“We have transacted with Jared on multiple occasions and have found him to be totally transparent and extremely fair. Each coin is examined; weighing in done in front of you. Nothing is ever taken out of your sight. The positive reviews are well deserved.”
“The store is stocked and the employees are genuinely interested in their craft.
I’m new to the hobby world but Richard was kind and patient in setting me up with everything I needed to get started.
In return visits, Kyle has always been keen to chat and make me feel welcome. Bonus points for being a Ken Burns guru.
Keep up the great work.”
“I been a collector for a while and I have always been looking for place where the staff and the place feels not only welcoming but full of knowledge and Arcade Coin & Stamp Galleries is this place!”
“They keep charging me week over week for a game that I rented. No one responds to my customer support emails and I have now paid over $100 to rent a game. Stay away!!!
Followed up once they found the error, and was very good and describing the situation. Changed my rating as a result of the good customer service.”
“One of my all time fav places to visit! Love all of the stones! Can always find what I’m looking for and of course surprises I wasn’t! Very knowledgeable staff… can always find smudging supplies… Sage, Palo Santo etc…”
“You can easily spend hours here. Incredible selection of posters and books. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, just ask. The lovely owner has it all catalogued in his head.”
“Love this game store , haven’t been here in a while but still chill as the first day I found it , got some Wii games today for my nephews and definitely will be back for more ! Thanks”
“Place is definitely as crowded as the photos show, but staff are super welcoming. I've ordered from them online but went to Toronto for a vacation and had to check out the physical location and picked up a figure while I was there. If I'm ever back in Toronto, I'd definitely do it all over again! Thanks!”
“Family run business that were a pleasure to deal with. We run a Real Estate team and had our Feather Flags printed here. Working with them was a breeze...not only the best prices but the best customer service! Colours were off, so they reprinted at no extra cost. Also, picked the flags up from their home b/c I was unable to drive there during office hours! Hard to find businesses that go above and beyond like that these days! Glad to support a family run business. Thank you:)”
“I have never seem such a collection in my life. I brought in some used games and he bought them all and gave me a fair price. If I was still a kid I would end up going broke in this store it has everything you want but can never find. This place is a hidden gem 100%”
“Great price on a snap circuit kit and with free shipping, it was a no brainer. We received the kit within 2 business days. We will add Sayal onto our local shopping list from now on.”
“Went on a weekday not as busy there is sooo many charms to choose from! This is such a cute and affordable activity with friends or on a date!
Staff was nice and friendly :)
you can pay $5 for 6 charms then after it’s $1 per charm you also have to pay for the chain (each chain is different usually around $6-$8) then you also have to pay for assembly fee if you want them to assemble it for you there ($5) overall spent $21 not bad! Will come again”
“Tong is retiring soon , he has stopped stocking his store and many kits are still priced at the 1990s' prices , go get them before they are gone , thank you Mr.Tong for sticking around for almost 40 years on the same spot , really the last of its kind , again , many out of production kits there for a song , if you love modelling , go there asap”

“I love Michael's, they have the best selection of art supplies but don't be misled by these big corporations, support local small businesses. This city is already unaffordable, do we really want to support these giant conglomerates? No, so here's a tip: buy from local stores, steal from big corporations! (This post is for entertainment purposes only, I do not condone stealing);)”
“I live in Markham, but I keep coming back to this store because the staff are always polite, friendly, and professional.
I’ve bought new gear here, and years later returned to trade in my old equipment and purchase new ones again. The service has been excellent every time.
During my last visit, I saw a customer printing photos for his father’s funeral, and the staff kindly helped him without charging. That level of compassion really stood out to me.”
“I popped in on a friday night for a pickup and they were rammed with players at every table.
Very friendly and helpful staff. I was having issues with an online order and the manager was able to sort out the order with no further issues.
My only headache was the parking otherwise i would come back here often”
“Varieties strategic board games are available here. Those who love strategic games should visit this shop and try all those new and interesting games for them. I love their chess game collection!”
“I had walk-in service for my coins, and ICCS is the standard of the grading company. Professional, Friendly, and kind service that I appreciated and I could see how the grading was done in person. I will send more coins to ICCS and get my coins graded. They are one of the best grading service and the best in service in Canada with credibility.”

“The owner was super nice and helpful, assisting us in attempts to find a specific $10 note way beyond the boundaries of his store.
I bought 6 sets of Canadian stamps at the current international rate and 9 sets of US stamps at the international rate, all at face value, and some quite old!
Really nice experience and I'm lucky to be able to send very unique postcards home. Will come again on next visit to Toronto!”
“There is custom framing here but I believe the store is simply called Michael's. They carry a wide variety of art supplies and home decorating items. It's a big store so if it's art related they likely have it.”
“This may not be the best place to post this, but I was at the Lorowyn Face to Face event in Toronto Feb6-8 and it was a bast! I played in a ton of events, sold a bunch of cards and spent some money. This event got me back into playing Modern after many years of not playing Magic at all. So many people enjoying the game, it was insane :) The customer service at all the booths was amazing and especially at the Face to Face store front. The employee that helped me took the time to check with buyer's tables to see if they had any Solitudes come in because they had just sold out. He took the time to track three down and they wet right into my deck, so i could play them in my event! So nice! What a weekend, you guys are great!”
“Lots of great vintage games/consoles and also a huge selection of cards for collectors/players. It was nice seeing so many nostalgic pieces. Their store is quite large, they even have a section with tables for competition card matches. Buy, sell, trade available here. Will be going back again!”

“I came here with my boyfriend to look for a new lens for his camera. I don't know that much about cameras, but the employees were all very helpful, especially Nautica! She made a very good impression on both of us and it truly felt like she had our best interests in mind. We ended up buying a lens (I believe the Canon EF-S 18-135mm STM) and we've (mostly him) really enjoyed using it.”
“If you love tabletop games and/or models, do yourself a favour and check this place out! I always make an effort stop by here when I’m nearby. You will find an eclectic mix of just about everything. It’s a treat just to spend some time browsing their inventory. Thank you Meeplemart for being such a unique and memorable place to enjoy the nerdier things in life ❤️”
“Came for one specific item and an associate was able to help me after I looked around for a bit. Large location and fairly organized. Self checkout was useful but it prompted signing up for the rewards program which isn't ideal if you're in a rush.”
“A great well-stocked neighbourhood games shop with emphasis on TTRPGs and miniatures that also hosts games in a large space downstairs. Warhammer and mini supplies seem to be a special strength. Staff are helpful and knowledgeable! Very close to Lansdowne TTC.”
“Such a great experience purchasing my Honeycomb Bravo throttle from your company. It seemed the item instantly was shipped and arrived
Across Canada in a mere 7 days. Highly recommend purchasing from this awesome company.”
