Note: CASH ONLY! For now, anyway…read more The Bill & Walts Downtown store of yesteryear was certainly superior to this incarnation. Granted they apparently haven't been open long and have some definite bugs that need to be smoked out if they want to rival Eide's, New Dimension Comics, or Phantom of the Attic. The old B&W store never topped Eide's Entertainment in terms of comics, but they at least had a respectable, if not vast inventory, not to mention model rockets, trains, and related items on the ground floor (comics and games were in the basement). This latest version of the long-running shop is merely two unkempt, poorly lit rooms featuring nothing but comics and gaming merchandise. Their comics selection is limited to new releases and older issues that go back no further in time than the 1980's. Also, the back issues I did see were packed way too tightly into the dirty, worn longboxes, had no backing boards in them, were in dusty, moldy polybags, and were low-grade condition-wise. None of the issues I saw were high-demand or premium either. Nor were they graded. New comics and recent back issues were stacked in baskets that lined the walls, meaning you had to awkardly lift them out one-by-one to see which issues were underneath the ones you didn't want. One plus about the new B&W is that they run specials on recent back issues that can get you 50 comics for $30 in a bagged set. New Dimension does this, and I wish Eide's and Phantom's would follow suit. Unfortunately, you can't open the bags to see all the issues that are in the sets, and there's nothing telling you what all you're getting (ND will list what's in each set on the pricetag). I'm hoping B&W improves since we could always use another comics shop in Pittsburgh, particularly Downtown, but based on my experience, I have a feeling they aren't long for this city. When the gentleman minding the store was too busy phoning a friend to answer a question I had, it left me with little desire to return. P.S. Kay found a bushel of Hellraiser comics that she wanted to purchase at a bargain of a price, but being that B&W only accepts cash, she had to put them down and buy them elsewhere (Eide's!). Way to lose out on some commerce, guys.

I'm still trying to figure out what this space used to be before converting to a used console/game…read morespot. When you are walking by outside the window shopping will pull you in. That's what got us, we saw a few things that we wanted to see more of. There are multiple aisles of glass cases filled with every console ever made. Mixed in in those cases are games for each of those consoles. Also, there are a few other things that I don't even remember. Being that the items were in glass cases it almost felt like we were in a gaming museum. Especially after seeing some of the prices for some of the consoles. A lot of them are more expensive than when they were first released. I can see some of the variations of systems being expensive, but almost all of them were a bit too much. After scoping out the merchandise we were back out into the mall. Especially since the employees inside seemed to be amazingly bored and couldn't be bothered to look up from behind the counter.

I don't know what it is that makes us forget that this is a normal feeling to have. You are allowed to have a toy, god knows I have several mementos I have held onto that remind me of simpler times. I came in here kind of on a whim. I almost forgot that this was here. I was out picking up items for a gift I was putting together and decided that maybe stopping in here would offer me a chance to find a few more items that would tie it all together. It was odd. I walked in here and before I could get my bearings I had someone literally pop up out of nowhere to ask if I needed help. I told them that I was looking for items for a gift and when they asked me the age range they didn't bat an eye. Especially since it was for someone well into their thirties. "Upstairs." They weren't wrong, upstairs was like a walk down memory lane. I browsed through all the toys that are considered vintage now that were brand new when I was young...when did I get to this point? I browsed and browsed and browsed until I almost forgot why I was here, I wanted to buy things for myself. The one thing that could use a little work is that they might want to quicken up the check out process. There was only one other customer in here besides me and it took forever at the register.
