Also the music area has a good selection of Blu rays and dvds. I wish they advertised this more because I had no idea. They sell a lot of anime figures in this location.

I called ahead to Barnes & Nobel, an employee answered the phone and had the book on hold for us. The parking lot is clean, easy and had lots of spaces. The employees were friendly and helpful but not annoying. The store was clean. It was like a fancy library with all the good books. Of course a kid needed the bathroom and they were clean and operable. So much better than the public library! The coffee shop was also clean I and looked at it wistfully... next time. Also the book was actually cheaper than on Amazon. Wow!

There were boardgames and card games (i.e. Magic/Pokémon/etc...). On the other side was tables for miniatures to do battle! It took a few laps around looking at all the product to see what was there for sale. Good selection of games, minis, paints, game books, and cards. I'd have to say the cards probably make up the lion share but the game side is not small by any means. I was looking for some stuff and happened on to the employee who was doing inventory. He walked me over to what I was looking for. I was glad, wallet not so much! I just came to look! Honest! The energy is good in the store. I didn't ask if it costs to rent game space nor did I spot any food options (didn't really look.). The employees II talked to were all very helpful with whatever I asked.

Great selection, I could spend all day in there. Sometimes things are even cheaper than on Amazon…read more Last time I went in I was asked if I wanted to donate a toy to a children's hospital- how can I say no to that. But what I didn't know is it tacked on an additional $25 to my $12 total. Oh well. Today I went in and got two books that were $7 and a box of pocky sticks, then I was asked about donating coffee to the troops with a big pitch about the beautiful gift basket it comes in- okay, I felt too guilty to say no- and my total was $36. Double what I thought it would be. What? What was I supposed to say. I paid my total disgruntled and left and from now on I will purchase on eBay or Amazon. There is never any information on what you're donating or the cost. My friend behind me also got roped into it and felt the same way as me. I already donate to a lot of charities and sometimes I just want a good deal on a used book or two without a guilt trip as I have a hard time saying no. Lately I have ended up losing money by shopping here for used books vs the competitors for new books. I don't mind donating but make it CLEAR about the cost. Not everyone has endless money.

However, the owner always seemed frantic and ready for me to leave. Although, it's my only problem. You need to check it out for the new releases, not classics.

Nice little place that always has me walking around looking at the different options (especially…read morethe great selection of graphic novels) even if I only came in for a specific new release. It has a clean, organized vibe to it that doesn't always exist in "nerdy" places like this, which is really important to me. The worker is a pretty quiet guy unless you're a regular, but not to a degree that bothers me at all. He's happy to have a conversation about what you're picking out/looking for if you start one, but will otherwise sit there quietly while you look around, which can be nice when walking around a small place like that. Overall, it's a place I'm very happy to go back to for my (admittingly few) comic needs. I haven't joined the subscription service they offer but it seems like a solid deal that I will consider for future releases.

If only the stars would go to 11! I never write reviews but…read morefelt motivated after receiving the best customer service I have ever experienced! Adam helped me build my first true hi-fi system with turntable, amp, speakers and subwoofer on a relatively modest budget. I worked in electronic retail sales on commission in the late 90's and early 2000's with extensive customer service training so I do not say this lightly. I was originally planning to buy just a turntable from Soundscape and buy everything else online but Adam let me bring some speakers I could only find online to their beautiful showroom and compare them side-by-side with some Sonus Faber Lumina's. I ended up returning the ones I got online in favor of the much better looking and better sounding Sonus Fabers. It didn't hurt that Adam gave me a great deal on the like new demo/floor models and a demo amplifier that paired with them perfectly. Moreover, Adam helped me set up my turntable, lent me an expensive microphone for subwoofer room correction (which made a big difference), and gave me lots of technical support and education for getting everything set up properly. Throughout this whole experience I never felt rushed or persuaded to spend beyond my original very modest budget. I also got better deals than I could find anywhere else. It was also wonderful to have the showroom and Adam's enthusiastic expertise all to myself. Thanks again Adam and Crystal! You earned a lifelong customer, and I've already referred multiple friends to your amazing business.

The prices are in between a thrift store and places that only sell new stuff if that makes sense? Especially if you're looking for board games, you would really enjoy this place.
