The shop is great, and the music they had playing was a bonus. He knows a lot about all genres of music and is kind to everyone who steps through the door. He was very fair on pricing. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! If you are looking to shop for records, this is THE place!

I hope you seek counseling. Love, Karen

They have everything like Nintendo, PlayStation, Xbox, and more. The people are extremely nice. This is the best place to find a old console or game that works to be honest. If you are looking for things like a ps2 or a super Nes or any game console this is the place. The prices are really good too. You should go check out Cali games if you have not been before, it just feels so nice when you walk in. Its the best. :D

My son was looking for a couple of 3DS games, while my daughter was looking for Tomodachi Life, which was sold out everywhere else. After trying several of the big box stores and a few of the local video games stores, we ended up at Cali Games. Cali games had everything we needed. We found a huge selection of many games; many more than any of the other stores we checked. I'll keep Cali Games in mind for future game purchases.

Excellent store-- the Game Hub connected business offers plenty of gaming opportunities-- the comic…read moreselection is fantastic and if they don't have a back issue they can usually get it within a day or two. They work hard to keep their large bathroom clean. The only minor complaint is that the comic book side employees (Saturdays) are often distracted and don't see a customer at the register ready to pay. They continue on with updating inventory on the computer, or stocking shelves, or counting comics, etc. This could be easily solved by placing a bell at the register. If this only happened once-- I wouldn't say anything, but it is more the normal on a Saturday for me, having happened to me at least five times. The workers are very friendly and hardworking. They are eager to help and knowlegeable about both the comic book and game selections. The store is very clean and a great place to shop.

We waited patiently and followed the rules we were given. The manager came outside and told everyone to get out of line, which immediately created chaos and hostility. Once the line was disrupted, grown men who appeared to be there to scalp the products pushed toward the front, despite her saying that no one was allowed to line up. My son followed the instructions and did everything he was supposed to do, yet the rules were not consistently enforced. After disrupting what had been a calm and organized line, the manager never came back outside to maintain order. Because of this he wasn't able to get any products when these men were walking out selling immediately. There have been Pokémon drops here before without these kinds of problems. This was extremely chaotic and poorly organized, and it was frustrating to see kids who followed the rules affected by the situation. Management should have had a clear plan and been outside enforcing the rules consistently if they were going to change how the line was being handled. This lady needs training and some common sense. Very disappointed with our experience and lack of accountability

Lots of knick knacks and many can be categorized as vintage (like the vinyl records that most people born after the year 2000 might not know that these exist) Affordability is questionable but it depends on what you're looking for. It's not priced like the 99 cent store, which no longer exist, of course. Great find either way. I love browsing. Street parking available & there's a public parking structure next block over. Staff are friendly

I took my girlfriend in there a few weeks ago telling her about the nice selection, so we go in i immediately get what I went for and she was browsing around... then the politics started. Which is fine everyone has a viewpoint and something they believe is wrong or right, cool. But where is the line drawn when customers are inside and just want to browse for music and talk music ? With that being said , my girlfriend (not being a political person) became very uncomfortable and kind of rushed me out of there. With that being said I had to cut my browsing short , cutting Dudley's business potential business, because she wasn't digging that.. I'll go back and buy more records obviously but if I have to be honest the last thing anyone wants to hear when looking for GREAT music is politics.... No matter where you stand, we all have one thing in common and that's the taste for good music! That is my honest review. My girlfriend said she would never go back.

I bought a…read moreJapanese pressing on vinyl of something the first time, and that's one reason I really dig this store. For the size, this is 3/4 records, with a wide variety of genres, especially rock and jazz. The other 25% is refurbished electronics, especially turntables, amplifiers, and cassette decks. We're talking 60s through early 80s stuff, made of metal, with cool VU guages and knobs. Sansui, Nakamichi, Sony, Akai et al. You want a classic look in your listening room? You might find it here. Everything is immaculately clean and all records are graded visually and sonically. One appeal for Japanese vinyl is the brilliant production and quality of the pressings on virgin vinyl. Sonically they have a nice appeal, too. The vintage gear lends another dimension, and the owner is the tech guy, also. He showed me a box of vintage vacuum tubes, all graded by strength, and balance, which are important considerations for audio use, and in guitar amps. The old stuff was primarily built for military usage first, and commercial applications second. New Old Stock (NOS) will outlast tubes made today in Russia or China. But prices are high due to dwindling availability. Great shop, because my collection is so big, i usually just browse the newly arrived section,and what's on the walls.
