First store is a hole in the wall. As far as I can tell, they are entirely supported by a small circle of faggots who go there exclusively to play MtG. Only honest review clearly states that the place is dirty and poorly lit, the rest are all clearly padding the score so the store doesn't look bad.. But it IS bad.. Because it doesn't even have a fucking sign and it is poorly lit and disorganized and dirty and the employees are retards.
Second one is a mall store that's actually got a pretty good selection of board games, but they've got jack shit in the way of minis, wargaming, or card games that aren't MtG or RPGs that aren't D&D 5e. The other half of their store is kitschy crap and souvenirs that I cannot fathom why they bother to keep around. The store has a bit of a local legacy so most people seem to like it for that reason. The place is clean and well-lit, though, and the employees don't sit around all day with their shoes off eating doritos while they sort through piles of MtG cards like the previous store. Only negative review is some twit complaining about not getting a refund for some toy they bought.
Third is a pretty distant store from me, but they run lots of events that aren't just WotC dicksucking like the last two, so it's worth visiting sometimes. They also do great garage sale events where you can score board games for amazing prices. Great looking store, employees are cool guys, everything is neat and organized. Selection can be a little lacking for more obscure stuff. Reputation and reviews are well deserved.
