“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I had a great experience at TAP Plastics in Portland. I was looking for a sheet of plastic for my aquarium because the original one kept bowing after a few days. Logan helped me out and cut a new piece to the exact size I needed.
He was very pleasant, kind, and took the time to make sure everything was right. The new piece fits perfectly and solved the problem. Excellent customer service and quality work. I’ll definitely be back!”
“love seeing a local business with such a large collection of supplies! the staff went above and beyond helping me find what I was looking for while creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere! highly recommend”
“One of my favorite stores, ever, actually… the family history, the range of items collected and sold is vast. Come for trains, games, music media, posters, freeze-fried candy, even. You’ll wanna come back. & a word of advice, just get it. You don’t wanna leave and wish you got it.
Oh, and you can sell there too if you have a collection or item you want to get a number on. Chat with them the next time you’re in.
Enjoy your visit!”
“Coolest group of guys work at this shop. They saved my fishing trip when I got my gear stolen. Gave me a deal on a set of Simms G4z waders so I can fish! 1000 stars.”
“Excellent model train store. Best selection of O gauge I’ve found in ages, but of course it has a plethora of the smol stuff also. Top shelf service as well. Other stores have to “call a guy” when instead, Whistle Stop has their own in-house tech. Definitely coming back.”
“Despite only visiting a handful of times, this place has quickly become one of my favorites for model trains. Good prices compared to others in the area, plus a very extensive section of scenery materials. And manages to feel cozy, but not cluttered in the slightest!”
“Epic store. Always a fantastic experience with aisles full of products for every possible art style and task. There were aisles for drawing, sketching, ink, stationery, papers, framing, sculpting, coloured pencils, books, accessories, a nicely stocked gift corner and so much more.
Never underestimate what they may have, and when in doubt check the website and then give the store a call to ask if the items are in the store. With a webstore or that size it's not possible to have it all, but it's pretty close to it!”

“Pros: great gaming facility, well-stocked Cafe, decent entry fee to pay out ratio for tournaments and pre release events
Cons: limited game selection, bad parking
Takeaway: Best balance between price and gaming area in the city combined with exceptional pay out for tournaments makes Red Castle the number one game store overall.”
“We recently had a birthday party here for my son and it was great. The staff was friendly provided lego building for the kids and also gave my son a birthday lego gift. These guys were just awesome. Thank you for making it fun and easy for us.”
“Such a wonderful shop! Jampa, (the owner), is such a nice person, and as wonderful to talk to as he is kind. The shop itself is a treasure trove of discovery! So many wondrous things await in here! Do yourself a favor and check it out, and be sure to talk to Jampa too! Also: they carry Tibetan Medicine which is wonderful!”
“Nice environment, customer base, store manager very helpful, and respectful. I went to just pick up a Pre Order and get out. I chose to just hang out for about an hour. I'm looking forward to returning, and I might even game there in the future even though it's not close to where I live and there are other game stores closer.”
“Fabulous service! Very friendly and interested about where I found the $20 Hawaii bill plus Deborah provided history that I didn't even know about. Prices were the highest from the 3 places I went to. Glad I remembered they were there in LO.”
“I’ve been going to Disc Heroes for 4 years now and have nothing but good things to say about it!John and his staff are all really great. They are very knowledgeable and friendly. I shop for comics but they also have a large selection of magic cards and tournaments on a regular basis, and a great supply of disc golf equipment hence the name Disc Heroes. I really think that’ if you are looking for a LCS or are into gaming be it cards or a an upgrade on your equipment you should check them out!”
“This is a follow-up to a review I left on Sat. Can't find it to go and add an addendum. But after a couple more phone calls the management looked and found what looks like my sewing machine case. Thank you for your attention to this matter,”

“Very knowledgeable and friendly owner. His store has good variety and exudes a comforting nostalgia . I love taking my son here we always find something he loves.”
“An absolutely delightful shop. We stumbled upon other worlds, games and comics on a whim after having breakfast just down the building at Gigi's Cafe. It was free comic book day! I'm not a comic book person but told personnel my interests in things like video games and movies and they were able to direct me to the perfect comics for me! And now I'm hooked! Whether you're already a comic fan or you're looking for a new hobby, I cannot recommend Other Worlds Games and Comics more! They are absolutely fantastic.”

“Been in a few times now to play card games here and every time has been a great experience. The owners are friendly, welcoming, and facilitated an excellent experience each time I've come in.”
“I had a great customer service experience here today. I called with some questions about a particular comic book and the attendant answered all my questions and even took the time to search up release dates. Great job Thank you”
“It's a good place with a very for the customer feel. The staff feel like they care about you and are interested with what's happening.
I come in from time to time to check their cards out and they run fair prices.”
“Drove up from Lebanon. Worth the drive. I traded some vintage Star Wars stuff for store credit. EXCELLENT selection of vintage toys/collectibles. Will definitely be coming back on a regular basis to see what they have.”
“Really neat place for all sorts of different collectors.
I’m thankful to have a place like this in the Portland area that is actually authentic and isn’t up charging.
The workers are always helpful and the vibe is very chill, it doesn’t feel overbearing or intimidating.”
“It is always special these days, in most stores, when you can get customer service on the floor to help you find an item so I wanted to take a minute to give this store a shout out. I had a need for a particular piece of plastic sheeting to, believe it or not, create a special drain on an exterior gutter. I figured a sales person on the floor would give me a crazy look and basically say no, don't have anything that would work. Fortunately, I asked Kati, and she said she loved a challenge so off we went! In a few minutes she had shown me several options in plastic sheeting and I chose one of those. it was perfect. Wow, can't thank Kati enough for helping me and having a fun attitude was a real bonus! Love this store. P.S. The check out lady was very nice, too. Sorry, didn't get her name.”

“Honestly if there was a way to give these guys more star I would. This is hands down the best hobby shop for rc’ers I’ve ever been too. They’re so funny and knowledgeable and always always willing to help me figure out what up with my electronics when they go wonky. Literally the only hobby shop I recommend to people.”
“Good people but high prices and they don't offer much when you want to sell games back to them. But they do have nice, knowledgeable, and willing to help employees.”
“I am giving a five star review because the review from Logan says he has a Michael Jordan RC from 1992. Sorry but Jordan’s RC is 1986 so what you have is probably a $5-10 card at best. I don’t think it’s fair to give negative ratings to businesses based on bad information.”
“My favorite place to go when I only need one thing!! ? I always find way more than I went for and am happy when I leave!! A perfect shopping trip every time!!”
