“This place is heaven to all aviation enthusiasts that like to collect model airplanes! This small shop has tons of aircraft from both commercial and military! I got around 30 Daron airplanes and the guy checking me out gave us a discount and a free safety manual! If you are in the Chicago area and like aviation I would recommend this place to you!”
“Visited here yesterday. Il be honest, the 1st time going to 40k store, was a bit intimidated as its such a vast and dedicated fan base. Mikey I believe was his name, greeted me and made me feel welcomed with the very first step. I had already gotten into 40k about a month ago, reading and painting, but he elevated and gave me so much advice that has already helped me out with painting. I live in Addison, so Grognard is still where il usually go, but this Warhammer store, its so worth the drive, and it will be worth it to visit here again.
Mikey if you read this, your advice on the perfect gold for my Sanguinius guards worked out perfectly. Thank you!”
“Fantastic fun place spent time enjoying all the figures that they have for sale. Love the variety. Staff is friendly and amazingly informed. even know the local area for great food. Great gaming area also”
“This has been my longtime favorite LCS, but Marc went above and beyond recently when he helped organize a week of educational programming for high school students, including a loan of some Roman coins for the week. I am very thankful for his help and will be a customer for life. You should be too, go visit this awesome shop!!”
“Knights Edge is phenomenal! Not only are there many stellar pieces to look at, but Norman and Miriam go above and beyond by making this store an immersive experience. They were also very kind and helpful and answered all our questions (since we were first time purchasers).Again, I highly highly highly recommend this store, especially if you want to buy unique products/gifts and have fun while doing it!”
“A big shout out to Bill from Lombard Hobbies. He converted my DC Atlas Trainman® Plus NRE Genset II Locomotive to DCC. Awesome shop with awesome people. Thank you once again Bill for your help.”
“Absolutely love this shop! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, everything is beautifully organized and fairly easy to reach and see. I appreciated that they paid attention to what I was getting so they could direct me on where to find similar types of thread. I'm still learning a lot, and I learn something new every time I go!”
“A little gem hidden off the main roads.This place is a lovely little hobby shop, but there are some challenges. It once was a storefront in Evanston, but since moving to its current location, I can see how it could be missed if you are not looking for it. So no sidewalk traffic. BUT for those of us who know it's there, we get all the goodies to ourselves. I do feel that some things don't get restocked because there's so much product in one space, and it may appear that they're trying to sell off all the things they already have, BUT there are things here you won't find at other stores, especially if you are into miniatures and dollhouses.Luckily I don't live far, so I try to swing by everytime I need something. The hours are a bit weird for those of us who work all day, but that's not a deal breaker. Nice staff, quality stuff. Worth the trip, just keep in mind you'll buy stuff you didn't even know you needed or wanted. I rarely leave without spending at least $75. Go visit- looking at all the things is an activity alone.I can't wait to have a daughter someday so I can build a custom dollhouse.”
“I have been wanting to visit one of the Goat stores for some time now. They have a good selection of games, it's just hard to find something I want when I already have over 300 games but the store attendant was very patient with me as I vacillated whether to buy anything or not. I didn't ask her name, unfortunately, and had several conversations with her in the meantime. She's a good salesperson, though, she convinced me to buy Marvel Zombies which I never really wanted in my collection but hearing her description made me change my mind...and besides, I had to buy something for fear of her thinking I was some sort of creep loitering around. ?”
“Excellent selection of beer and wine making equipment and supplies. Kyle is very knowledgeable and helpful with getting started, as well as advice on modifying recipes. Have yet to attend one of their brewing events, but the home brewer's day event was very fun and filled with welcoming people.
My go-to place for brewing supplies. Plenty of parking and just off St. Charles Rd makes it easy to get to as well.”
“This is a great spot if you are interested in coin collecting. We had coins to sell and Lucas helped us both times we were in the store. He is very knowledgeable, helpful, friendly and kind. He shares information and offers fair prices. We will be back.”
“This store is magical and amazingt My mother's Annie Wynn Mickens had this beautiful 1950 Baby Doll that loved.
Her name is Baby Annie. My mother love love her so much.I took Baby Annie today to get her hair service. And I pick up some jewelry and some beautiful outfits to add to her collection. My mom went home to be with Lord so I will take good care of Baby Annie!!”
“I recently had the pleasure of selling my coin collection at Arlington Coin, and the experience exceeded my expectations. From the moment I walked in, the staff's professionalism was evident.The owner took the time to thoroughly assess every coin in my collection, demonstrating a genuine passion and knowledge for numismatics. His meticulous approach instilled confidence, and I felt reassured that my collection was in capable hands.What sets Arlington Coin apart is not just their expertise but also their commitment to fair dealing. The offered price for my collection reflected a careful evaluation of each coin's rarity and condition. I appreciated the transparency in the process, making the transaction both smooth and satisfying.Arlington Coin is a trustworthy establishment that values its customers and their collections. If you're considering selling or buying coins, I highly recommend giving them a visit. The blend of expertise, fairness, and courteous service makes Arlington Coin a standout choice in the numismatic community.”
“First time in the Chicago area and long time collector of Charlie Bears and Jellycat. Upon a recommendation from a friend, I headed to Fairy Tales Inc. What a beautiful shop. Wonderful selection and the store associates are kind, helpful and patient. Very highly recommend checking this quaint store in Lombard.”
“Excellent selection of trains, accessories, track, and even toys for the kids. Train service and support was excellent and the guys are helpful and knowledgeable all around. I am a kid again. Thank you. Ceiling layout is complete, just 1 more tweak remains.”
“This place is awesome! It is the best hidden secret of a bead store in Chicago for gems and other beads. Truly gorgeous products (all kinds of real gemstones that I wanted to buy them all) and Anna and Diana are lovely people who are so helpful and kind. Glad to support this woman owned business. Love love love their new space and look forward to going back! This special shop should not be missed!”
“Great service, always available and responsive and the best part is the price. Before dealing with them I went to two other coin shops in the area and was disappointed. After my successful coin sale with Elmhurst Coins I am bringing all my future business here.”
“Incredible shop, something for every level collector. You will not leave empty handed. The clerk it knowledgeable and willing to advise if needed. If your looking for something extremely specific I would call first a few days before so he can set it aside, at times they are busy. And cannot hunt the very rare and obscure. None the less I love the shop but no longer live in the state.”
“This was a great end to a tragic loss my husband passed a few months ago and he had gold coins I thought weren't worth very much well I was mistaken to my surprise”
“Been all over the Chicagoland area in and out of sports cards/memorabilia shops throughout the years. I'll say Elite Cards is top of the line. When I say "top of the line", I mean both Ronnie & Gary buy-sell-trade with integrity. Wealth of knowledge in the industry. It's not just about making a "sale" with these guys, they're in it because they love what they do! A lot of shops I've been too, I've always picked up on the used car salesman vibe but not here. Straight shooters, no sugar coating, and or over inflating value on products they have. Simply tell them what you're trying to accomplish and they'll help you get there!Thanks guys!”
“Just had the best birthday party for my 5yo, we chose the tie-dye theme package and all the kids had a blast! Staffs were super helpful and the backdrop/photo op was so thoughtful, will definitely come back for more!”
“Great guys there that know a lot, especially Gary. My trucks servo broke the 1st day and I brought it back in and Gary installed a new servo that was better quality. Works awesome now!”

