“Very pleased, great and friendly customer service shop, seems to be family run and perfectly sits next to a double tree hotel (I badly had to pee from my hour drive out from Gaithersburg in rush hour traffic.)I called the shop earlier in the day and spoke to Phil, he gave me a great initial impression, very friendly and told me they're on the 2nd floor of the quadrant and can be a bit difficult to find. He also advised a flood had occurred, they're still open and operational, but if the hallways look weird, don't be alarmed. LolI highly recommend doing a quick Google search on the map to see the general idea of where to go. Once parked at the double tree, simply walk to the left of the building, you'll see a sign for events meeting place and a sign for a radio station, go past the station for the 2nd door and you'll find a set of stairs. Once you go up the stairs, walk down the hall and it should be the first door on the right. Suite #215 The reason for my visit was to get a second opinion on my uncle's stamps. I received them about 20 years ago and they'd been sitting in bags in storage ever since. Trying to navigate eBay with coins or stamps is a whole nother ballpark and figured I should go to the best!As expected, the collection isn't really worth more than $25 for about the 2700 ish cancelled stamps. But it was nice to have Phil recognize that I was the one that called, treat the album well, and give me an honest answer.While I was at the shop, I believe his son, Victor walked in and apologized in regards to the album being of low value. We also had a great conversation on other collectibles, such as Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, Magic, Sports cards, video games and the like. I've been searching for ages for a shop or at least someone willing to allow me to bring in the 3-4 monster boxes of sports cards I have. I got a firm "bring them in, we'll take a look". Today's venture wasn't just about getting an appraisal for my stamps, it was more about, where can I go for future guidance with collectibles. Compared to my recent visit with Maryland Stamps and Coins (Bethesda), Geezer's Tweezers is absolutely what I was looking for. I 1000% recommend this business and will be looking forward to my next visit! Thank you so much Phil and Victor for the pleasant experience!”

“Stopped in for their moving sale and kicking myself for not stopping in sooner! They have so many cool items from comic books and action figures to board games and collectible cards, even magic tricks and tarot. This is a great spot to bring the kids and browse around for awhile. They even have a space upstairs with a HUGE Lego city. Check them out before they move!”

“Pretty cool art supply store with fair prices. Nice to have helpful staff who are into art and knowledgeable. I love the artsy, counterculture decor both inside and out. Everything Michael's is not. There's a small discount for educators. Parking is down exterior stairs to the right of the entrance leading down the hill to a small parking lot under the bridge. I parked on the street around the corner.”

“Very nice shop, some of the friendliest people working there. I learned that they are the oldest comic book shop still open in Maryland, and have had a few different owners. Worth the trip!”

“The DugoutZone is a fantastic place to shop or to simply talk about the hobby. Rick and Randy are great people and it's always great to drop in. They started in the era when it seemed everyone with a box of older cards and a case of something new felt they could open a store. That they are still around today is a testament to the quality and service they provide and to the relationships they've built with their customers.”

“I really didn't want to part with my silver bullion coins that I've had for 25 years, but I needed the money. So today I went to American Bullion center to see Rick Davis. Rick looked over my coins for a few minutes and gave me a fair price for my coins. The process was quick, easy and painless.He really knows his stuff about coins from the US and all around the world. Whether you want to buy or sell coins, I highly recommend going to see Rick Davis at American Bullion Center.”

“These guys are fantastic! I brought in 3 McFarlane action figures that I had duplicates of, hoping to either trade or sell them to the store. They informed me that they don't specialize much in action figures, focusing mainly on sports cards and memorabilia, and suggested trying to sell online. I ended up choosing two more figures to purchase from the store, and when they found out I had driven 30 minutes to get there, they asked to see the figures again and made me an offer. I was thrilled and will definitely be coming back for more. Highly recommend for sports memorabilia collectors.”

“I have nothing but to praise this place, the employees are super nice and helpful always which makes you feel welcomed. Everything is organized super good. I would just have one remark, they should label their clearance section better, but besides that it's amazing every time I get to go to Michaels.”

“GREAT STAFF!!! My aunt came here to shop with her card. Upon her purchase she left her card at the place. Well three weeks go by and my aunt comes back to Michaels to get her card. Around 3:00 yesterday, one of the staff members effortlessly retrieved it to her. Their staff is trustworthy and competent and I don't know their name, but the black woman with glasses deserves a promotion! If you're missing your bank card, check Michaels! They might just have it.”

“I went to Certified Rarities after finding a gold coin on a parking lot. The money they offered me would’ve paid my mortgage for a year. The gentleman who appraised it then advised me to lock it up and hold onto it . I went there to see if it was real gold. It was .999 pure gold. After talking with them, I started buying gold and silver from APMEX. I trust them wholly.”

“I like the atmosphere here the owner or employee are super nice. It always reminds me of the big bang theory but with people having a great time and the big bang theory don't have classic tv shows playing while you shop”

“Stepping into Michael's is always a magical experience. From the smell, the sights, the crunchy-sounding music. It is truly a multisensory experience. Where Michael's falls short is on pricing, unfortunately.”

“Forget-Me-Not has been a staple on Main Street since my childhood. I remember it as the "fairy store," the "fae store," the "fantasy store," the "Lord of The Rings store," and the "bubble store." I haven't been inside for years and upon entering, it felt as if I was walking into a fantasy book. The walls of the retail store alone are fantasy-like due to having real natural rock structures showcasing products. As if it was a small castle jampacked of gifts and treasures. The building is three stories high and each room a different realm of gifts. Just when you start to feel a genre of the area you are shopping in, it changes completely! When I was a child, I would come in here for the fairy dresses, wands, rocks and small spell books. Now I come here to smile at the nostalgic items of my past shopping experiences and detour to the jewelry, garden fae products and vintage clothes. There is something for everyone here, I promise.”

“I'll admit this is a review of the corporate entity rather than this specific Michaels.Michael's used to be my go-to store. It's close, they had everything I needed and it's always fun to browse a craft store.Over the past few years I began to see a shift. They had less and less selection and seemed to start narrowing the demographic field they were after or, at least, severly limiting the types of crafts they supported and the amount of options for each craft.I get it, some things just don't move and you only have so much floor space. Additionally, with online shopping it's getting harder and harder for brick and mortar stores to exist.But it seems that the floor space is ever increasing and shelf selection is correspondingly decreasing.I still love a trip out to Michaels when I need a specific color craft paint that I can't wait two days to get or a replacement ball for the wreath my wife made last year, and nobody can be without modpodge. But sometimes it feels like I'm shopping in the leftover and clearance bin at a bigger store rather than the great craft store it used to be.Maybe it's a COVID recovery problem and the old stores will return. Somehow, I doubt it.”

“When I visited, this place was already dudded up for Halloween and it was early August! But the store looked gorgeous and appealing. I hadn't ever been to this Michael's location and didn't really need anything but shopped up and down the aisles. Things were neatly displayed and there weren't any merchandise holes that I saw. I didn't need any help so didn't have to engage any workers, which I guess was fortunate as I didn't see many employees. But, no issues for me.”

“Amazing staff and management. This store really works hard and im sure thats why its still a GameStop. Despite the crazy desire of people to relinquish their ownership by buying digital media as downloads, gamestop stores and discs rock.”
