Storyteller Comics & Games — Local services in Rapid City

Stopped in yesterday to pick up some card sleeves. I was looking for Fantasy Flight Games or Gamegenic standard European board game size (purple color code). The man running the store asked if there’s anything I was looking for and I told him I was wondering if he carried any card sleeves. He immediately snapped “We don’t have any” and went back to organizing Massive The Gathering cards.

The comic book industry is growing and this is not a great way to expand comics within Rapid City. My mother and my brother have decided to take their business out of Rapid City and have asked me to add the series they are interested in to my box at my local comic shop in CO. We should be encouraging new readers, not discouraging and shaming new comers with their questions. I am extremely...

I was astounded by how rude the gentleman running the store was to me.

I have a hard time hearing and the clerk made what I thought was a tongue-in-cheek comment on my impairment. It happens a lot so I thought it was no big deal until I began to read an opened, official manual that blended Magic the Gathering and Dungeon's and Dragons.

Apparently, this was not the right thing to do, even if I was interested in purchasing it because I was literally told "Browsing is okay, but if you want to read, the library is two blocks that way."

It was a great suggestion. I won't patronise this...
