“I called looking for Yupo Translucent Paper on 11 x 15. They didn't have that size but a smaller alternative and put it aside for me to pick up. Once I arrived, I quickly received the paper that we discussed.

However, I asked about other translucent options. The staff that helped me was delightful. They listened to my needs and offered several alternatives. In the end, I purchased a different medium that better suited my needs.

As I said, the staff catered to my requests. The store was clean and provided a multitude of options.”

“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.”

“First time getting an oversized poster framed with their department and was blown away by it.

The clerk that helped me, Allison, was greatly helpful in designing the frame for the poster and offered several coupons to lower the price.

Once confirmed, it actually took less time than estimated (1 week instead of two) and came out wonderfully. It was expensive, but the end result was fantastic and I will definitely be back for more custom framing projects.”

“I would like share my experience today with an exceptional employee at this location. Pedro is his name and works in the framing department. He spent so much time with me trying to get my photos from my phone to a canvice picture. Unfortunately it was not going to work in the size I wanted. I'm still going to work on other options he suggested. Great customer serve. Hopefully I can work with Pedro again.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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!”
