“I want to thank Domino City. My son was diagnosed with Leukemia, on January 11th and this is the one thing that put a smile on his face. I know nothing about pokemon as a father and the person directed me to get what was best for my son. He also gave me an extra pack. Which means a lot. Thank you”
“You’ve seen the TikToks. You’ve seen the Instagram posts. You’ve read the reviews—it’s all true. Toyz in the Box is the best place in Cali to find just about any figure you’re looking for. From Marvel Legends and Mezco to S.H. Figuarts and all kinds of imports, they’ve got it covered.
They really take care of their customers, restock frequently, and I get my figures way faster than from other spots like BigBadToyStore.
Huge shoutout to Toyz in the Box for always looking out for me!”

“I would give this store 10 stars out of 5 if I could. I drove an hour to purchase my first RC from them. I bought the Traxxas XRT Ultimate with the dual Battery 6700 Charger/battery combo. Also got a stand!!!!! Thank you guys! Spoke with Andrew on the phone and he was extremely helpful and kind. Arrived to store and a nice older gentlemen helped me. He was also extremely helpful and kind! Even though this store is an hour from me with no traffic, I will be buying any future RCs or accessories from them 100%!”
“Really want to gatekeep this shop because of all the sick funkos and figurines! But the staff at this shop are super cool and down to earth. They take the time to help you find what you’re looking for and trust me …. You’ll always find what you’re looking for!”
“It was amazing, I loved that they had almost anything you could need. It's almost like a mini warehouse. I will DEFINITELY come back here whenever I need supplies.”
“Dark Side Games is a decent spot for local game enthusiasts! They have a surprising selection of D&D and Warhammer items and supplies - as well as MTG packs and specialty single cards along with other game supplies.
They have two separate areas with gaming tables - a smaller section in the front near the entrance and a larger section in the back with a bit more decor and ambiance. They hold weekly structured MTG meetups and for other games as well (for a small fee) and their event schedule is easily accessed on their website.
We came in with my son in search of MTG cards and had fun browsing their selection. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Prices were on par with other gaming stories in the area. Store and play areas were clean with some interesting custom decor items.
They’re located in a shopping plaza with plenty of parking. Would be a great place to host your own card gaming sessions or join an established local specialty card gaming community!”
“Great store right next to the huge Frank & Son Collectible Show. Definitely worth a visit as their prices are somewhat better compared to the vendors inside F&S. Definitely worth a visit if you are visiting the area.Edit: Check this store before you buy anything inside of F&S. I bought a 45 dollar figure inside that turned out to be 25 in this store. Definitely don't jump the gun and compare prices!”
“Out of towner who visited for an event. The store has two very different halves. First, the game space was more spacious than normal but had the normal game store "things stacked everywhere" vibe that you either love or hate. The second half was the store portion, which had an above average selection without having too much. Ever walk into a game store with so many games you just don't know if any of them are any good? Not that here. The selection is that appropriate balance of curated and broad. Appreciate the stores willingness to host events and keep the hobbies alive, and for that alone I'd never give less than 5 stars.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I love coming to DXN Provisions! ? The staff is always welcoming, helpful, and super knowledgeable. They’ve got plenty of space for tournaments, so events never feel cramped, and the prizing is honestly amazing ??. There’s also plenty of parking, which makes every visit easy and stress-free. They almost always have exactly what I’m looking for too. Highly recommend this spot to any TCG players! ?✨”
“First time ever coming here. I had a wonderful time checking everything out and even getting some stuff I had been looking for. Definitely recommend checking it out.”
“ROBOT4LESS has a small but well-curated selection of Gunpla kits, with some very competitive prices. The staff are friendly and the overall experience was pleasant. That said, a few items felt overpriced compared to other shops.”
“Tons of parking!!! I went in today just to browse and ended up making a large purchase. Lol. Unfortunately, I didnt get the cashiers name nor is it on my receipt but her customer service was impeccable. Its not something that can be taught and it flowed naturally. I work in customer service and would like her to be part of our team. :) Went in 3/15 around 10:40”
“The girl who helped me was rad and really went out of her way to help me although she was clearly busy. I was being extremely indecisive and she was patient and accommodating. What more can you ask for????Oh I know.Reasonable prices and expectations.This is not a knock on the customer service but whoever is pricing these comics is out of touch with the community. I don't run a store so I can only imagine how hard it is to keep your inventory priced properly day-to-day. But they make apps for that I know because I have one to manage my 3,000 books or so.Also when I attempted to sell / try to trade in some books for either store credit or cash... I offered them Grails and the guy told me that he wasn't interested in buying them because they don't sell which I know might make me sound like I'm being overly confident or egotistical but trust me they were fire books and when I listed them they sold immediately. All I'm saying is we all know in the comic book community it's a give and take I feel like maybe the store might be going through a hard time but they could be doing so much better with the kind of customer service they have in store. I hope you take my comment as careful constructive criticism and not an attack on your shop I'm still giving you four stars for a reason.”
“I cannot say enough good things about this fantastic business. I met the owner (Daniel Lenhart) for the first time on my second visit. He introduced himself right when I walked in and made me feel very comfortable. My grandfather had recently passed away and left me his card collection. I decided to bring them in to get graded. I told Daniel how much this collection meant to me and he told me not to worry about a thing and that he was going to take care of me. And that he did! I was able to get my cards graded in 4 weeks! I highly recommend this place for anyone who appreciates great business.”
