FYE — Local services in Montclair

A bit of nostalgia, a bit of the new. That's how I'd describe FYE in general. It honestly surprises me this chain has survived post-mid-2000s once CDs and DVDs started fading in popularity. But I think it's because it jumped onto gamer culture, anime, and movie fandoms by carrying merchandise and some trendy decor and snacks. What I love about this FYE is it's one of the closest ones to me (I don't think I ever grew up seeing a FYE in a SoCal mall for some reason; they're more common on the East Coast) and I can come here and still see physical DVDs, which sometimes is an easier way to discover new titles you've never watched as opposed to jumping around on IMDB. This location also still has some CDs (heavily discounted, of course). It's a fun place to go into, and the range of kids to teens and adults inside browsing proves that everyone just wants some fun and entertainment sometimes. I ironically have never bought anything here before though, but the line always seems to...

I always visit this store because I love to browse the dvds and such in case I get lucky and find something in my interests or a good potential gift. My most recent visit left me feeling so surprised, though. I was browsing the store as usual and it took me a moment to realize a worker had been following me throughout the entire store the whole time. Over and over again I'd see her watching me and I've never had that experience there before. As I was leaving, the cashier was yelling at an older man who was trying to make sure he had exact change. She yelled things like "Of course you have the change you were asking everyone for it" and called security on him. I won't be stopping by here anymore since it's run by such disrespectful and angry people. I've even checked reviews on Yelp and many are complaining about being followed through the store there as well. Overall, just a very insulting visit and I hope better employees flush these...
