“Horrible. I really hate this store. There are NEVER enough cashiers working. It takes another cashier almost 15 minutes to come assist ,meanwhile the line is getting longer and longer. I will never return to the one on City Ave.”

“I love Michael's because of the great deals and products they carry. However I like this location because of the people that work here and the convenience of the area. The workers in here are friendly and quite knowledgeable about where things are located in the store and on certain topics too. That's a big thing for me! If you do crafting or like to make things once in a while this is one of the best places to go outside of a hobby shop!”

“"Mostly Books" is an understatement. "More books than you can shake a stick at" is a more fitting description. A really special place that I'm glad we popped into.”

“I'm actually not much of a board game player or TTRPGer myself but I still love this place. I pick up a new game and/or shiny trinket every now and then but even when I'm not in the market for anything, there's always enough interesting stuff to keep me busy window-shopping while my friends do the real shopping. The atmosphere over at 7th Dimension is great. The people there are friendly and despite my social anxiety's best efforts, I don't get that "You don't belong here. Why are you here?" feeling that I tend to get in most gaming stores.”

“As someone who’s has friends who want to get me back into trading card games (begrudgingly; it’s an expensive hobby) the staff we’re super helpful with what what questions I had, what has changed in the game in the last 12 years, etc. I had no issues getting the help I needed. They even gave me some free Land cards to help with getting back into building decks. Certainly will be back to restock on what I need going forward.”

“Large store with most of what we were looking for. Only gripe about this place is how difficult it is to find somebody to help. Also, the columns to hold the ceiling up are in the middle of some aisle entries making it difficult to navigate at times.”

“It's hard to believe I haven't been in this store. It was a relaxing experience The music, the kind sales staff, the positive messages on plack's and art work. I'm not sure about the many many pictures of cows but I'm sure there is an explanation. As for shopping great sales and plenty of inventory. Don't miss this opportunity to shop and relax.
Back to the store today beautiful Christmas decorations.”

“I purchased some new Warhammer model kits thru “Enter the Realm” on Facebook marketplace. He was a few bucks cheaper than all the other guys, didn’t push for anything extra, and was responsive and understanding of all my questions/concerns.

Very pleased with my transaction and would easily recommend him and his store to another. Btw I live in a different state than the store too.

Give them a look. You won’t be disappointed. Did me a real good deal.”

“I'm sorry for the people who've had negative experiences here with employees. The site itself if pretty clean but a little cramped. I have noticed throughout the years the game spaces have shrunk. There are so many more consoles available now a days that it leaves less room for games. I used to have to look at 2 sections of walls for games. Now it's down to one. And it seems new and used games are now combined. Kind of crazy to think about. Anyway I digress. This GameStop site came in clutch for me. After Target's massive failure for me to obtain a PS5 console and automatic cancellation of my order 8 times in a row (yes it's literal) I went online to GameStop and found limited availability of the console at this location. I did try to call but couldn't reach anyone. But I may have been calling off store hours to be honest. I was specifically looking for the GOW bundle. Well, this was one of the few locations left with a good amount of stock. I think people forget this store is here since it can blend in with the rest of the stores. I went ahead and placed my order online and received my pickup notice by that night. I'm sure it saved me the fact I got pro membership since the sale was only for pro members. Proud to confirm I picked up my order and it is in fact a very real feeling and smelling PS5. Yes, I smelled it. Don't judge me lol. Thank you guys for everything. I was surprised they have a system in place to track the stock. I received a receipt with a sticker label they put on my receipt and on a tracking form they have at the desk. It matches the specific console to the buyer so it ensures your console order isn't stolen. At least that's where my mind went. To ensure your order is safe and not stolen by employees it tracks order pickup and the correct amount of in stock. Pretty cool if I say so myself. At least now I can game this Christmas season and not have to wait a long time for more production. Now to save up for the PSVR2 and right back to this site for my preorder.”
