I've been in dozens of comic book stores, and this was easily the worst experience I've had yet…read more When my brother and I visited, it was just a disaster. It doesn't particularly bother me that the store isn't in the most ideal location. I also don't care that the actual store is downstairs in a somewhat rundown building. Nor do I care that the place is dark, and a complete mess. Though, it would have been nice to know how the hell the place was actually organized. Where are the new comics? Back issues?! Are they all just thrown in together? Why can't I find anything? Also, why is the one and only employee ignoring the only customers in the store? Why is this employee so terribly lacking of any customer service skills that he won't say a word?! I'm standing at the counter, two feet away from him, and he still refuses to acknowledge me, when it's clear that I want to buy something. Really? 20 minutes go by, and the only employee in the store acts as if his only customers do not exist. How does this place stay in business?! Is this seriously the only comic book store in all of Dubuque? If the owner is "a recluse that is uncomfortable around others", then that's unfortunate. However, if you own a business, especially retail, you absolutely must do better than this. Or have someone else on staff that can actually do what's required to make some sales. There were two people in the store, trying to spend some money, but really weren't given the opportunity. We ended up just leaving, having not been treated with any respect, and without spending any money. And I don't think we'll be giving this place another chance. Extremely disappointing.

I was recently in Madison for a comic convention and decided to bring some video games with me that…read moreI wanted to sell because, in my opinion, Madison has a better retro video game scene than Milwaukee. The only store close to where I was that was open before 11am was Quicksave Games, so I drove the extra distance to Fitchburg to check them out. I knew the general value of my games going in and was pleasantly surprised at the amount I was offered in trade. I ended up finding a couple PS4 VR games that I had been searching for and they gave me a little cash too to cover the remainder of the trade value. The games I found were reasonably priced based on their Price Charting value. The store has an excellent selection of both retro and current games. I was impressed by finding video game guides as well. If you need console/controller repair or swapping out dead batteries in video games, those are services they offer. I'm glad I made the decision to stop at Quicksave Games and would do so again if the opportunity arises.

I hired Ron to clear my mom's estate and empty her house. He did a good job in the 2 1/2 days he…read moreemptied the house. The problem came when he left the washer/dryer, a bed and a hutch. He left the bed and washer/dryer in the house so I could use them while I was there. He had the washer/dryer sold and the guy who bought them couldn't take them until a later date because his new residence was not available till then. Ron and I agreed that he would come back and get all the items when he picked up the washer/dryer. Well here I am back in Houston and he made an agreement with the neighbor who had a key to the house to let Ron in. So Ron instead of contacting me removed the washer/dryer and left the other items. After several texts he told me was officially done, which means that he didn't keep his agreement. His agreement was with me not the neighbor. So now I have to fly back from Houston to remove two items from the house that he had previously agreed to remove. Don't use Ron, he doesn't keep his word. His excuse is this is a family matter, etc. It has zero to do with family, his agreement was with me. No one else was involved. If you use Ron the same thing might happen to you. He continued to rant in text messages to me but I told him I blocked him so who knows what his continued rant was!! NOT RELIABLE AT ALL!!!!!!

They have a few arcade games to play and a table where Magic The Gathering nerds were having a meeting of the minds. We saw a sign above a door way in the back of the shop that said "Game Room," so we took a peek. We were greeted by a guy who looked like he was in his pajamas, and there was a guy passed out on a couch with a hoodie pulled over his face. With the old couches, and some nerdy dudes huddled around a TV playing video games, the only thing that was missing was the bong and snack cakes. It's mom's basement dude!!!

FYI This is coming from someone who has a prominent online card stores through Ebay, Mercari, and…read moreTCG player. I average a minimum 200 sales a month. I walked in there yesterday to check it out since i like to check stores and see how their prices are, how their staff operates, and the basic aesthetics of said store front. Spent a lot of time in retail environments because of my mother so these things are second nature to me For starters the layout is awful like a jumbled mess. Case for pokemon cards was hidden by a shelf in the back of the store. Zero supervision. Looked to be no cameras. I could have swiped that whole case and walked out since the staff there had one guy helping customers and the rest sitting on their phones. That's something big that should be addressed and i wonder how much inventory they have actually lost due to the incompetence or ignorance of the staff as a unit. After standing back there for about 5 to 10 mins i walked out of the store unnoticed then came back in and asked for assistance. Not so much as a welcome or a see you again but hard to do that when your nose deep in what i would guess are tiktok's/reels Anyways, I figured i'd buy what looked to be 3 damaged cards before the owner started throwing stock at me he hadn't even went through/priced yet while bragging about buying collections at or under 60% and later bragging on lowballing people on binders with expensive cards. This is why people don't like card shops 90% of these guys are out to screw you and want to live on these 40%+ profit margins and thats is why places like this FAIL after 5 years but that is besides the point. looking most of the case i can tell you it was LP-/MP/HP/DMG cards all listed at NM/PSA 7/8 prices for raw cards One of the damaged cards was a 1st edition he claimed was LP. Saw the dents on the back when he pulled them out of the case. The other 2 he couldn't hide the fact were damaged. Grabbed 4 cards from his stock that hadn't made it to the case or been looked at according to him and grabbed them for way under what they should have been in that condition I definitely overpaid on the 3 damaged cards but, for me personally, isnt a big deal since i have the means to do so and i always try to buy from every card shop i come by. Overall I would not buy TCG through this shop 100%. Staff looks to be very lazy. The layout, from a retail sense, is god awful and doesn't highlight whats hot right now nor funnels customers through the store with any consistent flow. The owner isn't as knowledgeable as he seems and could definitely improve in that aspect. There is potential but its gonna take said owner not employee lazy friends who sit on their phones and employing people with tangible assets and actual skills when it comes to floor planning and stocking/organizing.

Crazy idea, but maybe take the case off the shelf then? When you ask the employees questions, they seem like they have no idea what they're talking about and just BS answers. Definitely don't seem like they're informed about the games they're shilling, even the big names. On Black Friday, I had the aforementioned "we don't have this game despite you giving me the case" thing happen to me but also heard the same employee tell a customer that was curious about Age of Calamity that it was just like Diablo 3. In what possible way are those games comparable? I lost brain cells that day.
