My 14 yr old son went in to sell some of his video games and they took advantage of him. Game is going for over $100 on eBay and they gave him $10. Seriously? Really nice guys. Nice way to make money

Great selection of retro games from Sega Genesis and all eras of Playstation, plus some figures and lots of comics. A few months ago, I sold them my collection of DC graphic novels, and they paid a very good price.

First time here and I’ll definitely be coming back soon! The environment inside feels like I’m truly stepping back in time. I just recent got interested in collecting 80s comics, so this is the place to be! Wish I could give 10 stars!