“New to TCG's and this shop has been so helpful everytime I visit, answering all my dumb questions and guiding me in the right direction. Looking forward to playing in my first event this Friday!”
“I use to race slot cars as a kid, 15 yrs old, now I’m 62, and I still find myself as the baby of the bunch, but the hospitality there is 2’nd to none !! Everyone there is helpful, and the general conversation is Great, I’m hooked again ??”
“I took my childhood toy that I received as a gift 64 years ago for repairs. Owner Charlene was such a joy to meet and her knowledge of vintage dolls was phenomenal and the selection of Dolls for sale is vast.Charlene and her team did such a outstanding repair on my toy ( Stuffed Animal) and was able to match perfectly some of the fabric. I am so thankful my toy was able to be restored. I highly recommend Dee's dolls. Thank you Charlene and your team ?”
“Love this place, as a starter model train collector, I highly recommend this place for beginners. They have a huge section of scenery, starter sets, books, track pieces and more!”
“Located in a little nook somewhere between Los Angeles and San Bernardino, Card Arena is a true treasure — and well worth the trip, especially after a weekend visit to Frank and Sons (only about 10 minutes away in City of Industry).
The setting is clean and modest — and easy to miss, even with a GPS, so be sure to poke around — but the environment and staff couldn’t be warmer, kinder, or more helpful.
Allen and Steve took the time to review the dozens, possibly hundreds, of my top Pokemon cards. They ensured the cards were protected with the proper sleeves and inserted into a clean binder. They even took the time to identify which chase cards were in mint condition, which cards had slight dings or imperfections, and which weren’t worth the hassle of grading. (I should note I have a disability with my arm and hand; they literally handled — very carefully and professionally — my cards with the utmost n respect.)
Though they specialize in Magic and One Piece, Card Arena had some rare Paldean Fates blister packs and beautiful singles at extremely reasonable prices.
I cannot thank the staff, especially Allen and Steve, for their extraordinary patience, insights, assistance, and general kindness.
Overall, one of the best (and most price-friendly) card stores you’ll ever find. Card Arena respects and cares about their customers with as much passion as they have for their products.
THANK YOU!”
“My wife loves coming to Michaels getting supplies for project for her school and personal things she like to make. She can find everything in Micheals for projects and personal things. The prices are incredible affordable for any price. The staff are very helpful and also knowledgeable.”
“I visited this store to buy a superglue for repairing my necklace. This is a big store and sells lots of items. A staff in the store kindly pointed me where things are located. Without her help, I would have to spend lots of time to find a product. I appreciate their service a lot.”
“Cool shop , has tons of Disney , Pokémon , and memorabilia would recommend, as for sports cards their selection is small , lots of old cards , don’t carry anything from current year”
“I stopped by OG Collectibles in Downey the other day and honestly, it was a really good experience. The shop is clean and well-organized, which makes a big difference when you’re digging through cards. They’ve got a strong mix of stuff: current Pokémon and Magic sets, plenty of sealed product, a decent vintage section, singles in binders, some sports cards, and even a bunch of Funko Pops lined up.
The guy working there (long hair, laid-back vibe) was helpful without being over-the-top. He didn’t hover, but when I asked about a couple specific cards I’ve been looking for, he actually checked the back and came out with them. No pressure to buy, just straightforward. The woman behind the counter was friendly too, answered my questions about grading and pricing without making me feel like a total newbie.
Prices seemed reasonable for the area, nothing crazy inflated like some spots in LA, and better than what I’ve seen online for certain things after fees and shipping. I ended up grabbing a few singles and a booster pack, spent more than I planned but walked out happy with what I got.
It’s a legit, no-nonsense collectibles shop with a chill atmosphere. If you’re in the Downey area and into cards or pops, it’s definitely worth checking out. I’ll probably swing by again next time I’m nearby.
Solid spot. 5 stars, no complaints.”
“Customer service by Sonia and Remy was ABOVE PAR!! They both were eager to help and these days, THAT'S RARE commodity! After today's experience I would recommend shopping at this store!”
“I have been consistently impressed by how professional and informative the people at Pasadena coin are. They may not buy everything that you bring them but they will never rip you off.”
“I love this store, the employees are always helpful and friendly. They have crafting classes and tons of kid friendly crafts. They are priced a bit above average, but since it's a one-stop shop for art and crafting needs, the time saved makes it worth it.”
“I bought some gold bullion and had a great experience. Jason was really helpful and easy to work with. He answered my questions and made the whole process simple and straightforward. I’d definitely come back again.”
“First time coming here got my stuff signed by Kirk Gibson last year and the service was awesome. Lots of stuff to buy for all Dodgers fans.. Thanks Luis & Carlos”
“My LGS is better than yours.
Discovering Magic was well…Magic. I swooned head over heels for a game of cardboard and commanders. I have only been able to walk the great halls of this game with the aid of the incredible staff at The Game Cellar.
I’m a deck-building maniac so when I need Dragon Sleeves, they’ve got me. When I need singles to round out my play strategy and themes, they’ve got me. When I’m looking to crack that last pack and hit it big, they’ve got me.
You never fear the fall when there’s someone to catch you. Believe it, if they’ve got me they’ve got you too.”
