What collectors say
★★★★★
“Great little spot. Super friendly staff with a well organized, clutter free shop floor. Pricing was in line with the current market and condition of the item for sale. If you're looking as a collector or as someone wanting to play some of your old favorites again, it's good odds this shop has you covered.”
★★★★★
“Took a trip to this shop just the other day and it was awesome! So much nostalgia in one place it really brought me back to my childhood. Picked up a copy of MK3 Ultimate for SNES in great condition. Staff was knowledgeable and very friendly. Great selection to choose from. I would definitely recommend checking them out and I know I will definitely be back soon!”
★★★★★
“Decided to make the 40 minute drive after work to go check the store out and wasn’t dissapointed. Employees are nice and knowledged and everything is priced reasonably.the owner even goes out of his way to get half dollar coins and $2 bills to give to the customers as their change which is pretty cool. Picked up an ice blue n64 with the controller along with 2 other colored controllers and it was only around $300. Will definitely be coming back”
★★
“Bought a Xbox 360 console, two controllers, two games, and a 120gb HD. Console is fine and works great. As it was actually refurbished by Microsoft back in the day which they kept insisting wasn’t good. I use to fix these up back in the day and knew what to look out for so I really didn’t appreciate that. Just showed me they had no clue. The “OEM” controllers I bought are hardly working. The “tamper proof” sticker for the OEM controllers I bought were carefully removed but not properly applied back on. The OEM controllers they hyped up and one told me “it’s worth more than the console” I purchased was not true at all. For $40 each at this was shop is a joke when on FB marketplace you can get a OEM controller for $10 or less. They have been messed with by this shop indicated by their stickers saying they’ve been “looked at” mean nothing. The battery packs do not fit or work properly. Buttons do not properly press down and have been tampered with. The 120gb HD they sold me for $20, I found another at a local GameStop for $10 non member price. I wanted to support a small business and while they answered some of my questions, I see they don’t know exactly what they have and over price the add ons for consoles. Edit 7/01/2026 I see from other reviews you’re not fair and sell junk. Never coming back here and going to tell others to avoid you.”
