“This place was really great, I am relatively new to coin collecting and the man gave me a amazing deal on the coins I got. I felt that they were really kind and passionate about their jobs. They also had a lot of coins to look at. It was a overall great experience”

“This place is awesome! It is the best hidden secret of a bead store in Chicago for gems and other beads. Truly gorgeous products (all kinds of real gemstones that I wanted to buy them all) and Anna and Diana are lovely people who are so helpful and kind. Glad to support this woman owned business. Love love love their new space and look forward to going back! This special shop should not be missed!”

“A classic magic shop. Small space with big inventory, ranging from sponge balls and card decks to parlor-size illusions. The best part is contact with the sales people, who are happy to demonstrate and answer questions about tricks that interest you. You won't get that from buying anywhere online!That said, we asked on two different occasions about specific tricks that turned out to be out of stock. They just said that bluntly, with no follow-up such as when these might be restocked or whether they'd even been reordered.”

“I write this review on the 1 year anniversary of the shop's opening. The brothers that run the store set up a welcoming atmosphere for guests, they are just good conversationalists. Over my many trips to The Horror House, I have picked up monster related art, t-shirts, patches, figures and even coffee.And the coffee and all the other stuff, is so so good. They cover all the eras of horror from classic Universal Monsters, to modern horror and they cover all the genres from horror comedies to slashers.Here is my youtube review on this excellent spot youtube.com/live/80iz3Wa…”

“Knights Edge is phenomenal! Not only are there many stellar pieces to look at, but Norman and Miriam go above and beyond by making this store an immersive experience. They were also very kind and helpful and answered all our questions (since we were first time purchasers).Again, I highly highly highly recommend this store, especially if you want to buy unique products/gifts and have fun while doing it!”

“I meet Captain Steve today the owner!! Him and his son Tom run the business.. if you're looking for anything vintage baseball cards, records, old model cars, and many many more things, you should stop by and check it out. Plenty of parking on the side street right next to the shop. Steve and Tom are friendly nice and not pushy owners!”

“Great and unique place for train nerds. It sort of has the feeling of an old curio shop in which the you expect the merchandise to come to life. The second floor looks like it was once a shopkeeper's apartment. The owner has lots and lots of HO freight cars and engines. Walthers seemed to be his preffered brand but he has plenty of other brands too and if you dig through you will find some gems. I found two Rivarossi passenger cars for just 15 dollars each. He gets collections in so it's worth going back regularly. He doesn't seem to carry much in the way of track, scenery and accessories but he does have some. There were some other gauges available too.”

“I did a layaway on a doll I've been wanting for a while that's so hard to find. She was shipped with lots of protective packaging, and was in her box perfectly NRFB. They were also really nice on the phone. Thank you guys so much! Will be ordering more from you guys.”

“Been all over the Chicagoland area in and out of sports cards/memorabilia shops throughout the years. I'll say Elite Cards is top of the line. When I say "top of the line", I mean both Ronnie & Gary buy-sell-trade with integrity. Wealth of knowledge in the industry. It's not just about making a "sale" with these guys, they're in it because they love what they do! A lot of shops I've been too, I've always picked up on the used car salesman vibe but not here. Straight shooters, no sugar coating, and or over inflating value on products they have. Simply tell them what you're trying to accomplish and they'll help you get there!Thanks guys!”

“My husband and i sort of wandered in (i didn't think it was open since you can't tell from the street) but we got buzzed in and WOW was it worth it, an amazing collection, some of which my husband recognized from his childhood with plenty of toys and models with all sorts of themes. GREAT stock of Horror stuff and a super friendly lady at the counter. We will absolutely be back, this place is a hidden gem and well worth the trip on a rainy Satuday afternoon.”

“Five stars!My 8 year old son is a sports fan, and while on a trip to Chicago his one request was to find cool new sports cards.The experience at Tim’s lived up to all expectations, and Tim himself patiently helped Jake find the perfect cards. Here’s to a wonderful small business, and making our day in Chicago very special! (Tim - he got Justin Fields in the pack you recommended!!!). ?Jake and Lindsay Odvody”

“We went to Archie's to see if they were interested in a variety of items we wanted to sell. The entire experience was excellent and conducted with clarity, great communication, and professionalism. Their offers were fair, and they explained why certain things were not valued as we may have expected. We felt very comfortable there and recommend it others looking for their services.”

“I’ve been to Mr. Subak’s store several times. Really honest and open. Love how he takes the time to break it down and answer any questions you have. Will continue to go back to buy and sell!”

“Awesome toy and collectibles store near Wrigley Field. If you're ever in the area or going to a game, you gotta stop in and check this place out. Tons of action figures, Funko pops, collectibles and more. Super friendly guy behind the counter who took great care of me. This place maximizes every inch of their store and wastes no space at all. Could have spent a lot of time combing thru everything.”

“Grant is awesome! There are tons of comics and he knew exactly what boxes to look for when you ask him what you are looking for. Be prepared to stay for more than an hour and bring your money. It's worth the trip!”

“Best GameStop I’ve ever been to. Deonte is a lovely gentlemen, and always accommodates me. He’s a nice guy — he knows the products and he’s personable, and kind to customers — even little ones!”

“Great little place tucked away in the north side. Figures ranging from McFarlane Metal Gear, to Godaikin, to Microman. If you have a hankering for vintage plastic, come here! Make sure you have enough though, your wallet will be screaming on the way out ?”

“Great resource for art and writing needs. Checking out seems to take longer than it should and that's not the staff, it's true at every Blick I have been to.”

“Incredible shop, something for every level collector. You will not leave empty handed. The clerk it knowledgeable and willing to advise if needed. If your looking for something extremely specific I would call first a few days before so he can set it aside, at times they are busy. And cannot hunt the very rare and obscure. None the less I love the shop but no longer live in the state.”

“I never go in here but I am planning a wedding and Yaritza, the sales persona, was so incredibly kind, knowledgeable and helpful. Her graciousness and friendly personality really went a long way and I was so grateful for her help. Will definitely be back!”

“I'm super crafty. I love painting, photography, getting into tufting, baking, sculpture, etc. where else can I get a diverse range of crafts at one stop? Beats me. Nothing as convenient as Michael's. Some store focus fabrics some arts, but Michael's is kinda a catch all. They also have printing and framing as well. I just got some canvas prints for $10 each! What a value! Service is always quick and courteous. Always helpful finding what I need and offering alternatives. I mean when the weather drops below freezing I like to relax at home to make some crafts. I'm super glad this one is conveniently located only a few blocks from the Belmont CTA stop, super convenient!”
“This place was amazing. It was so good that I wanted it to rate it infinite amount of stars. He gives the best discounts, tons of model options to choose and some of the best model planes that I have ever seen. The plane models were preassembled and such in good shape and quality. If this was your first time here, he will ask you if you gotten a safety card from a flight. Highly recommended! Go to this shop in your free time. This place is the best and now my new happy place.”
