What's in here?

by Elsilbon1 at Citysearch

I'm a great Yu-Gi-Oh fan and I'm looking for places where I can find cheaper prices on booster boxes than the internet, maybe. So I came by here and saw the quite difference with the good and bad reviews. So I live kinda far so I don't want to loos my gas on going over there and not getting out satisfied. So my questions are do you have boxes like "Shadow of Infinity", "Hidden Arsenal 5", Duelist Pack Yugi", "Duelist Pack Kaiba"? Maybe? or the "Gold Series 4: Pyramid Edition", "Retro Pack" 1 & 2, and "Dark Beginnings 1". I'd appreciate it for some early info before I go over there. Thanks!

Great Store....Kid Friendly

by Mrunnels at Citysearch

What a great place to bring your child....The owner is awesome with children and tries to provide a good, safe atmosphere to bring your child into the store....There are times that parents will leave there childeren while they shop and then come back later....Him and his girlfriend are always willing to help children and young adults in building their Yugioh or Pokemon decks and are available to teach them a new game.

They are both dedicated in what they do.....

Thank you

Owner is a thief--plain and simple

by cheron1701 at Citysearch

I mailed Jose Magic cards several years ago based on his internet posted buylist. I had first contacted his in-store agent approving the sale. I then mailed the cards--his store received them, and they never paid for it. I live several states away so suing here doesn't make sense, but he absolutely ripped me off for several hundred dollars worth of cards. He mentioned several times in emails that he would "settle up" but it never happened. I can't imagine he is a better man now, I assume he is still ripping folks off around the world.

Not the cleanest place in the world but...

by k1dn1nj4 at Citysearch

Reading all of your reviews made me a little confused. It is a small shop loaded with over priced merchandise and cheap trade in values, but there is a value to it.

The first time I went to this store, Jose (the owner you all claim isn't anywhere to be found) was out in the front and talking to us by the way, was to buy a box of magic cards with a friend so we could run a few at home drafts and they were out. Figures, they wouldn't have what we were looking for. We ended up just having Jose order one for us (we didn't have cards at the time so we couldn't do so online) and it was there within two days. We picked it up there and he told us to come back and tell him what we pulled.

We went back a few days later with our new and improved decks from the box he sold us and sat down and started to play. Within 2 rounds Jose was out and watching us play. By the end of that round he asked us if we pulled anything good. From that point on we went to The Gathering place every weekend with some form of game and stayed there hanging out with Jose until the wee hours of the morning. The shop hours may be listed, but in my experiences on weekends, those hours rarely exist.

It was a great place to go to get out of the house.

Jose also lives a few hours away from the shop, so he isn't there from time to time because of that.

• Pros: Fun game nights
• Cons: Small, Over Priced, Dirty
