“Joe, the owner of LC&S is a very knowledgeable and extremely pleasant to work with. Have made several small but important coin purchases there over the past 6 or 7 years. Recently Joe helped me with the sale of some Sterling Silver Flatware. He explained the process involved in determining the flatware's value and suggested that I visit several shops to get quotes and then to take the best one. When all was said and done Joe was able to make a more than fair offer and I sold to him. I always have trusted him and feel comfortable with his knowledge and expertise. I feel working with him is always a win - win situation.”

“Distinctive Coins is the Best Place to go to for all your silver, gold needs. Whether it's Buy or Sell. Definitely consider coming here. Chris was awesome. He was friendly Knowledgeable. Answered all my questions and even taught me a few things. I would give 10 Stars if Possible!”
“My kids absolutely love this store. We have come here for pokemon cards a few times. The prices are fair and the owner is incredibly nice. Bonus points for sponsoring my kids' little league teams.”
“A big shout out to Bill from Lombard Hobbies. He converted my DC Atlas Trainman® Plus NRE Genset II Locomotive to DCC. Awesome shop with awesome people. Thank you once again Bill for your help.”
“Ultimate Autographs is the place to be. They are amazing. It’s fun, great conversation, definitely worth the price ( and it varies for anyone that wants to try it out) they walk you through the process and are patient with new comers, just an outstanding outfit. I recommend to any sport hobbyists to get on and check them out! You won’t be disappointed.”
“I don't write reviews often, but my experience today is deserving of one. I went to Pete's Coin and Currency to both sell and buy. I did my research and was prepared to have to haggle to get a fair price. The items I was selling were weighed and their offer was literally 99.6% of what I was hoping to receive. On the buy side, I was really impressed with the extremely minimal markup. What a pleasant surprise as a first-time customer here! It was such a smooth experience and it's no surprise that Pete's has such a loyal following. I will certainly be back, and wouldn't consider taking my business elsewhere.”
“Massive shout out to the folks at Fair Game. I stopped in on a visit from out of town and ended up having a wonderful, appropriately nerdy conversation with the two fellows working there at the time. Based on their recommendation, I bought the Arkham Horror card game and had it shipped back home. To be honest, I was skeptical of this game because I did not enjoy other Arkham Horror games, but I bought it anyway because I wanted to support the store. It turned out to be one of our favorite games.
It is such a pleasure to get to talk to people who know games and can make thoughtful recommendations based on a single conversation. If I lived in the state, this would be my go-to game store. If you live near La Grange, stop in, have a conversation, buy a game, and maybe go back for game night. You will be happy you did!”
“Very well put together place, amazing and friendly staff. That is very informative. They don’t have what you want they will get it for you. I went in there with my kiddos, and they even gave them little sample packs for them to get into it! Hope it’s appropriate to mention an employee Sebastian there that made the experience great and easy. I will definitely be a returning customer ?”
“Was very busy and hard to get help but after being there an hour with my kids I finally got help and was able to Purchase the slotcar I wanted/needed to race with my friend I'll definitely be back. They got a good little hidden selection of slotcars unfortunately they don't know enough to help other people ,with questions or carry new tires for the slotcars.”
“Had a wonderful time with my 4 year old, car-loving boy! The owner was very knowledgeable, friendly and enthusiastic.
I cannot wait to visit and experience again, this time with my Dad, who grew up playing with these!!!!!
Thank you, Mike !”
“My niece is moving into a new home and she said she wanted to make it sort of country setting for her kitchen she wanted to do sports for her son and maybe a man cave for her husband and a girly room for her daughter. so I send her quite a few pictures of what Hobby Lobby carries and she was very happy . She's actually in Virginia now I don't know if you have a Hobby Lobby over there but she will be be coming in a couple of weeks to visit and she's probably going to be taking a whole lot back with her”
“My buddy invited me to the launch of a new deck - it’s the second time I’ve been here. Let me say what a great experience- the owner/guy running the show is awesome and I was really impressed by the selection and incredible experience he provides.”
“Nice store for all kinds of kids stuff in Lombard. Lots of Dr. Who and marvel figures and toys. Prices were decent.Not many customers even on a weekend.Staff were helpful to look and suggest items.”
“Employees were very helpful directing me where to go. I had use of their wheelchair. I left my rollator at the desk, to use the chair. Upon returning it, another associate help me to my car, and made sure I got the rollator in safely. On an extra hot day, I appreciated their safety efforts. Thank you, Michael's!”
“Great service, always available and responsive and the best part is the price. Before dealing with them I went to two other coin shops in the area and was disappointed. After my successful coin sale with Elmhurst Coins I am bringing all my future business here.”
“The owner, I believe her name is Chris, was delightful. I haven't been to a game store in a long time and there was a vast selection of table games to choose from. I love the fact that it was not video games but board games and card games. We spent almost an hour in this store. It was easy to negotiate for someone who is disabled and they have game days and nights every week. You can look at the schedule as you walk in the door and that was very nice. While the actual game times and dates are held in another building north of this location, it appeared that it could be a lot of fun to go there and we plan on doing so. We walked in expecting to get one or two games, we walked out with six and spent quite more than we expected. Expected. But the games were great and we have enjoyed them over the last 2 weeks. An outstanding experience.”

