titles from Silver age to modern. I found surprising inventory of certain title runs. I have a bit more exploring to do in this store. Crush carries good comic storage stuff - boxes, bags and boards (BCW brand) on the right side of the store.

The sudden Chapter 7 bankruptcy of Redbox parent company Chicken Soup for the Soul brings into…read moregraphic relief the peril of downloading music or movie content thinking that you own the titles in perpetuity in exchange for your payment. As soon as Redbox went dark any content you downloaded from your Internet account was gone, as what you really had was a license to play the titles, not outright ownership. The same of course goes for any content you store on the cloud. If you end a relationship with a music or entertainment content provider be it Spotify, Spectrum or Comcast, what you think is yours goes Poof! My approach has always been to own physical media outright believing that even if my CDs and DVDs are technically a license, chances are that a Universal Studios or Warner Brothers Music SWAT team is not invading my home to retrieve my ancient copy of Forest Gump or The Best of Warren Zevon. I could be wrong. I dare them to try it. One bankrupt star for Redbox.

Small Update - Redbox has become more expensive to rent movies. I kept a movie for 5 days and was…read morecharged over $8. This was after the free 1 night rental was applied to my balance. I've just discovered that Netflix DVD Service has the same new releases as Redbox an you don't pay daily fees to keep movies. I subscribed to that and my movie arrived fairly quick after subscribing to it. And its $10 per month for 1 DVD out at a time because sometimes I can't watch a movie right away but lets me do it on my schedule. If you have the time to watch a movie and bring it back the next day great! If not go to an alternative service or even check your local library as they often have the new releases but you wait a long time to be able to check them out due to their popularity.

The games were durable and held up for the event. Even though we were stalled on booking our games (due to the Venue needed to help with the layout), Luiza was still openly optimistic about helping us and in the end we got all the games we wanted. We opted for Ring Toss, Giant Checkers and Clowning Around (Bean Bag Target type of game - see photo). Except for the Giant Checkers, the prices are fairly reasonable. Please note that someone else may think that the price was reasonable...it's all subjective. Here's What I Think.... They have a ton of games from which to choose.

Despite the website and all socials stating they service the West Coast and listing Seattle, WA and Portland, OR both as one of their cities, they emailed back stating that Washington was out of their service range. I emailed a screenshot of their website and asked if that was another company or perhaps only certain games, and was told the following: "For your information, our office and warehouses are located in San Francisco, CA. While we do serve the Washington, Oregon, and Nevada areas, please note that due to the extended travel distance, our minimum one-day rental for events in Washington is $18,500 plus delivery." Needless to say, I would not suggest using them.

First off, Renee absolutely is THE person to own and run this place.

I called recently because I really wanted to get my hands on a copy of Nikita Gill's new book "Hekate" and yes, I know I could just order it online from big box stores but I knew I wanted to support my local bookstore. Renee was quick and prompt and while she didn't have it in stock, she ordered it as quick as she could and I was able to go pick it up in the next day or so! And I picked up a few other books while I was at it because who could say no to more books!? I love popping in whenever I'm strolling downtown and I hope Books on B never leaves!
