The local Heroclix group recently moved our weekly meetups to Cosmic when they resumed, and theyre great hosts. Its a welcoming store with plenty of space for gaming, and quite a selection of cards and games. Well recommended!

Super awesome game store! Staff is knowledgeable, totally willing to help you learn and really want to help you find what you are looking for. Prices have been less or comparable for everything we wanted. We bought video games and Magic the Gathering stuff. We will be frequently visiting!

Wife and I have been regulars at Cosmic for a few years now. It started with Magic but we’ve become enamored with all kinds of tabletop and role-playing. We’ve never been pressured to buy anything (but I suppose that’s never stopped us). Great loyalty system (and military discount, too). Pete is unbelievably knowledgeable on the range of games and TCG that they provide. Will be coming to Cosmic for a long time.

I’ve been up here for nearly a year now and I’m mad I didn’t find this place sooner. I typically purchase any trading cards from online stores or break shop groups I’m in. My son has recently shown interest and I wanted to take him to a physical location for his first couple pack of cards.First impressions of this store are:•It’s extremely clean - Tidy.•Amazing assortment of anything retro video gaming you’d need. Games and hardware.•Big assortment of trading card games. I was mainly there for Pokémon. There were options for booster pack boxes, single packs, and single cards.•One of the employees even overheard my son talk about a Pokemon he likes and gave him an item with the Pokemon on it.It’ll be hard for any other store or retailer to top a kindness like that.The staff were also friendly and helpful. Coming back soon.

This has been my go to LGS for over a year now, we make the 40 minute travel and it is always worth it! I can always find everything I need for my MTG obsession and recently getting into table top RPGs, their inventory never disappoints! I recently celebrated my birthday in the store playing some games and the staff and regular customers helped made me feel celebrated :) special shout out to Pete for always being so helpful and always a good conversation when getting into games and hobbies! Everyone there has been so nice and honestly we always have a good time when we can visit.

Wonderful shop! One of the employees helped me build my magic decks up and taught me the basics of magic, and the selection of magic cards is amazing! The community is friendly and shop has plenty to offer!

They laughed behind my back making fun of me told me that it’s gonna be cheaper buying online, that’s fine I’ll buy online then, just trying to help a local business but I wouldn’t go here with your finds, they are very rude to customers in particular the older gentleman with the glasses I think he’s the owner also. It’s a shame how people can be so cruel.

7/5 one of my favorite places to play Magic: the Gathering. Huge selection of singles, packs, and accessories. Also the only game store I know of to offer a military discount! They also do retro games, Pokémon, dungeons & dragons and more. Go check out their giant store and play area!

The staff and selection are awesome here, we went in for the first time last week and were so impressed with the store and the organization of everything. The staff was friendly and helped us find exactly what we were looking for. Awesome selection of older platform games and other new/table game stuff as well. Will for sure be a long time shopper here

Review №13

Excellent selection of just about anything that would be considered a game. Retro consoles, Mtg, Pokémon, D&D, miniatures, Tabletop, the list is extensive. They have a few tables in the store for gaming and I believe they have regular game sessions. I went there to sell a couple old magic cards. They cashed me out at a fare price. I walked out happy about the transaction. Dont go there expecting them to give you all their profit. The three guys that were working were personable and funny!

Inspect games before buying. What was listed as complete on the website was in a different case, and the cover slip is disgusting; Which was impossible to see with the way they display games.I was told over the phone I could get a refund, but after driving down I was told no refunds; Which is pretty shady, most evey other game store will take returns.Also the owner is a very unfriendly. Youll recognize him if you go here; hes the guy with a constant angry look.

I came in with some mint condition jungle holos such as vaporeon & Lapras atleast psa 9s as well as a poliwrath E . An about 20 other ex and vmax cards. As well as kyogre Ex . Well I was watching him calculate an I had purposely put 2 cards in each sleeve an I watched the guy with my own two eyes put cards at the bottom of the pile non counted for. Also turned in 2 mists ya tentacruels all mint condition an they only gave me $25? I’ve had a 1/3 of this at the manor shop in lynden an even got more then this and I got ripped off there. The worker tried saying he wouldn’t make anything off the cards yet one of those cards alone is almost $100. Be careful they will scam you an refuse a receipt . All cards should be accounted for an I was scammed sadly by the same guy everytime

After obtaining a Nintendo 64 console I was excited to start looking for retro games to play on it. After visiting other used game stores, I became disappointed with the lack of titles. Upon getting recommended Cosmic, we went to check it out, and were immensely pleased.Cosmic was nicely laid out, and FILLED with games, consoles, accessories, and more without feeling claustrophobic, like other stores. There’s also plenty for tabletop/card game players to look through as well.I was so happy to see all the N64 games/accessories, as well as finally locating a DDR mat for the system I was playing on. 🤩I had to hold back the urge to not spend my savings at Cosmic, they had almost everything I was looking for that day, and much more. I look forward to stopping in again, perhaps with some trade-ins, too. 😉Great store & AWESOME staff!

We found this place a few months back. The guys in there treat us and the kids so great every time we go in. Our son gets treated to Pokémon and they dont mind the loudness. The selection is awesome. All the systems and games. The people are great. Cant say enough good things.

