The Shop Game Shop — Local services in Elyria

Live within walking distance and only just discovered this store is here.

Stopped in while running errands, and nobody bothered to greet me, or even make eye contact. No attempt to acknowledge I was in the store at all.

I hope they are just new and will learn and succeed over time. But for now, there are better shops...
