“I was here last weekend for the PSA event, and this place was solid. It’s more than just a regular comic shop. They have comics, toys, TCG stuff, and enough space to actually host events without it feeling thrown together. The shop had a good collector vibe, and it felt like a place built for people who are really into the hobby, not just casual browsing.
The PSA event was the main reason I went, and I appreciated having something like that available locally instead of having to deal with everything by mail. Overall, cool shop, good setup, and definitely a place I’d come back to for comics, cards, or future events.”

“As the author of The Grant Colson Thriller Series and SERA Archives thriller novels, I always enjoy visiting standout bookstores, and Barnes & Noble in Calabasas at The Commons is a beautiful location.

The store has a strong two-story design with escalators leading up to the second level. The layout feels open and inviting, with a warm interior that makes it easy to settle in and spend time browsing.

One of the standout features is the manga section. It’s large and well stocked, and it really draws attention when you walk through. The mystery and thriller wall is also nicely set up, with a good range of titles and a clean presentation.

The café is a great space, with a mural of famous authors that adds character and makes it a comfortable place to sit and read. I always enjoy seeing my own book on the shelf here, which adds a personal touch to the visit.

The surrounding Commons area is upscale and well maintained, and parking is fairly easy with plenty of space available.

I also spent some time in the romance section while working on The Maui Desire Romance Series, and it’s a well-organized area that fits nicely alongside the rest of the store.

Overall, it’s a bright, welcoming Barnes & Noble in Calabasas with a great layout, strong selection, and a comfortable atmosphere that makes it easy to come back.”

“This place has EVERYTHING! As soon as you step in, there are jewels, crystals, beads, and tools as far as the eye can see. It’s like a treasure wonderland in there. Of course, such a wide selection can leave you feeling a bit lost which is where the customer service comes in.

I was fortunate to be helped by a very lovely lady who helped me find everything I needed. She has knowledge and expertise, and was able to give me insight into what sizes I needed for crimp beads and jump rings. She even showed me beautiful necklaces that she had made herself, which showcased her skill. I asked her about how wire protectors work, and she took the time to draw me a diagram to show me how they work! It was an act of kindness that I appreciate so much, and just speaks to the level of customer care that they provide. I will definitely be back”

“My son comes for Pokémon cards and it’s the highlight of his day. Every day we drove by and saw the sad note of the passing of the previous owner. We weren’t sure what was gonna happen. It’s hard to find companies that are genuine and serve their communities. We were delightfully surprised to see that the strong management is continuing. I was teaching him the value of money, and the staff was very attentive and supportive. We liked the little tribute in the corner to the old owner and it appears the staff is in good hands. I would highly recommend if you’re doing something in this arena. Come on by and check them out.”

“Needed help answering some questions about a baseball player from the early 2000s named Derrek Lee so I called this place. I was super impressed with him knowing about a baseball player from the 90s early 2000s. This baseball players dad played in Japan and he grew up and went to grade school in Japan. I was confused on the regulation and “World Baseball Classic” eligibility and he knew EVERYTHING. I really needed it explained to me, I like to understand the rules and regulations even if I’m not a baseball player or collector. Thanks for helping me understand my retro video game and clarifying that he is in fact able to play for the world baseball classic Team Japan.”

“Good selection of r/c stuff, and a decent inventory of Moto gear. My friend got an excellent deal on an Associated truck here the other day. There's definitely lots to look at here, with some very trick custom builds they have as well. Owner is very cool, knows his stuff, and was friendly. Also, they have a lot of parts in stock, and his prices are great. I was particularly happy to see how much Red-Cat racing parts they have. Will definitely be going back. Neat shop for sure.”

“Great place I love it! Awesome action figures I am an OG there I have been going since 2017 but I have seen it grow for so long and it went from Pokemon and mostly cards. To awesome anime figures and much more cooler things. The store owner is always there he's the coolest. Me and my dad still go to this day just not as frequently unfortunately. We're busy. ? However, when I go it's an incredibly treat.”
