8101 NE Parkway Dr # C5, Vancouver“The owners of the backyard bird shop are true animal lovers. All their statues and birdbaths come packed in large crates stuff with woodwool. A straw looking material of wood straps balled up.I work for the Oregon Zoo, and they donate all this woodwool packing to our zoo for our animals to use as bedding and enrichment play.When visiting the zoo, look for this in many of the enclosures.Our primates, polar bears, black bear cubs, tigers, and lions really love it, and thank you”
“Original review 2019-
Sweet little shop, they have an awesome selection of fabrics and an amazing clearance section!
Revisit 9/2024- still an awesome quilt shop!”
“MTG fan since 99’. When I walk in for tcg product it’s marked at msrp not marked up for overhead gain. Sure may not be fancy but worth the time. CCGHouse is 60 seconds away from this location and you’d pay hella mark up; for instance you guys sold bloomburrow squirreled away deck for $39.99 when CCGHouse sold same exact product for $99.99. I’ll support my hobby shopping with you guys first, but would be cool if you guys ever got the space/interest in organized play. Also you guys a lot of the time have single cards that are sold out at other stores so that’s a plus.”
“Welcoming, knowledgeable staff who are more than willing to discuss products such as different MTG decks or combinations. Daily events, recurring on a weekly basis, mean there's something for everyone!”
“I always have a great experience with NW Plaza Coin Buyers. I've visited three times, and it is always a great experience. You can set up an appointment or go to the shop. I felt safe knowing the owner had the doors locked while he worked on my project.The owner is always a delightful and knowledgeable man. He evaluates coins with speed, precision and enthusiasm. With each set of coins, he evaluated them for quality, and told me a price, which I then agreed to. Additionally, he kept a runing tally on an Excel spreadsheet while he was working. I could tell he enjoyed his work.I would definitely do business with NW Plaza Coin Buyers again. Thank you!”
“Took my 8yr daughter here to learn how to play Pokemon. I couldn’t be more grateful to have had Professer Slowbro teach her! He was very patient (with both of us) and extremely helpful! She learned a lot and can’t wait to play on her own!”
“It was so large that it's almost overwhelming. The only thing that I would have liked was direct access to the mall, you must leave the store in order to go to the mall”

15644 NE Fourth Plain Blvd, Vancouver“This is the best Hobby Shop around, hands down. I drive up from Salem just to shop with Columbia Sports Cards. They have the best prices, with free shipping if I can’t make it up in person.I’ve pulled some incredible cards out of the Hobby Boxes over the past year or so, including a case hit in this year’s 2024 Topps Heritage (Purple Refractors).The employees are always super helpful and very knowledgeable.Again, I will drive through awful Portland traffic and dodge hobo’s along 205, just to buy from this local shop.Go Beavs ”
“Went in to get a new glass for a frame . The manager of the framing dept.was very helpful and extremely friendly.. if I ever need more framing I will definitely go there!”
“I went in and got $100+ headset for $30 (refurbished) then I got 4 Xbox games for $20 bucks (used). One of the games did not work so they traded me without any hastle”
“Just went in to check if they had an item in stock. They didn't have it at this location but the guy at the counter looked it up and told me exactly which stores had it and in what quantities, then printed that information for me! Super helpful & nice, great customer service!!”
“Today I went to this paricular GameStop and traded in my old consoles including over a dozen PS4 games. Eva, the store employee, was helpful and she was able to find the best deals for me so that I could upgrade to a new Xbox. The process took over an hour but she was patient and answered all of my questions. I want to highlight her interaction today as being some of the best customer service I have had in awhile and she should be recognized for her work.”
“Great experience. Nice people. They have great prices on there gundam model kits. Some better then Amazon and definitely better prices compared to the Anime shop ( I will not name the shop)at the mall across the street. I will most definitely be back for more.”
“Super friendly game shop where the employees not only want to be there but actually want to answer your questions and assist you in finding what you're looking for. They've got an amazing selection from new to used, and they're used stuff is priced to move, not to sit on their shelves and collect dust. They got everything from Warhammer 40K all the way down to fancy decks of cards for solitaire. If you need a new figure to round out your army or some new dice that aren't going to keep rolling bad for you, this is definitely a place to come and to start your shopping at.Witnessed a customer point out that figures they were selling didn't have their bases with them and where other shops would have come up with some excuse and then made you pay separately for them they apologized went into the back grabbed what was needed and finished ringing them up.The only concern are their customers aren't as friendly as the employees. One young man kept yelling at people who would stop and take a look at his army as he was setting up telling people not to get so close and not to linger. It's also kind of cramped in there, so be ready to smell all the grossness on the unwashed masses that are slowly coming out of their parents' basement to come into the public for a few hours.Don't hold their customers against them this shop deserves your business way more than GameWorks or most game shops in the Portland area.”
