New Review: time to give this place a better review. I'd like to start by saying that after the first review I stopped by at least 4 times and the place was closed even though it was during business hours. Luckily I finally got to go in twice. Their employee was there the first time and he was extremely helpful. I was looking for specific comics and they weren't as orangized as I was hoping but honestly that's hard anyways. Today I went in and met the owner. He was super nice and let me look through comics that weren't even added to the system yet.

The collection of used is pretty decent. They are neatly in boxes and easy to go through. In general for the size of the store they have a lot and great variety. Everything is easy to find and you can tell the place has pride put in it based how nicely everything is set up. I'm glad that I was able to give this place another try. For sure will continue to visit. Thank you

Also I'd love to work here if yall are ever hiring.

Old Review:I've waited so far an hr and 20 min. Now I know that's a little on me but the owner assured me that someone was coming to open. While I waited, at least 9 other people waited and left. This is insanely unprofessional. I will change me review if I come back and actually get to go inside.

I was so excited to come here. I looked forward to this for a hot second. So...

Be wary buying single cards from this shop. Asked on their Facebook Ad what they used to price their cards as they had 5.99 on cards that are worth a dollar. Instead of responding or trying to explain their price point they deleted the comment and blocked me. If you do buy singles at least price check them first so you're not getting ripped off. Would think as a small business they'd at least try and respond or maybe adjust their inflated prices.

Edit: I have been in the store as I bought a final fantasy starter deck and actually sold them a bunch of pokemon packs way under market, but they didn't see that conversation since they blocked me. Not a direct competitor as I offer grading services and mainly online sales. Did reach out insulting me at first but have been in discussion regarding a card and has...

My 9 year old grandson just started to really show an interest in comic books so we went here for his birthday. The clerk could not have been more helpful and friendly. He interacted with my grandson like he was a true collector, rather than a nine year old kid. They enjoyed a conversation about a character that was new to the clerk that my grandson was looking for. Since they did not have what we originally came for, several other Marvel comics were suggested and purchased. We were given a discount along with an extra free comic. We left a very happy 9 year old, a grandma and satisfied customers who will return. Thank you Corning Comics & Collectibles for taking the time to make a 9 year old feel important...
