There's Fun In Store — Local services in Aurora Township

The store is in a great location and inside it is very neat and the selection of cards and product is amazing…. Unfortunately that’s all the positives I have to say about this location because I fully understand you have to make money for your business to thrive but selling way above market value is just insane and I feel horrible for the people getting taking advantage of just wanting to buy a simple Etb which the market is $65 for around $100. My other issue is the owner who was super condescending off rip. I asked him about his graded card section to which he replied a lot of people are wasting my time with those, are you actually serious and do you have the money to buy those cards because you might not have the budget for those. That caught me off guard but a last he did have a decent selection so I decided to look in his case and research the cards myself because none of them were priced. I found a card that I wanted checked his kiosk it stated 139.99 that definitely couldn’t be right since market for the card Raw was $120 he had a PSA 8 in the case which I researched 4 different websites EBay last 3 sold 130Point Price Charting and TCGPlayer and the market value of the PSA 8 was $65. When I asked him if he could match the listings or I’d be willing to pay even $71 since there was an active listing on eBay for $71 he cut me off mid sentence and said well just buy that then. I also forgot to mention he told me he didn’t feel comfortable letting go of the card for less then $140 which by the way is double the value of his card, I told him if he wanted to sell it for $140 he should just crack the card out the slab and sell it raw then instead of having it in his case. He also stated that this was just an “influx” in the market and this card should be worth way more…. News flash Phillip Pokémon’s market is always going up and down people are always pumping and dumping cards just like stocks but you are someone in the community that only cares about the dollar and not about your customers. Needless to say I will never shop here or his 4 other locations in my lifetime. I know of multiple card shops nearby that are amazing and fair and that your business would be appreciated way more and that you won’t get scammed as well either. So please if you’re looking for Pokemon or just any TCG cards for a reasonable price this is not the...

Grand Scalpers. I don’t understand where any of these positive reviews come from. I checked out this store at the Aurora outlet mall and was extremely disappointed. I also met the owner who was extremely rude and full of himself. Every question was met with sarcasm and rudeness. Every single thing in the store is marked up to the literal max amount. $10 for a pack of surging sparks is insane. Pokémon ETBs $30/40 over market price. Don't even get me started on MTG. You are much better off buying online from other sources. Thee only thing I can say positively about this store is the amount of stuff they have but like I said your paying...

I can’t say much about the CCGs, but their selection of Blokees is outstanding. They have a HUGE selection (even the hard to find Devestator combiner pieces). Their prices are SRP, not inflated like other hobby shops or toy stores (looking at you Toys R Us imposter!) The staff is friendly and talkative.

I’ve been to the premium outlets only about 3 times in the last 10 years, but since this store opened, I’ve been back 4 times in...
