“I live in Florida, and I had been looking for a specific Warhammer novel for months. It was very hard to find, especially at MSRP, as a lot of scalpers were selling the novel for 4x the price on eBay.

I saw that Everything Games was selling the novel and called them up. I don't recall the man's name I spoke to, but told him where I live and that they had a book I had been looking for, he told me to buy it on the website and shipped it to me.

I'm very grateful for this awesome customer service and even though I'm not local, I'll probably be giving you guys my business in the future and recommending you to friends.”

“Visited here yesterday. Il be honest, the 1st time going to 40k store, was a bit intimidated as its such a vast and dedicated fan base. Mikey I believe was his name, greeted me and made me feel welcomed with the very first step. I had already gotten into 40k about a month ago, reading and painting, but he elevated and gave me so much advice that has already helped me out with painting. I live in Addison, so Grognard is still where il usually go, but this Warhammer store, its so worth the drive, and it will be worth it to visit here again.

Mikey if you read this, your advice on the perfect gold for my Sanguinius guards worked out perfectly. Thank you!”

“Best customer service, perfect knowledge on products. HobbyTown in Grayslake is nowhere near as professional as this place and not smelling like cigarettes and no one attending you. Norm, Betty and Michael are all great to work with and have bought my last 5 RC cars from here. Want a hobby store that cares and takes care of you? You have come to the right place.”

I appreciated that they paid attention to what I was getting so they could direct me on where to find similar types of thread. I'm still learning a lot, and I learn something new every time I go!”

“It is a very cool place to visit if you're into collecting coins. And very knowledgeable staff.?I took a 1999 Connecticut quarter that looked like it was all silver. But it was a quarter cover in platinum. From one of those you buy on tv. Unfortunately, it wasn't worth anything. Except 25 cents.”

“One of the best things about having a hobby is going into a hobby shop and finding that the people working there are even bigger fans than you. They have a great selection of model railroad equipment and much more. Everyone I've spoken to is beyond friendly and helpful. Special thanks to Lyle and Geroge (hope I spelled your names correctly) for really taking their time and providing great customer service.”

“Thanks Mike for being very kind and very helpful. Special thanks for making me feel like my oddity collection of Pokemon cards was cool too. Not many people like the banned, error, and cards with a story. Really appreciate him answering my questions without missing another customer coming in. All in all, Mike is the example of what everyone should aspire to be - kind for the sake of being kind. Solid dude. I’ll only buy if Mike is there from here forward.”

“My family and I went to buy some loose Pokemon cards that my sons were interested in. The cards that they wanted were very random and consisted of Pokemon using all different energies as well as Trainers. The owner Jester was there and he was extremely helpful, helping us find over 30 of the cards that they were looking through by going through binders and loose cards in a box, which was extremely tedious. We've been to many Gamers Worlds where the employees running the store seem like they couldn't care less about their customers. We were fortunate to have the exact opposite experience here and want to thank Jester so much for his kindness and patience!”

“Good store if you like Kpop, anime, or Sanrio. They had a LOONA album which can be hard to come by these days. We also saw the Yves album for the first time. We felt the Kpop merch was a bit overpriced but we still made a few purchases! Would definitely return based on the selection available.”
