They have quite a selection of new and old gaming systems and accessories with merchandise and everything in between. Prices are excellent on used games and the owner and staff are about as nice as you can get. I've been in here a couple times now and will definitely be coming back. Need a quick gift for friends or family kids? Got it. Replacing old hardware? Yup. Looking for some odd ball PS2 or SNES game you used to rock? They have that too. Why bother going to a chain Gamestop and hour away, support the local guy. This place is a real gem for the area and I hope they stick around!

Terrible experience. I live about an hour away and wanted to sell some loose vintage Japanese…read morePokemon booster packs, so I called ahead to make sure my drive would be worth it. I explained to the person on the phone that I had some loose sealed Pokemon booster packs that I wanted to sell and asked if they were interested and if they buy them. They told me they would have to examine that packs in person (not an issue) in case of resealing/tampering but if the inspection went ok they would buy them. After this, I made the drive up since it seemed worth my time. Once I arrive with the packs, he tells me since they loose packs, and not in sealed boxes, that they weren't too interested (different response than the phone call) but that he would look up prices and give me an offer. Another employee showed up and immediately started saying that they automatically were to assume these 3 packs were weighed and possibly x-rayed. Keep in mind, Japanese packs cannot be weighed for "hits" as Japanese anti gambling laws make it so that every pack has to contain a hit, unlike vintage English packs where weight can give away holos/hits. So this place handles TCG's but apparently are not knowledgeable on the topic. Also, paying hundreds/thousands to x-ray 3 booster packs seems a bit ridiculous if I'm trying to sell them. As the initial guy I spoke to was looking up prices, I pulled out a slabbed PSA 4 charizard to ask if they would be interested in it as I was starting to feel my trip would be for nothing. The guy took the graded card and started shaking it constantly to show that the card was a bit loose inside the slab, it's a card from 1997 inside a slab that is over 15+ years of age so with time the card has come loose inside so it moves around a tiny bit, even though a simple wobble or slight back and fourth movement would have been enough. After this he walks to the back after telling me they would still give me an offer on the packs. Then the first guy asks me what I was looking to get for them and I mentioned that I know they have to make profit as well, so anything in the 70-80% market price range would be doable for me. He told me the most they could offer was 20% market value and that they didn't say this over the phone because they don't discuss numbers (understandable) but even a range/estimate on % would've been very reasonable as I've dealt with many shops before and never had an issue like this. He was also sure to mention that they don't discuss this over the phone so that they "dont waste their time." 20% market value for vintage packs was an absolute disrespectful offer to make me, and also a huge disrespect for a possible future customers time which they clearly don't value the same as their own time. This place felt more like a scummy pawn shop than a TCG/collectible store. I've sold, purchased and played TCGs in many shops before and this was by far the worst experience I've ever had in one. Would not recommend this place.

There was an event taking place, with many patrons playing a card-based strategy game toward the back. Good crowd and everyone seemed to be having fun. Retro game selection was impressive. Plenty to look through if that was your goal. However, we were hoping to pick up some newer games and simultaneously support a small, local, business. Selection of newer stuff was nominal, which was disheartening. Staff said hello, but never approached, never offered to help or strike up conversation. Prices were a bit higher than anticipated. However, I'd willingly pay it to support a local, non-chain, store. However, there wasn't much for me here when I visited.
