The Nerd Store

I have to say, as a person who grew up in Greeley, and who is into nerdy things, The Nerd Store has really brought the nerd culture into this city in a good way. Every time I have been in there, from when it opened until now, the selection has been great. It is all organized in a sensible order and it is all easy to find. I love the space for games and gathering and I like that the store really invites people of all demographics to enjoy gathering together and playing games. I also am very impressed with the way The Nerd Store has put some focus on encouraging children to get into comic books, cards, games, social interaction and being proud to enjoy such things. I also must commend the fact that they bag and board your comic books for you to help you on collecting those too! A great addition to a revamped downtown Greeley and a must visit!

Like the rating says when you select the number of stars — Meh. I’ve experienced better. The back-​log for comics is lacking and still looks like it’s under construction. The comics up front just seem to be one big mess. It was fine for what I needed — something to do one night — but I’m not freaking out to go back any time soon.

The best gaming and comic book shop in Greeley, but I’m a little biased. Looking at it objectively (which is a little hard as an employee) all I can say that doesn’t sound like me stroking my ego is that we have an extensive selection of board games, collectible and living card games, paintable miniatures, Heroclix, single issue comics, and collected trades.
Stop on in and see if we have your fandom in stock, and if we don’t we will do our best to special order it for you.

A great place to meet up with friends in downtown Greeley. Plenty of space in the back to play a game you brought (or bought!). I probably would give this place 5 stars if I were really into comics, and sci-​fi merchandise at present, but they’re more my friends’ passions than my own. My friends say their selection is good, and prices as well. And you can’t beat the name for accuracy and humor — The Nerd Store!

The Nerd Store deserves a nice welcome. As you pass by don’t be fooled by the clothes in one of the storefront windows. Games, comics, manga seem to be the central focus. The clothing is incidental. The Nerd Store sponsors game nights. There are many tables suitable for small games, but when I visited there I saw no large tables for miniatures; perhaps that will come later. It was nice to see some uncommon games among the more usual ones, and some unexpected magazines among the more familiar ones. As an addition to our way-​downtown, as a store providing merchandise and activities not offered by any other store in the immediate vicinity, as a center and stimulus for social gatherings and live interaction (as opposed to solitary videogames), I see the Nerd Store as a possible positive fun addition to our community. An invitation to meet Greeley’s local comic artist Cody Kuehl was part of The Nerd Store’s grand opening. My reason for rating this business only three stars is that the inventory for a start-​up seeking to attract customers and players is way too small, advertising and marketing is weak, and the store front windows are being used very ineffectively. I sincerely hope that the next couple of months will warrant a glowing update. Time, marketing, sales, inventory, activity schedules, and community awareness will tell.
Nov. 28, 2013. Okay, there are plenty of game items in the windows now, a better representation of what is available inside.
April 7, 2015. The Nerd Store now offers a weekly meeting for fans who are into painting minifigs. (Friday 3pm to 9pm). They are also expanding their selection of miniature related items.
