i was up there last summer. The store was still there. its been around for a while. i played my first DnD game there 20 years ago. I recognized the owner. he didnt recognize me, which is understandable. However as the rain set in he was happy to have us stay in his store til it blew over. Even gave my 9 year old a set of vampire teeth. The comics looked great but the best part for me was there were tables set up in the back. almost like they were waiting for that next game to start. Stores like these are important especially in a place like this. all in all it was a natural 20 experience.
Stopped in yesterday to pick up some card sleeves. I was looking for Fantasy Flight Games or Gamegenic standard European board game size (purple color code). The man running the store asked if there’s anything I was looking for and I told him I was wondering if he carried any card sleeves. He immediately snapped “We don’t have any” and went back to organizing Massive The Gathering cards. I walked over to some games that I recognized on one wall and beneath them in a basket I find that he did in fact have the exact card sleeves I was looking for. I mentioned to the man that they did have them and they were right there, and he responded that most people coming in are looking for card sleeves for standard American cards like Pokémon and he doesn’t carry those. He mocked those people saying sleeves for those are better found at Walmart. I was irritated that he dismissed my inquiry and lied that he didn’t have any card sleeves instead of politely inquiring as to what size sleeves I was looking for. I am not about to patronize such a narrowminded establishment, so I walked out without buying them even though he had the sleeves I was looking for. This gentleman was exceedingly rude, and I highly discourage anyone from patronizing his store.
Absolutely loved this place and the selection of silver age they have! This has been a must-stop for me for the last couple of years every time I'm in town and I've found some pretty sweet specific issues that I was looking for! Highly recommended!
