“Horrible. I really hate this store. There are NEVER enough cashiers working. It takes another cashier almost 15 minutes to come assist ,meanwhile the line is getting longer and longer. I will never return to the one on City Ave.”

“I love Michael's because of the great deals and products they carry. However I like this location because of the people that work here and the convenience of the area. The workers in here are friendly and quite knowledgeable about where things are located in the store and on certain topics too. That's a big thing for me! If you do crafting or like to make things once in a while this is one of the best places to go outside of a hobby shop!”

“I love this store! They have an incredible selection of art supplies and everyone that works there is friendly and knowledgeable. The only downside is that I want to buy everything in the store.”

“"Mostly Books" is an understatement. "More books than you can shake a stick at" is a more fitting description. A really special place that I'm glad we popped into.”

“I love this place. You can’t really buy singles here bc their pricing is wonky but the store is nice, the staff is top notch, and I’ve never had an issue with a player here. And most importantly this is a great place for my wife to play and feel welcome which has more value than I can express in this limited space. The store has some areas it could improve but in the areas that matter most it is exceptional.”

“My family and I stopped by while walking through Center City. Brian O. was very helpful. He took lots of time to answer our questions and show us some coins. It was a great experience. I highly recommend Stack's Bowers if you are a numismatist in the Philly area.”

“I'm actually not much of a board game player or TTRPGer myself but I still love this place. I pick up a new game and/or shiny trinket every now and then but even when I'm not in the market for anything, there's always enough interesting stuff to keep me busy window-shopping while my friends do the real shopping. The atmosphere over at 7th Dimension is great. The people there are friendly and despite my social anxiety's best efforts, I don't get that "You don't belong here. Why are you here?" feeling that I tend to get in most gaming stores.”

“Large store with most of what we were looking for. Only gripe about this place is how difficult it is to find somebody to help. Also, the columns to hold the ceiling up are in the middle of some aisle entries making it difficult to navigate at times.”

“I love this store!!!! When I come it’s never crowded and the staff doesn’t mind helping. I’ve been there at least 20 different times and it’s only once that they didn’t have what I was looking for. Great place.”

“Great place for miniatures for your D&D type game. The owner will paint them for you if you want as well. He has some talent. I normally don't consider miniatures, but one really "called out to me" that looked like my D&D character "Donnie Darko" after playing with it with D&D there ages ago. I ended up not getting it unfortunately because I would've had to buy 4 miniatures because they came in a series pack, and I didn't want the other three. So, I just stuck with buying snacks there. But it is a great place to look for well crafted figurines and such.”

“I'm sorry for the people who've had negative experiences here with employees. The site itself if pretty clean but a little cramped. I have noticed throughout the years the game spaces have shrunk. There are so many more consoles available now a days that it leaves less room for games. I used to have to look at 2 sections of walls for games. Now it's down to one. And it seems new and used games are now combined. Kind of crazy to think about. Anyway I digress. This GameStop site came in clutch for me. After Target's massive failure for me to obtain a PS5 console and automatic cancellation of my order 8 times in a row (yes it's literal) I went online to GameStop and found limited availability of the console at this location. I did try to call but couldn't reach anyone. But I may have been calling off store hours to be honest. I was specifically looking for the GOW bundle. Well, this was one of the few locations left with a good amount of stock. I think people forget this store is here since it can blend in with the rest of the stores. I went ahead and placed my order online and received my pickup notice by that night. I'm sure it saved me the fact I got pro membership since the sale was only for pro members. Proud to confirm I picked up my order and it is in fact a very real feeling and smelling PS5. Yes, I smelled it. Don't judge me lol. Thank you guys for everything. I was surprised they have a system in place to track the stock. I received a receipt with a sticker label they put on my receipt and on a tracking form they have at the desk. It matches the specific console to the buyer so it ensures your console order isn't stolen. At least that's where my mind went. To ensure your order is safe and not stolen by employees it tracks order pickup and the correct amount of in stock. Pretty cool if I say so myself. At least now I can game this Christmas season and not have to wait a long time for more production. Now to save up for the PSVR2 and right back to this site for my preorder.”

“Good experience today. I had an unexpected experience about a week ago. Placed an order at my nearby location, and it was sent to another location. I was told this happens sometimes when the store does not have all of your items.Other than this, my experiences are always good.”
