“Let me just say, ignore the negative reviews below. You can check their instagram which they update whether they'll be open or not on the weekend. If not, give them a call and they'll confirm. That said, this place is a hidden gem as it's located in an alley street in front of FedEx. I took my son and my father who are huge Kamen Rider fans, and we were stuck in the store for over an hour. Very huge selection of vintage figures of any Japanese hero you can think of from 1980s to 2000s that are hard to find nowadays. My son enjoyed it so much, i want to bring him back every month.”

“The women who work here are so knowledgeable about plastics! I had a polyethylene water tank needing repair and they had all the right advice. The trick being heat (flame) treating the plastic before the repair is attempted. Appreciate this so much!”

“Fantastic local game store. The owners let my friends and I play dungeons and Dragons there when we were in high school and still visit at times. Plenty of board games and tabletop games are available to purchase. Space to play games as well with cheap prices.”

“Everyone is super nice and knowledgeable here, and the prices are so reasonable! I'm super shy but everyone here put me at ease. I was looking to create a fish tank cover with cutouts for my filter etc and Junior turned out also to be an aquarium enthusiast! I didn't come in with questions, but he educated me on the thickness of the acrylic meant to go under LED lights and heated water, whether or not it'll bow over time, how much light will pass through to my plants, and so on! He's so nice and patient, and made sure that my cover was the perfect dimensions. The cutouts are an additional $5 for each in addition to the price of the rectangular acrylic and the entire custom piece came out much cheaper than the pet shop.In addition, Edgar and one other person (sorry, I forgot his name!) helped answer questions about other pieces in the store and their customization. The plastic containers = food safe, great for use as travel bottles, and basically wholesale price--how could you beat that?”

“Cute and friendly cat! The cashier was nice overall! Had a situation with miscommunication on pricing, and when confronted, the owner was respectful and apologetic. To the business: I appreciate the apology, I see it was an honest mistake. Go support them and meet the friendly cat!”

“Bought two posters and shipped one to a buddy and one to me. Quick shipping, came in a sturdy cardboard tube with plastic ends tightly secured and taped. Poster was rolled up in a paper sheet in the tube. Both posters came securely in excellent condition. So stoked with the results! I will definitely be buying more. Thank you!”

“We recently purchased an acrylic panel for our living room skylight. The staff at TAP Plastics provided excellent service on the selection of a cost effective material, In addition, the staff helped us size and adjust the large sheet dimensions to obtain a perfect fit. Awesome!”

“I called the store to see if they had a panel I needed and they did. The employee offered to hold it behind the counter as it was the last one on stock. A few minutes later she called me back to let me know that the panel had a tiny scratch and she was worried that it might affect my art project. I went to the store and the scratch was totally acceptable and would be invisible once I painted over it. I was impressed with her concern and that she took the time to call me back. She was also helpful when I was purchasing some watercolor brushes. I give this store and employee an excellent rating for caring customer service, professionalism and courtesy. Thank you so much!”

“I highly recommend Jeff Brody. He is very knowledgeable about coins, fair in pricing and a fun guy to know. My dad kept a coin collection and we weren't sure of it's value or what to do with it. I called Jeff after getting a recommendation from a friend. He answered the phone when I called and invited me to his shop in Orinda. We spent a couple hours going through the collection while listening to an awesome playlist of tunes mostly from the 70s. My mom was so happy with the results - time well spent!”

“Ying Hobbies & Toys it's the hidden gem you never knew you needed! My wife stumbled upon this treasure while on a quest for Gunpla goodness, and boy, am I glad she did. Tucked away in a cozy spot, Ying Hobbies & Toys might play hard to get at first, but once you lay eyes on its bounty of plastic wonders, you'll be hooked. The store might be small, but it's bursting at the seams with an array of model kits that'll make any Gundam fan's heart skip a beat. Seriously, choosing just one model feels like trying to pick a favorite child - impossible and bound to hurt someone's feelings. But fear not, the guy running the place is pretty helpful. With his guidance, navigating through the sea of model kits becomes a breeze! Oh and the pricing is super fair specially for all the cool stuff you can find. So, if you're a Gundam enthusiast or just someone who appreciates the art of model kits, do yourself a favor and pay Ying Hobbies & Toys a visit. Trust me, it'll quickly become your go-to spot for all things Gunpla. Happy building, fellow plastic yelp warriors!”

