I have gone a few times over the past year, and have felt the same dissatisfaction each time. With the scarce options in Gresham for games, I felt I should give them a couple chances. The video game selection is meek if that. With the most variety for new gen consoles XB S/X and PS5 (This would be fine if they didn't price things as badly). The sections for "retro" games are pitiful, with laughable selections. Any game you came in hoping to find, they've either priced it way too high in the glass case, or they don't have it. Serious price gouging overall, this can't be stated enough. It feels like a basement selection of games that nobody wants, or everyone already has. They even offer games that no longer have online services, rendering them useless to the buyer, at the same price as when these games released 5+ years ago. Do those games come with a warning before or after you buy them? At one point I was on the look out for an original Wii controller, when I called the store I got such vague answers. "We might have them" or a long sales pitch on their off branded Wii controllers sold in store (surprise! They are horrible quality and barely catch a read on the sensor bar) Surely they know the quality of these second market controllers they are selling/ promoting? Just a waste of money and time. The main attraction of this store seems to be the tabletop gaming. They have many events during the week, and I think that is helping with the overall traction of people going in and out of the place. It can't be their prices or selection! I truly think this place would be better off just pivoting to exclusively tabletop games, or AT LEAST take "retro" out of the name. Either way- if you're looking for retro games, don't waste your time here.

You want us to call before we made the drive? We left at 8am to make it there by 12. You open at 11. My husband did call you Thursday and you did confirm you still had it in stock and he did not ask the price AGAIN because you had already told him. Now with his interest and him telling you that was a great price and he couldn't find it anywhere else, you took it "off the shelf" for repricing. That's price gouging. You knew you could make an extra $100 so you pulled it and marked it up. That's shitty on your end. Karma comes full circle. I wouldn't disappoint my children so I went ahead and bought it for them. Like I said. Take our money, take the sale. In return you can have a shitty review for your shitty customer service front and back end.

Luckily, Portland has a wonderful reading community that operates Rose City Reads. I actually found out about this location from a volunteer at the store in the Main library. Located in a strip mall, this location is out in the northeast, an area with few bookstores. Each time I've ventured in, there are plenty of other patrons roaming the stacks. And because this location is run by caring volunteers, it's always well organized with clearly labeled shelves. About half of the books are library discards, while the rest are community donations. And most everything is less than $5, so there are plenty of deals to be had.

We recently did a small run of discs with them, and submitted all files according to their art specs and templates. In their internal processes, they reordered our pages and printed them out of order. When I asked them about it, they said they had to "retemplate our files" and that we should have noticed that they did that (when the art looked exactly like we submitted it, in the order they asked for, with some labels that changed, and without them telling us they would be "retemplating" our files). They told us we needed to pay for reprint of new booklets, and I asked them to do the reprint at cost, since it was their mistake. They declined, needed to make even more money from us through their internal errors. I would choose anyone else to do business with. They aren't reputable. Go somewhere else!
