“This place has been around for a long time and keeps reinventing itself. They have a mixture of glass cases and open booths. It is the perfect size to stroll through. There are two floors, with the bottom one shared with a large rock shop which is great fun if you enjoy that sort of thing. I found a wide range in prices from not bad to you must be kidding. There is a really nice assortment of merchandise, with several of the dealers having a specialty area they focus on. Great sources for records, antique glassware and lots of vintage clothing. A local woodworker has a beautiful display of handmade cutting boards. There is something for everyone and ample parking.”
“I loooooove this store. Kris has a few passion for anime, and they not only get super cool items, but they are a WEALTH of knowledge and recommendations for shows!! 10/10, no notes.”

“Stopped in with my nephew yesterday . Such a cute store . Reminds me of a
local family owned toy shops that used to be everywhere now they are few and far between . Love how they have free gift wrapping . Staff were so friendly and inviting . They had a wide selection of in demand toys and fidgets . Will definitely bring him back here if in this are again .”
“One of the coolest, best hobbyshops I've been in in years. There is plenty t o choose from, no matter what your hobby! If your a Lionel collector, I recommend this store. Doug, Carol and Jax the dog make it a great place.”
“I have had many great experiences dealing with Danny and AJ and Kevin at Diamond State C&C. They are 100% honest and pay the best prices for jewelry, silver, and coins! As an example, for kicks, my Sister and I got a price on a 14k gold necklace there and just to see-we went to another establishment less than 1 mile away and were offered 1/2 the price. Of course DS C&C is our go to place.
Best to call for an appointment.”
“Great experience overall!!!!! Looking forward to going back and learning more about crystals, gems and arrowheads!!! Highly recommended if you’d like to learn more about crystals or etc.”
“I haven’t been in the store but called with a few simple(probably really dumb)questions as someone who doesn’t know bunch about this stuff. When I tell you I have NEVER experience this level of customer service in my life I’m not kidding. The gentleman I spoke to was patient, kind and very honest. If he didn’t know the answer he had no problem politely telling me to not give me any wrong information. I look forward to dealing with them again soon!”
“This is an outstanding store with a lot of character. Stores like Simpson's hobbies are very rare nowadays, and if you grew up with stores like these you will know exactly what I am talking about. The owner is near 100 years old and still working. He is a WW2 Navy vet with some pictures of his service and the stories behind them in the shop. The other gentleman who works there is a wealth of knowledge on all things hobby and history, and has a deep knowledge of all the products in the store. When you go to this store you get the kind of experience you just can't get at a big name store or online. If you are a parent with a child who likes models, RC, rockets, or other fun things like those rubber band driven planes, please take your kids here it is like a paradise for kids (and adults) interested in this stuff. For adults who maybe used to have a store like this growing up, this store will be an awesome trip down memory lane and you probably will not leave empty handed LOL. Highly recommend you support this awesome small business.”
“Looks like an awesome attic with lots of hidden gems, but good luck w/Dan letting you in the store. Call # on the door- you will have a pleasant + funny conversation when you try”
“Really great experience. Walked in with my daughter (8 years old) who wanted to build her first Pokemon battle deck. Keith took care of her from start to finish, built a custom deck, explained how to use the cards, and other tips and tricks. He was knowledgable, but most importantly he never once looked annoyed, burdened, or dismissive of her, and was very friendly. The store itself was clean, well lit and busy with foot traffic. The rest of the staff and even customers were very polite and friendly, the whole shop had a very neighborhood feel. Highly recommend, and will absolutely be attending their events.”
“Had some old family photos framed recently, and the experience was wonderful. The employee was patient while I chose the frame and matting, and the final product turned out flawless and beautiful. Excellent customer service from start to finish.”

“The Mall is huge, it took me 2.5 hours to explore both floors and I thoroughly enjoyed my visit. Thank you to everyone who took time to talk, it was a pleasure meeting you all. Also, thank you for your help with protecting the painting I bought so that I can ship it home safely.
The rock and fossil area on the lower floor is spectacular, but there are also many other well curated areas with interesting items.
Bring your id with you if you intend to pay by credit card, as you will be politely asked to show it if you elect to pay that way.”