“Obsessed with Jim. It would be really easy to take advantage of people who don't know the first thing about niche furniture repair and crafts (ie. almost everyone). Instead of charging a fortune, Jim actually taught me how to repair the paper cord on my used Danish chairs myself and only charged me for the materials used. He is a learned & encouraging teacher - grateful for his expertise and the opportunity to learn a new skill!”

“The store is cool and the toys are awesome. They also have shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies and about 3 plushies. The reason I took a star off is because of the employee. We went on Sunday afternoon planning to spend a lot of money but the employee's attitude made us leave without buying anything. He seemed annoyed that he had to deal with customers. There are no prices on anything so you have to ask him how much everything is. He might be new as he was unable to answer 2 questions (not price related.) It seems like a kick back job so that's probably why he works there but if he doesn't like dealing with customers he should find another job.”

“I love this bookstore! I came a bit early to my Apple Genius Bar appointment next door so came here to kill time. I was almost late to my appointment because I was so distracted here! As someone who is studying urban planning in grad school, you can only imagine how interested I was in every little book... Everything is clean and organized. The employees are very friendly, and during my visit, they even had a cute Norwich terrier leashed and well-behaved by the cashier counter! I ended up purchasing colored pencils and an adult coloring book that was sized well-- it fits perfectly inside my purse! The prices are a bit higher than Amazon (I checked) but I'm all for supporting local businesses, so it was worth it for me. I'm not from the area but if I were, I'd make this a regular stop!”

“I don't know what that last customer was on about but I think Blick does a good job taking care of me. all the workers there are team players and resourceful and I got a good deal recently on some cans they had on clearance. It's a small spot but it has a real local feel to it. none of that corperate stuff”

“I have had several brief yet always fun interactions with several of the staff. Seem to be smiling and are typically always very helpful. They have a big enough selection of magic the gsthering cards, granted they only sell packs and accessories not singles but are price more than appropriately I would recommend the store to anyone who enjoys games, puzzles, collectibles, and just fun. if you enjoy any of these things, this store is for you !”

“I have been a customer of Dennis King for over 40 years. I have purchased everything from sports cards, non-sports cards, 49er Starter jackets, 70s Warriors warm up jackets, baseball caps, sports programs and schedules. King's Baseball Cards is the one stop shop for the intelligent connoisseur who is also a smart shopper of sports memorabilia. Prices are reasonable and fair. I am certain Dennis has some items at good prices that you will be unable to find elsewhere.”

“The person I worked with at the Berkeley location was so incredibly helpful. I've been painting on my own and decided that I should go ahead and enroll in a beginning painting class. I switched from one local community college to another. Unbeknownst to me that also meant I needed to go to the Berkeley Blick location instead of the Oakland one. They took it in stride and looked up the materials that I needed. I brought in what I'd gotten for the other class at the other college. I returned a couple of things, checked on what I had, and bought the things that I didn't have. The person helping me took a lot of time, and I really appreciated it. It makes me more secure to know I have what I need in my bag. Now all I need to worry about is the assignments. Thanks for the help!”

“Knowledgeable & witty owner, with a dry sense of humor. This shop has been in Berkeley for ages, and has seen Berkeley through a lot. The owner is passionate about what he does, and has written a book on 'fiat paper money', available online. I'm sure he has to deal with all sorts of characters running a coin/stamp shop in this location! I wouldn't go to anyone else for an honest, educated opinion.”

“We have the greatest respect for Ron and US Stamp & Coin Company. We inherited a coin collection, with many different types of coins, which we brought to Ron to liquidate, and we are glad we did! Ron sold the collection within the estimated time frame and for a total amount that exceeded its estimated value. The final accounting was complicated by the fact that one of us retained some coins, and the value of those coins had to be properly accounted for in dividing the proceeds. Ron worked through the accounting issues with us to ensure the final distribution was accurate and fair. Throughout this process, Ron was professional, responsive to our concerns, and honest. It was our good fortune to work with someone of such personal and professional integrity who worked so successfully on our behalf. Thank you, Ron!”