“We went to Archie's to see if they were interested in a variety of items we wanted to sell. The entire experience was excellent and conducted with clarity, great communication, and professionalism. Their offers were fair, and they explained why certain things were not valued as we may have expected. We felt very comfortable there and recommend it others looking for their services.”
“I love this store. It's a true shame it's not larger. They really need a bigger selection but simply don't have the room. But they have no problem special ordering whatever you want.”
“Grant is awesome! There are tons of comics and he knew exactly what boxes to look for when you ask him what you are looking for. Be prepared to stay for more than an hour and bring your money. It's worth the trip!”
“I stopped in Michael's this evening to get some supplies for a Halloween party. The woman who helped me at the register was the one of the KINDEST HUMANBEINGS I HAVE MET. She had a goofy sense of humor, was incredibly helpful, and truly MADE MY DAY. I hope she reads this, thank you for being you, I hope the Boston Orioles have fantastic season next year!”

“So I stop off here the other day after the gym and ask if Michael's working. They said after an overly long and awkward pause, he's... off today.... The mystery continues”

“One of the best things about having a hobby is going into a hobby shop and finding that the people working there are even bigger fans than you. They have a great selection of model railroad equipment and much more. Everyone I've spoken to is beyond friendly and helpful. Special thanks to Lyle and Geroge (hope I spelled your names correctly) for really taking their time and providing great customer service.”
