“Rare, Retro and Imported Video games! This is hands down the best place for used games! I always swing by to check out what's new especially when I'm in the area. They always have a good selection of games and any given day there can be a new selection of used games so I like to come by as often as possible.
I picked up a Pink Gorilla hoodie most recently to get that lifetime used game and accessories discount of 10% all the time and 20% on Fridays.? There's more than just video games here. They also carry every type of gaming console including handhelds, magazines, controllers, and all types of other gaming equipment and gear you might just need. They even carry a large assortment of your favorite gaming plushies from Mario characters to Pokemon. They even carry Pokemon and Magic the gathering cards! If this store doesn't have what I need they're happy to check the system to see if one of the other locations has what I need. Even going as far as to deliver the item to this location making it very convenient. The staff here is very friendly and knowledgeable going above and beyond!”

“Every Time I’m in the area I swing by and pick something up from here. The man running the shop is always nice and gives some nice discounts. Prices are a lot better here than they are on Amazon.”
“I was in town for a comedy show and stopped into this shop by chance. But im glad I did. Great selection of current magic products. Priced at msrp which can be hard to come by. The vibe of the place felt warm and welcoming. The young man who helped me check out did a great job of pitching the stores custom Polaris sleeves and at only 7 bucks I had to give them a shot.
They have a lot of space for gaming and run local Pokémon and magic events. This is a game store worth stopping at.”
“What a fantastic place to shop and play games. You are able to try the games for free in their rental section. Great selection of games. Hope to see more table top and painting supplies.”
“Great store with lots of fun stuff. Most of the store has themed sections: cats, Big Foot, bacon, etc. The rubber chicken museum is super cute. They also have a lot of pickle-related items: bandages, playing cards, xmas ornaments, etc.”
“I stopped here while visiting Seattle in July 2022, and it was such a perfect little store. They sold cute little plush donuts and pastries at a reasonable price. Definitely a must do!!!”
“Happened to be in the neighborhood and noticed this gem! My boyfriend was super excited to find another book for his collection, while I rummaged through a box of random toys and found a Pokemon belt that fit me perfectly. Gotta check in on this place periodically for more finds!”
“I went to the store today. James was the only one who greeted me and also helped me check out. He was friendly and helpful. Thank you, James, for your help. Wishing you and your company a Merry Christmas ??”

“I LOVE this store. The owners are so sweet and kind! When I accidentally lost a few of my balloons and went back, they refilled and gave me new ones and didn’t even charge me for it! The shop has a wide assortment of party supplies and has a great selection of balloons. Truly such a happy store. Support small businesses like these - they deserve everything. :)”
“Absolutely fabulous store with staff that truly goes above and beyond! I was shopping with my toddler nephew when he began to break down into a fit. Thankfully, one of your associates, Sophie, was present and helped quell the disturbance. She then proceeded to provide me with great advice as to how to calm him down in future situations. She is so good with children! She then gave me some amazing toy recommendations to ensure he develops to his full potential. Truly amazing! I will definitely be returning to this location and hopefully will be able to see Sophie again! 5/5 stars”
“A well maintained, vibe-y and professionally run retro video game & collectible store! I swing by periodically and it's always a joy to browse and interact with the folks who work here. The staff is very knowledgable, kind and helpful!
They have a great selection of used games, sealed collectibles and rare finds. Young or old, this place is bound to have something awesome for you! Definitely one of my favorite local stores in Seattle. <3”

Is an amazing cashier my sister and I went in there today to buy The wizard of Oz wicked set and we talked about Jonathan Bailey and it was beyond awesome how friendly and how easy it is to come into a store with such a positive cashier full of smiles and positivity. Iris.deserves a raise 10/10 coming again”
“Perfect spot for last-minute gifts — you’re bound to find something for everyone! Especially handy during the holiday season. The store is full of fun little knick-knacks, and you could easily spend a lot of time browsing through everything. I love that everything upstairs is color-coordinated — makes shopping even more enjoyable. It can get a little overstimulating on weekends with the crowds, but that’s part of the lively charm of the place.”
“There is something special about being able to browse books in person and expose yourself to new authors and titles. Staff is friendly, helpful and ready with recommendations.
Northgate location is very convenient, with plenty of parking and public transportation close by. This store has music too (Vinyl and CD's).”
“I've been playing at this Uncle's location for a few years, and it's an awesome place for gaming and finding out about new games. The staff is super helpful and accommodating to people that want to learn and play. Dan and Irene are especially friendly and like to learn about games they are new to from customers, making it a real community.”