Really great customer service, I went there looking for a MTG deck, and the guy at the counter was very helpful. I was at Dark Tower before that and I was quickly looking, wasnt there that long but the counter guy just kinda looked at me and didnt say anything. I went to Cosmic Games was quickly looking and the guy behind the counter asked me if I needed any help. Great customer service. If I ever need something that they might have Id definitely go again.

Greta service, great products and much better prices and attention to detail than dark tower. The guys here actually pay attention to cards they are buying and selling, where as dark tower will sell you fakes at a much higher price. Support your local game shop, support cosmic games. The staff here are always awesome and helpful.

Review №40

It’s second hand so obviously you’re gonna pay almost double retail. What got me though with my experience with them, Is when I went to trade some cards, as I was walking out the door, they made the comment “ thanks for the money”. So they just had to let me know they were ripping me off. Also out of a dozen booster packs I got, I didn’t get a single hit. I know it’s up to chance, but it’s as they open ebt’s till they get a hit, then sell the rest.

I just had the best customer service experience! I went in to find D&D figures for my nephew and admitted right away that I knew absolutely nothing about the game. The man in the store took so much time explaining, guiding and helping me decide- all without being dismissive or condescending about my lack of knowledge. He was wonderful, and has given a little boy a very happy Christmas!

The staff has always treated me fairly. I have never had any problems with any of the people who play their either. Over all the Mtg judges are clear and concise making sure games don’t stagnate due to ruling confusion, and they have a sense of humor they aptly described as akin to that of those two old men from the Muppets.

Great game store. Had 99% of the cards I was looking for. Very organized and efficient and pulling cards. Very enjoyable and friendly people working there, answering questions and are happy to talk. Aside from magic they have a great collection of board games and other various nerd items. Definitely worth the drive from Silverdale.

Pretty good selection of retro games! The store isnt super well laid out, seems like its mostly used for magic the gathering tournaments which I dont play so felt a bit awkward going inside. But if you like magic for sure check it out! They did have an N64 I was very tempted by haha.

Review №57

Adam is the man. He has been running video game stores for over 8 years now, and before that, had the sickest collection of classic games at the flea market.The one thing his store delivers on above else is the product. I try looking for exotic classic games and consoles at other stores and find more to buy here in one visit than a year in a competitive game storeI was blown away by the selection and hope he can continue to stock the gems in the next coming years.

Review №58

Broken products! Rude employees! Great selection though!The place has a confusing layout, but a wide selection. I was able to find many newer and older video games as well as consoles. I asked the employee if I could buy an original Xbox, and when he retrieved it he gave me a bunch of unnecessary warnings about keeping a sticker on if I wanted to return it, and said them all in an extremely rude tone. It seemed as though he thought I was trying to cheat them on a deal when all I wanted to do was buy an Xbox for my girlfriend and I. Not only that! When I arrived back home the Disk Tray didnt even work! Isnt that one of the most basic things you check before you buy a console? I luckily was able to find a fix online, since I dont want to go back in.

My experience with Cosmic Comics goes back a while, for various needs here and there, but its only been in the last year that Ive started to really go there often. The staff are great and knowledgeable, always willing to recommend a title or help you find one related to other comics youve enjoyed. I never read comics when I was younger and now Ive got a few subscriptions with the store that makes it incredibly easy to get new issues of series that I really enjoy.I also participate in weekly Heroclix games and the environment is always great and tons of fun. Id recommend the shop to anyone.

Review №68

This is a legit comic book shop! Cosmic Comics has an EXCELLENT variety of back-issues in addition to newer stuff. Ive worked closely with Pete and T.J. (the owner whos owned the business for YEARS) to find obscure and hard-to-find comics which a comic junkie like me could only HOPE to find at comic book conventions. The staff is friendly, professional and knowledgeable. You wont be disappointed.

Jo
Review №69

They should really consider changing their name to Cosmic Gaming, as comics are generally treated as kind of an afterthought. Their selection of new issues is decent, but not great, and you arent even able to easily browse their back issues. The owner is nice and seems to generally know what hes talking about, but some of the other staff members are pretty lacking in both customer service skills and comics knowledge.

Review №71

I called ahead and asked if they had a 3.8 mm nut wrench and was told they have bits (which was fine). When I went in to purchase the bit, it took a good 10 minutes or more for the clerk to look for the bit. When he couldnt find it, the other clerk suggested I purchase his personal set which is fine, just not what I expected. They said they will order more since they didnt actually have it in stock (like they said they did when I called). I really appreciate having this store in town and the fact that when the first clerk couldnt find the bits, the second clerk was willing to part with his. Im initially leaving this review with 3 stars because of my less than stellar experience but I will be back to Cosmic Games and will hopefully have a better experience in the future; at which point I will update my review.EDIT: Added a star because I received a response from the clerk that helped. Customer Service is important and I can see theyre working on it. I look forward to my next visit to Cosmic Games.

Review №90

Ive been to multiple comic book stores. Some felt a little too immersed into comics in an appealing way, others felt too corporate, and then there was one that was just plain messy.Cosmic Comics is none of those places. The store is clean (although older-looking), the atmosphere feels more like a fun place rather than a comic book retail store, and the staff are always willing to help and make reading suggestions. While sometimes I dont find what Im looking for there, the staffs kind and willing attitudes more than make up for it. I will personally come here for all of my in-store purchases, and Im very proud to say that this is MY comic book store to go to! It feels like a second home!
