It has recently been revealed that this store - which claims to be supportive of LGBTQIA+ individuals - is only willing to back up their claim to this, if there is a display of abject discrimination within the walls of the store (although I have seen no proof to back this up).
When my wife came to the manager, asking to be protected from someone who flat out told her that he would not respect her pronouns, and would therefore be inflicting mental and emotional violence on her, said manager only replied, "I didn't see it. It didn't happen in the store. There's nothing I can do."
Later, when I came to the store to discuss his inaction, I was told, "People that come to our store, I will protect as best I can, but things that happen outside of here are not my jurisdiction. I can't punish people for things that happen outside of the store." "I am doing the best I can, as a business, to be respectful to everyone. I'm not going to pre-judge people, because they're ignorant, that have nothing to do with me, and nothing to do in my store. I can't just say, 'I heard that you were a bad guy, you can't come into my store.'" And then, when I offered to send him proof of the threats, he exclaimed, "I don't want it!"

Read moreMy kiddo and I collect Pokemon cards and this is our new fave place to come. Low key and casual store with super friendly and knowledgeable staff, plus incredibly fair prices. Way better place to shop than Game Stop, with a better selection and prices on everything from booster packs to box sets. Support this amazing local gem with passionate owners and staff! They even have their own loyalty program and you can shop online. Plus ask to check out the singles binders! We didn't know they had them until recently and they're great to look through for some reasonable prices on V/Max/Star etc cards. Can't...
Read moreGreat spot to get anything related to your hobbies, from 40k to MTG to paints... They have got you covered. The owner and his son and amazing to deal with, so friendly and knowledgeable. The ONLY reason I gave 3 stars is because of the employee there Chris. Me and my partner have dealt with him many times and he is often rude to us, abrupt, and is not good with customer service. He always manages to make me feel like I shouldn't be there. My partner has been a loyal customer for 6 years and because of Chris we are leaning towards not shopping here any longer, which makes us both very...
