Fantastic people, fair pricing. This is one of the only stores I give my business to, they're always nice, fast, and ready to answer any questions I have. Between this and one other store in the area, I only go to them. The hour drive is worth it.

Extreme mark up. Called and asked for a card that lists for $7 and they quoted me $11. These reviews that claim extreme mark ups are accurate. Will not be shopping here.

Ive only been in person once, so take this review with a hefty helping of salt. The time I went in was very pleasant. The person working the desk (I think the owner?), was very personable and a pretty cool guy. I could tell he enjoyed his job and was following MTG pretty closely as one would expect. They had everything Id asked for over the phone the day before set away and the prices were what I expected. He even offered to trade in one of my cards for a different printing that I preferred! Were this my only experience it would be a 5/5 just because of how chill the atmosphere was, how helpful the owner was, and the prices. Unfortunately I did have a bad experience with one employee who I wont name or describe. I asked whether or not the store sold some specific tokens I was looking for, and rather than attempt to answer the question or take my name/# and perhaps call me back after they checked, the person simply said that they had too many tokens to check and left it at that. I thought it was strange that rather than check (not right away mind you, that wouldve been fine, I understand its a lot), the employee simply said they couldnt know and couldnt check because they were overstocked on token inventory. I hate to judge a person just by a single phone call but Ive heard poor things about them before and they seemed upset about my question which I also thought was weird given the fact that working at a hobby store would be a dream come true for me. Otherwise this place is pretty great and I wouldnt let me bad experience dissuade you from at least coming and looking. I still plan on shopping here when Im in the area despite my experience if that tells you anything at all.
