This is easily the worst toy store in the Dayton area, not sure how they have remained open this long. Their prices are actually insane to the point where I think they just make stuff up. They have a solid comic selection but I would be surprised if they ever sell a single one. I didn't find a single issue under $4-5. Their boxes are full of dollar bin issues priced 5x their going price. Imagine flipping through rows of West Coast Avengers all mid grade for $5 a piece. Their organization is atrocious as well. You'll find the same figure loose in 3 different places in the store with 3 different prices and then a sealed one cheaper than the loose ones. They have a cool deal of buy 2 Marvel legends get 1 free but that doesn't help when every figure is priced 3x higher than they are on Ebay. Was told graphic novels were half off cover price and brought 2 up to the counter that were marked $4.95 a piece and guy said. "How's $8 sound?". Sounds like that's not half off. Have overheard them being incredibly rude to people wanting to sell things after they leave which is crazy inappropriate with customers in the store. They are super shady with these people too where they won't make an offer on anything until the person selling tells them how much they are hoping to get from it. At that point they either accept it if its lower than they were thinking or if its higher they make fun of the person afterwards for expecting too much money. There are other great toy stores in the area that deserve your business much more than this place. It very clearly needs new ownership. They have more inventory than they have room to display it so there are just mountains of stuff everywhere making it crazy hard to look at anything. They seem open to negotiating prices but it feels bad taking 5 figures to the counter and saying "Hey these are all less than $10 online and you guys have $20-25 on all of them. Saw one figure they had in their glass case for $50 and then found it again laying in a
