Teton Toys is a really cool store. We first visited in 2019. When we made plans to once again travel from FL to Jackson on a camping trip my 8 year old was so excited to visit Teton Toys again. He really wanted to get another Lego from there. The staff was very friendly and the stock was great but I do have big beef with the pricing on most of their Lego selection. Some were retail price, perfect. Most others were marked up 25%-65%. SIXTY FIVE PERCENT markup! I kindly asked the associate why that is and I was told “Because it’s Jackson and some of these aren’t available elsewhere.” Okay, fine. But one that my son really wanted retails for $120, is available anywhere at retail price, and is tagged at $160 at Teton Toys, full 25% markup. One that I ended up getting him because he wanted one from there so bad retails at $24. Teton Toys tags it at $40, 65% markup. I got it for him anyway because he had been looking forward to it so much. On the way out I saw a Star Wars Millennium Falcon available EVERYWHERE including target, Amazon Prime with free 2 day shipping, EBay etc that retails for $800-$850. Teton Toys? $1,200!! FOUR HUNDRED dollar markup on a Lego available pretty much everywhere. I had to...

As a millennial, I have fond childhood memories of visiting toy stores, & often find myself disappointed that my children haven’t shared the experience of wandering toy aisles dreaming up their birthday & Christmas lists (hate to say it, but a handful of Target aisles or scrolling Amazon just isn’t the same). This store had to have absolutely every toy imaginable and at really comparable prices to what might be found online. Supporting a small business is always a delight when the location is as convenient, the selection as incredible, and the staff as warm and personable as this Teton Toys was. Ice cream across the street was one of the only ways I could (happily) pry my family out of the store after 1+ hours. My only hopeful wish is that you all migrate down south to Colorado so the experience is as accessible and quintessential for the...
Read moreI normally don’t review places but my experience left me with such a sour taste in the mouth. I called ahead asking about a product and was assured it would be in on Friday. It sounded like they already had it they just couldn’t release it till Friday. I go in a few days before to double check and they assured it would be in on Friday. Friday rolls around and I’m told not only do they not have it, it won’t be in any time soon.
I wouldn’t care so much if they just didn’t carry the product, but multiple different employees assured me they would have it. On top of the unpleasant smell on my first visit and the considerably marked up prices I just can’t recommend...
