“Excellent sale workers were putting stock out and when I ask them about items they just pointed me towards the front and I still couldn't find the item the cashier was very friendly.”
“Great place to visit especially for train enthusiasts and modelers, friendly people and very helpful too, I’ve gotten a few models from there and brought in some for repair”
“Everyone seemed nice and the store was clean. Items were getting restocked and refilled so it wasnt as full as I've seen. But still found great deals and all kinds of other good stuff.”
“Just have to say Michael knows what this witch wants,lol😂 I walked in ready to shop for some Halloween items. Can I just say wow!! I was so happy and excited to see so many amazing breathtaking Halloween items😉! Plus if your like me already doing the early Halloween deco, well don’t hesitate and stop by at Michael’s you won’t be sorry! Ohh don’t let me forget the great greet I got when I walked in and the awesome help from the store clerks.”
“I’ve been doing business with the nicest people in the coin and collecting business in the world not only are they so cool and friendly they treat me like a longtime friend not just a costumer this is a place you can find honest and very good prices for your money they have a lot of great collectibles around it’s the only place that i will go for my hobby needs thanks for providing me a great opportunity to further my gold and silver and coin needs.”
“Very amazing service, the workers were really nice and made me talk even though I can be really shy. I got 3 comics and I really loved them. Definitely recommend”
“Great place in a historic building full of charm. Definitely a must visit for those who are serious about model railroading.. the shelves are stocked to the top with kits that are difficult to find elsewhere and the deals are some of the best I've seen in the hobby.”
“Michael’s at this location was actually really good. For the most part, I found everything I needed and the quality of the items was solid. It also seemed much cleaner and more organized compared to the last time I visited, which made shopping easier.
The best part was being able to use the 60% off coupon — definitely a huge plus. Overall, I was impressed and had a much better experience this time around.”
“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.”
“Great selection of current magic products. Staff is super friendly. Prices are pretty great here on sealed product. They also have a good selection of d and d products and board games.”
“I'm very new to coin collecting (roughly three/four months into the massively addicting hobby) and while I've not visited the shop (yet), the amount of education, knowledge and willingness to offer their time to explain the intricacies of certain coins and what to look for during their WhatNot shows is above and beyond I've seen elsewhere. Keep it up fellas and readers of this review...get on over to the store. Nobody's got these!!”
“I come here all the time with my daughter. The employees are so helpful. They always greet every customer walking in. Personally I couldn’t do that and I always see them working and stocking shelves and rearranging things. I give my daughter money and tell her to pick out whatever she wants once a week. Unfortunately it’s dumplings lately. I can’t wait til that craze is over. I’m going broke. lol. But the employees have always been super amazing to me and my daughter.”
“Great place, nice/cordial employee at the front
Took care of my needs and is ordering me in some cards I was looking for.
Definitely will be a recurring customer for my small museum of collectibles and will refer my bigger collector friends as well”

“Marty helped me very much during my visit he is a great guy and very nice and knowledgeable person, this is a small store but somehow they have everything you need, I came into the store looking for a 1/35 Panzer model (nothing special) and I came out with a Panzer IV ausf.G and a lot of tools to start my new model. I’ll be coming back soon for all the paints and extra stuff I’ll need in the near future.”
“Manager a bozo but the staff is kind specially a girl I met who's names is Melodia she's kind with everyone and has a bright joyful smile, she got very comfortable vibes ?”
“This place is awesome and the owner of the place is the best person ever. So kind and talks so nice and is is polite and big hearted. I love her shes like a angle in disguise”
“Miss Barbie was absolutely amazing. I truly hope Michael’s recognizes what a beautiful personality and exceptional employee they have in her. Her customer service skills, kindness, patience, and overall demeanor are simply beautiful.
I had called earlier, and when I arrived, she actually remembered me and our conversation. That immediately made me feel seen and valued as a customer.
I came in during a stressful time, and after receiving so many previous “no’s,” Miss Barbie took the time to listen, understand, and help me. Her willingness to assist me made such a difference and truly meant more than she probably realizes.
She was professional, patient, and genuinely kind throughout my experience. It is rare to encounter someone whose presence alone can make a stressful situation feel so much better. I can absolutely understand why she is the manager there—her leadership, compassion, and exceptional customer service truly stand out.
Thank you, Miss Barbie, for your incredible customer service and for being such a wonderful person. Michael’s is lucky to have you!”
