If you go here for Asian decor, cosplay, or weaponry, you'll be fine. But DO NOT go here for anime merchandise. TRUST ME.
I went about a week ago to buy a fan and a wallet. The button that kept the wallet closed broke off within a week and was definitely bootleg. The fabric on my fan ripped off after two days of use. They had about 15 wall scrolls in the store, but only one was branded. Every other wall scroll was bootleg. All but two of their wallets were bootleg. EVERY SINGLE KEYCHAIN AND BAG IS BOOTLEG. Basically, if it's on their cashier counter, it's definitely bootleg. Nothing is of good quality. Everything will break after a month or so.
None of your money is going towards the animation companies who make the anime you love. You aren't supporting your favorite shows when you buy from them. Buy online at Animate or go down to AnimePOP instead. You could get real, licensed, quality items online for cheaper than their bootleg counterparts at Asian Living are being sold, I assure you. It's practically robbery.
Not to mention the customer service is abysmal. You are never greeted when you walk in, and the sole cashier never offers their help. When we asked if they had a Master Sword, the only help we received was the cashier pointing her finger towards the wall, where about twenty other swords were bundled together. She didn't even try to walk towards them and pull it out for us. It took us almost a...
Read moreOkay so i went to texas to visit, and we went to the grapevine mall. There was a store called asian living AND IT WAS LIKE HEAVEN TO ME! I'm a HUGE kpop and anime fan, so i walked in and there was so much merch! The store is pretty small but the stuff are amazing. I bought a Hatsune Miku figure for $12 which on other web sites its like $40! The posters were about 3 or 4 dollars, and they have so many groups! I got a G-dragon (BIGBANG) and Baekhyun (EXO-K) posters which were a good size for the price. I didnt have that much on me but I wouldve gotten more. I know they have 2ne1, EXO K (not EXO- M, i was a bit disappointed since Lu Han is my bias but that's okay) Girls Generation, SHINee, Super Junior, 2pm, U-KISS. I forgot the rest but they have ALOT! They also sell backpacks with anime and kpop groups on them. Some asian clothing like kimonos, scroll posters, keychains, plushies (mainly Pokemon) and all kinds of asian stuff! I can't wait to go back texas and go there to buy more posters and hopefully plushies! (PS. I ASKED THE LADY THAT WORKED THERE FOR THE POSTERS, YOU GOTTA ASK AND SHE'LL TELL WHICH GROUPS SHE HAS AND SHOW YOU THE ONES SHE HAS...
Read moreDO NOT 🚫 BUY HERE! Absolutely garbage cheap products, I bought a figure that's really small, it looked good quality in the glass cabinet and whenever I purchased one it came in a tight bag, whenever I opened it at home to my surprise the skintone didn't match the neck and hands, the figure was poorly painted and I saw the same item on temu and other sites for far cheaper, save you're money, the figure cost me 10.99 plus tax, seriously run for you're life and don't ever go here again, the pillows artwork is hilariously poor printed, they where selling jackets for 40$🥹 and I saw the SAME one for $10 ONLINE, I bought one from here and the quality is so bad and cheaply made, i have to be really careful with it since the seams are loose and all that, don't buy nothing here , save you're money please. DO NOT BUY THE FIGURES THE QUALITY IS SO BAD, PLEASE BUY THE OFFICIAL ONES FOR THE SAME PRICE OR LOWER AND...
