Great shop. Sincere owner. Support this shop and people like this. He came back to the shop to open it for me. He was kind, excited, patient, and generous. I got to try on skates without pressure and plenty of experience & knowledge was shared with me regarding what I was looking for.

I'm from Australia and this guy helped me build a custom Razor SL that I always wanted. His pricing was the cheapest out of everyone else and shipping was very quick! I would definitely buy for him again.

The shop owner really made me feel welcomed and I was looking around town for a specific skate and he was the only one that had it.

Drove from Long Beach for nothing. It’s 5:15 as I type this. Door is locked and no one answered the bell when pushed or the number posted. Missed out on 2 adults and 3 teenagers roller blade purchase….

this place is so great -- i came in with a few questions about my current setup and a potential second pair of skates and walked out happily with a pair of roces nils janson storms. alan was so friendly and helpful and let me try on 5 pairs of skates before i finally found the pair for me. i highly recommend trying on aggressive skates in person especially as a woman because the foot widths are radically different, even within the same brand.

Getting back into rollerblading but its been a hot minute. The owner was super chill and knew exactly what I needed. He knows his stuff but has a humble vibe. Highly recommend ?

Beautiful selection of skates and about everything else you could ask for! Alan, a certified skating teacher, is a joy to talk to, and very informative as well. Highly recommend stopping by!

I was really happy with my experience shopping (from out of state) with Nickel and Dime Skate shop. I was looking for some Kaltik K Jr Skates and after looking around, saw that they had some in stock. Ordered them along with their black hoodie! Someone from the shop even texted me shortly after I placed the order to ask if I was ok with changing the color of the skates based on their inventory.

Bought online but the size was too small. Tried to exchange but they ghosted me. Would NOT recommend buying online from here if there is any chance you need to exchange.

I didn’t catch the owner’s name but he was cool/chill and very helpful. I would say this place is for intermediate/pro level skaters. He’s trying to get rid of some roller-skates for $50 so get them quick!

I’ve been searching for a skate shop to tune up my rollerblades. I went to a few and found out that Nickel and Dime is the only one that deals with rollerblades, instead of rollerskates (like most skate shops).Alan is patient, kind, honest, and super personable. When I came with my blades to get looked at he didn’t mess around - told me exactly what to do.As long I’m in Southern California, I will take my blades to Alan!

I am completely brand new to skating and was looking for a local shop in LA so I can get advice and try on a couple different skates, and coming up completely dry within a 2-hour drive, until I found Nickle and Dime. Alan was super helpful and supporting and got me going in no time!

We stopped by this shop on the way out of LA and did not regret it at all. They have really creative designs for shirts, hoodies, and hats at very reasonable prices. The owners were super friendly and chatted with us as they helped look for our sizes. In my opinion this store was a much better experience than going along Melrose and Fairfax. Stop by if you can. You won’t regret it!

Great place all around. Had a few problems with my skates and they were fixed straight away ?? The clothes and art in there are next level too, and the owner was super chill. Loved it, and I’ll be coming here all the way from Culver City every time I need something without even a second thought. Thank you ??

One of the few stores that sells high-end inline skates in person in LA. It was a blessing to be able to try skates on and feel comfortable before dropping all that money on a pair. Staff was knowledgeable, available, and extremely friendly. 10/10 buying all my skate gear here.
