D King Gallery Rock Posters — Attraction in Berkeley

If you are looking for a quality online shopping experience D. King Gallery is not your place. Or a place where you can trust the store owner.

I ordered a set of sleeves from Mr. King and returned them in the original box without even taking the sleeves out of the box. I had found a better solution for storing my posters. The sleeves were untouched. It took me 4 phone calls to reach Mr King. I left multiple message and emails. None of them were returned.

Finally once I did reach Mr. King, he told me they don't usually take back the sleeves but since they were untouched, he would take them back. BUT he insisted I get insurance on the package. This sounded very odd.

Of course I did get insurance and sent the package back. After confirming the package was delivered I again called multiple times. One I got him on the phone, Mr. King said he received the package and that it was damaged. Wait? So you don't call your customers to tell them this? You make them call you to track down the package?

He was admit that UPS would handle this as a claim and that they "stop by the store" every day. Well of course, UPS didn't approve the claim because they insisted the package was not packed right. Mr. King packed it! So long story short, an online purchase later has lost me a couple hundred dollars. Thank you Mr. King.

D. King Gallery is no where close to having the quality of service you grow to expect from businesses in Berkeley and those deal in great art. Very disappointing experience. I hope no one ever has to go through the same ordeal as I have or lose out on a couple...

I have been a customer of Dennis King since the seventies. Dennis is knowledgeable and prices are extremely fair. I have purchased sports cards for five dollars that are worth thousands today. The gallery has a fantastic selection of vintage rock posters and sports and non sports cards. There are also old comic books, sports memorabilia, and some old toys. Dennis is also an expert on Japanese sports cards.

I vividly remember my first purchase from Dennis King, when I was seeking the last card for my 1962 Mars Attacks set. Dennis told me I was offering too much for the last cards in the card collecting magazine, The Trader Speaks. Well, the cards are worth...

DK Gallery is the one of the hidden gems of the East Bay. Store owner Dennis King is a human database of knowledge about all things collectible. His secret stash of sports cards and legendary rock posters is second to none in all of California.

I stumbled across his store and my jaw dropped to the floor with the amount of ridiculously rare items i saw hanging on the walls.

Do yourself a favor; if youre ever in Berkeley stop by (open Thursday - Sat). You wont...
