“I just purchased 2 sets of dice and an MTG single and I am honestly blown away. I just checked my email and saw that the emailed receipt included pictures of the exact dice I bought and the single. I'm sure you were able to download and adapt some sort of repository of mtg cards (which alone is going the extra mile) but for the dice I imagine that you had to photograph and log all of the different color variations!? The only Brick and mortar stores I can think of that email me a receipt with photos and hyperlinks is Best buy and Microcenter, which are billion dollar companies. If this is a huge company owned by some hedge fund please let me know, otherwise this has set the bar for all small brick and mortar stores in my book.”

“This place is really great! Highly recommended! Especially to those people who really love stuff for crafts. This place is the best! They have so many interesting things here, their selection is very large, and the whole place is really enjoyable. This spot is very clean, cozy, neat, organized, and bright. Everything here is great! Fantastic customer service! Their employees here are really nice, decent, and knowledgeable. They all know how to treat their customers so right. Also, they will help you to find the things you need. They are so accommodating. You can also check out so easily because they have many cashiers. Awesome service. This Michaels is very accessible, their location is very near and easy to find. You can go to their spot in just a few minutes from your area. Very convenient. The only reason why I gave them four stars is because their restrooms need some repair. But their place is still my preferred place to buy things for crafts and others. They are way better and cheaper than other stores around the place. Plus, this Michaels is also a great place to buy some decorations for Christmas and other special holidays. You can also order online and visit their website. They will bring your order to you quickly. Really wonderful spot! All of their items have really good quality. A really must-visit place for arts and crafts. I will definitely go back here again when I am nearby and I need some crafts again. Thank you for your awesome service guys! Also, thank you for giving us such an amazing experience. Will see you again soon! Keep it up! Well done!”

“I met the short guy with the glasses ? and I had a great time talking about Gundam’s and what my next build should be after building a HG and jumping into one of the most funnest kits I have build, the RG RX-93-V2 Hi-V GUNDAM. He was IMPRESSED that it was my second Gunpla build and that I had made that kind of jump… I was super undecided on which model to take home, Ben was nothing but cheerful and helpful with the whole process. Giving me space whenever he made suggestions, but also letting me know which models to stay away from, at least for now. Since I was undecided ?? on which one to take home, we flipped a coin ? Thanks to him and his KNOWLEDGE I took the Mobile Suit RX-93 V Gundam Ver.Ka and the Neo Zeon MSN-04 Mobile Suit Sazabi Ver.Ka - Yes, they’re both MG kits, I understand that I’m a beginner, but I love the challenge and all the advice he gave me, plus gave a part for my Hi-V Gundam so I could buy a platform and use that, instead of buying two of them to make one to support his weight.Anyways as a first time customer, this place me feel welcomed and appreciated the support from everyone.”