“Had an excellent customer service interaction with Lakeshore learning store in Bellevue. Had an issue with a previously purchased product and was helped promptly - they went above and beyond and I am grateful.”
“Cannot say enough how wonderful this store is! The amazing employees greet me so warmly each time and make the consignment process so easy. I love that they have high standards for the clothes they accept so I know whenever I shop I am purchasing great, like new items!”
“I had an absolutely fantastic first experience with this business. I brought in a collection of action figures that I was wanting to sell, and I've never had an easier or friendlier time visiting hobby and toy shops. I was helped by Jeff, who was incredibly friendly and was great to talk with while we looked through everything. As I looked around the shop, I was blown away by how much they had and how incredible the prices were. I can't recommend this store enough to any fellow collectors.”

“Fun place to find different types of toys. Sure you can scour amazon but seeing everything in person and a packed variety of puzzles, games, toys, Legos, stuffies, makes you think about what you dont see when scouring the Internet for toys.”
“This is an outstanding store for finding toys for kids of all ages and abilities, engaging books, and sensory integrative products to promote learning. Perhaps because I’m a retired occupational therapist, I was especially impressed by the variety of items for sensory integration. Pediatric OTs and special ed teachers, in particular, would love this store, which has something for everyone. If I was a kid, this would be one of my favorite stores because I love to learn while having fun.
A bonus is complimentary gift wrapping. Each of my purchases were beautifully wrapped. Free of charge! Can’t beat that.
It’s located in The Landing in Renton. The staff are helpful and friendly. Teachers get a discount. I highly recommend Learning Express.”
“So delighted to find this Spawn comic there. I had forgotten how joyful it is to peruse a comic book store. There are just so many comics that I had simply forgotten about and delighted to discover again. I can spend hours here. The staff seems pretty friendly, too.”
“I absolutely love taking my kids to this place. The selection of toys is amazing. There's also a kids' hair salon in the back, and the hairdressers are so good that my kids actually enjoy getting their haircut and sit still.”
“Wyatt is the absolute best! He helped me find a gift for two kids I teach and was so patient while explaining all the Douglas stuffed animals! He is so kind and funny and so knowledgeable about all the toys and what kids are into these days! He’s genuinely the sweetest, he wrapped up the gifts so beautifully and I’m so excited to present the stuffed animals we chose to the kids! Wyatt truly went above and beyond and I’m so glad I stopped into the store today and got to meet him! I’ll definitely be purchasing all future gifts here! Thank you so much Wyatt! ☺️”
“I visited here for a gift for my kids while visiting Seattle, and I was very pleased with the options. The shop owner greeted me as I walked in and was very helpful in helping me to find a great toddler shirt for my son. I was surprised how hard it was to find a toddler shirt in the area, but this store had both a decent variety as well as cute options. I left very pleased with my purchase and my son wears his Seattle shirt as often as he can! I highly recommend this store.”
“This is the cutest store for kids and babies! The staff are friendly and helpful if you are looking for something in particular. I love that they have used stuff because kids go through things quickly and it’s more sustainable! You can sell your stuff to them as well. It’s just fun to be in there. It’s a colorful, cozy delight just to visit.”
“The store is so well organized and easy to search, the ladies at the front desk were so sweet and helpful ? my daughter enjoyed so much all the little details she received (chocolates, draw, sticker, smiles and good vibes) ?”
“Absolutely love this bookstore!! The kids area is especially great - my kids could play here forever and love discovering new books. The staff is super kind and helpful, especially Laurie who helped us when we had an issue with our Independent Bookstore Day prize. The cookbook area is my personal favorite but there is always something new to find here.”
