The organization of their books (ESPECIALLY children's books) makes it almost impossible to find anything. I came to buy 5 specific childrens books but I couldn't tell what was where in the children's section. It seemed like half the books were sorted by title and the other half by author. It was a mess. I left frustrated and didn't buy anything

Decent store with decent CD prices and very nice selection. Now the bad and the reason I will not return. After checking out and spending over $200 on about 40 or so CD’s, I asked for a bag and was told we’re a bagless store but you’re welcome to take the cart out, just please return it. C’mon people I spend $200 in your store and you can’t give me a bag to carry my purchase out!! Now to the record albums. They are stuffed into the bins so much that you can’t even flip through them. You have to struggle to to pull them out because they’re so full. Come on people, be better.

This place has it all. Tons of books, Videogames, Comic books, Board games, Manga, Collectables, etc. If you looking for Videogames they have a tons of PS3 & PS4 games. They have a limited selection of PS5 games though. For the Xbox They sell a ton of Xbox 360 & Xbox one titles. Just like the PS5 games the Series X copies are also limited. They also got a decent amount of Retro titles for consoles like the PS2, Original Xbox, an even for retro handhelds like the PSP. Not to mention the amount of strategy guides they have on hand for anyone that likes to collect them. If you a gamer DEFINITELY take a look at what they got. Soon as you walk in take a right near the back. You'll see a HUGE shelf with rolls and rolls of videogames, strategy guides, and accessories. Big thumbs up from me. 👍

Great place for rare findings on books, toy, electronic, and more. Had found a lot of art books that could be expensive but not the used one, almost new, they have. Also sort of of the shelves game controls and comic books. They are always having new or used stuff as people can sale or exchange their old stuff and this is happening every day. Worst the browsing time.

Really hard to shop. Dont come here if youre expecting a bargin book store. The used and new books are all mixed in, the kids section makes zero sense, one section authors are side to side, the next they are up and down.nUsed books are MAYBE 20% cheaper than new and marked with the same kind of tag, making it appear they are new, but are not. If you shopping for anything romantacy its many years out dated for this years prices.
