“Have bought a couple board games in the past here, and came for mtg tourney, which this review will center around, but if you're looking for boardgames, solid inventory.

Well run, clean, appropriate amount of space for the event size and seems they cap them to keep it that way.

Hadn't been to an lgs tourney in 10+ years and had a great entry back here. Staff was nice, players were friendly.

Good local!”

“I can't say enough good things about this store. I am sad they closed the one in King of Prussia, PA, as the store in NYC is harder to get to, but you can always shop online.”

“My favorite board game store in the city! The play space is a bit small but it's manageable. The staff is top notch and the community is simply amazing!

They have most if not all of the popular board games as well as a selection of minis and paint supplies. They also have a good selection of rpg material and supplies!

If ever you find yourself close by, I highly recommend a quick browse!”

“I recently traded in some silver coins at Vieira and I feel that he gave me a very fair price. He explained what everything was worth, and also explained what things would be worth if they were in different conditions or had different dates/mint marks. His inventory is relatively small but he does have some interesting pieces, and I was easily able to find a coin I liked that was similar in value to what I was trading in.”

“Went here a few months ago and was blown away by the spaciousness! Definitely more expensive than the other arcades and be prepared to spend more money. However, the merch and plushies are official and licensed, as far as I know this is the only arcade in flushing that does not have bootlegs so that may explain the higher price tag. I will say, I really liked the Lunar New Year promo they had and they should definitely have similar events more often to offset the difficulty and high cost-but at the same time, it's still skill and luck based!Machines are definitely harder, but ask employees for help! The last time we went, we were trying to win a derpy looking dinosaur, and it was very difficult (claw was too weak and plushie was very big and chubby) and the worker helped us reposition. The app did glitch and take away 2 tries for us that we weren't able to play, but the same worker helped us (I never got her name but she had glasses!). She was very encouraging and sweet and helped us win it!”

“Tannens is a great store. I've bought from them a good handful of times. Always great service. This time, I figured I'd try the $50 mystery box. First time purchasing it. Man(!!!) am I glad I did. I know this must be a rarity, I opened the box and saw a thin book, something in another box, a thick deck of cards and a mentalism piece that was in a thin cardboard box. So, ok, let's see what I got. The thick deck of cards was The Bigger Picture, the thin book was HERMES, the mentalism piece in the box was Rhine 2000. What was in the other box, A Mikame Magicians Changing Chest circa 2005 in brand new condition!! I was FLOORED!! I'm sure I got really lucky.
Thank you Tannens”

“Mike and the other 2 guys there were cool, didn't catch their names. Me and my fiance stopped by to window shop some rc cars and ended up leaving with a pair of Arrma Mini kraytons. I used to have a nitro car back in the day, but this is my first electric car. Mike explained the different cars that he had available, as well as their upgrade potential/durability levels. We could've went with the other car, forget the name, but these seemed like we wouldn't outgrow them too quick. They have different power level settings, so a great car to start with, and we couldn't find them any cheaper online so we bought. They freaking fly. So happy with our purchase. Thanks guys, we will be back for tires/parts asap, since she already busted a strut and I've about smoked my tires lol...it's a grown hobby, bring your monnies!”

“Awesome game store with fair pricing on games. It was cool seeing an abundant of collector editions on the wall. Their gameboys are well above market and the store was flooded with boxes making it a little hard to navigate.”

“I would like to extend a huge shout out to the team at BLICK for helping me Get my pieces ready for art expo, New York last month. My recent trip there was incredible, but also very nerve-racking, Raluca, Nina, and Jessica Saved the day by hitting the ground running on a last-minute request I had. I literally called them from the airport to see if they were able to do some same day framing for me. Their ability to help me out, even though they had an extremely mounting workload already, Is a gift that I will never forget. Not only Where my piece is ready before the show, but the Craftsmanship was Flawless. The BLICK flagship store is one of the most beautiful establishments that I’ve ever walked into! I cannot wait to work with his team again, of course, with way more notice this time. I highly suggest visiting this location if you are ever in town or just live in New York. They really appreciate the arts, and there are some amazing artists there as well. Thank you again so much!!!!”