“This was one of the best experiences I had purchasing something online. The product was just as described and it shipped quickly. The best part was seeing my daughter’s face when she saw her Frozen Jeep restored to its original glory, she actually thought it was a brand new one, The decals were perfect!”
“Kyle gave a class on beer making to my wife and adult daughter. We brewed a 5-gallon batch of beer. Kyle went through the steps with explanations for each step. A wonderful day of learning. We sampled some delicious apple cider as well. We bought some books on beer (and wine) making. We will be back to purchase beer making equipment so my daughter and I can make BEER!!!”
“Fairytales—I love the store.. from the friendly staff to Wee Forest Folks.. Steiff.. Jellycats.. just about any gift u would need for a special occasion or treat yourself.. The store is wheelchair accessible which is nice since I have a daughter in a wheelchair.. If u have never been, now is the time to go or u can order on line.. Definitely a five star store and staff..Thank u , i will definitely be back..”
“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!”
“I love the vibe of the studio & Carlos is the best! He is very knowledgeable about crystals & he's very nice. I highly recommend paying a visit to Inner Arts Studio!”
“Among the many philatelic (stamp) auction houses Rasdale is a standout.Their auction catalogues are worth the price of admission: lively and well written with just the right touch of humor. Even if you don't participatethey are a delight to read. I've successfully acquired many choice items fromthem. And if you are selling (far too common these days) you can rest assured their mid-western values and character will guide you painlessly.Whether you are perusing their extensive catalogue for elusive items for your collection, or selling dad's (or grandpa's) cherished stamp albums I cannot recommend them highly enough. PS-why don't you keep one of your father's albums for yourself? I think the kids would love pouring over it!”
“Hobby Lobby is still my go-to store to feed my hobby hunger. They carry a great selection of seasonal merchandise and offer money-saving discounts so I can buy all my favorite items.”
“Staff was very helpful in the Framing Department, and even let me know about sales and discounts that I had no idea about. Will def shop at this location again soon!”
“Hi, I am on my daughter’s account. I finally found some fabric. She always wanted to go to Walmart, but we’re telling her no but finally we find her a store that has fabric. Thank you so much!”
“They have a surprisingly decent selection of board games considering their small footprint, and their prices are acceptable. You can usually find a good deal on something 10-30% off on occasion too, if you aren't picky.”

“An employee named Jeffrey helped me out ENORMOUSLY. I had a horrible experience with the GameStop at Riverside mall where they essentially refused to refund an insurance they pushed me to buy for my switch 2 (which I did not want). Jeffrey at Hodgkins helped me out quickly and easily and did not guilt trip me for canceling my insurance I was forced to pre-order a month ago. Actually an incredible guy, will only be going to this GameStop going forward. ?? Jeffrey needs a raise and recognition, actually the goat of GameStop. Thanks to him I will be coming in much more often.”
“I want to give a huge shout out to this amazingly kind little store. I was searching for a very specific item & one of their employees was kind enough to tell me the day their trucks came in & told me I could call & check. For two months I called and spoke with Alejandra and not only were they patient with me, they were kind enough to actually look. (I had called other local stores where I live and those employees were horrible to me.) I’m happy to say after my perseverance I got my ghost, and the staff was helpful, most importantly KIND after my two-hour round trip to get there. They really went above & beyond and I can’t thank them enough.”

“When I was a kid I sometimes got dropped off at my aunt’s house in LaGrange, and my little cousin and I would skateboard here bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, dying to get a glimpse at some Yu-Gi-Oh! cards in the display case or buy a few packs or cards of our own. Yes Steven has that very dry sense of humor and droll attitude that some people might not like, but that’s PART of Steven’s experience! He’s never mean. We LOVED going and talking to him, sometimes he would get a little aggravated with us and we would turn to each other and giggle, and he would talk to us about the card game and help us understand things. If I could go back in time and relive those core memories I would without a second guess, times were much simpler when we skateboarded down the street to Steven’s. He also taught us a lot of invaluable lessons! One I still use to this day! (Read the fine print on eBay listings, they’ll send you an empty box if they can!)”
