The Nerd Store

The store carried some interesting products — show-​related card packs that I didn’t even know existed, some really nice quality figurines, and the staff was very nice. The tower of pop figurines was pretty neat to look at.
The prices though seemed too steep. A small random-​pack figurine at their store that would have been $ 8-​$ 12 anywhere else was $ 20 there. I compared the prices of the figurines there to ones I’ve seen at other stores and online and basically everything was upped $ 20 in price. A simple card pack for a tv show was $ 5, which would normally be $ 2-​$ 3. I wouldn’t consider buying anything from this store, but it’s nice to stop by and look around if you’re in the area.

I absolutely love this place! They have so many comics, and for great prices! Their other merchandise is worth the money too! I came here in search of a go-​to comic book store near where I live — took the bus from Salt Lake City, pretty much a straight shot down redwood road. And I discovered that this was a great store, in a convenient location! The staff are very knowledgeable, friendly, and will greet and assist you a thousand times over to make sure that you are finding what you are looking for. I ended up walking out with 4 great new comics to start out my living in Salt Lake City. Will definitely be coming back for those new releases! They just need a website!

Two stars because the fellow at the counter was nice. Skip this unless you want new comics only, or one of the 5 silver age on the wall.
A G+ copy of the 1^st Punisher is not a $ 900 comic. Please review your prices Nerd Store.
Seedy location. It’s inside one of those malls that is run down and has the gates halfway down so you don’t know if the stores are open or closed.
Edit/​Response: thank you for the response and I wish you well in your future endeavors.
First, I’d recommend reviewing your current back issue’s in the boxes. A few that I might have purchased were ruined from a lack of bag or board. Uncanny 316, Deathmate Black, etc. were in pretty rough shape, which is totally unacceptable in anything published since 1980.
Second, It would take about a day to organize all 5 boxes in alphabetical order or by publisher, alphabetically, and numerically. Based on another review, it seems like they’ve been like that for a while.
Third, get those silver age books out of the frames. People may not realize they are comics and not mini-​posters.
I’ve seen more valuable comics displayed in a variety of ways. Their own display case near the counter tends to work well, and even prominent sign (s) around the store that direct the customer to your high-​end books. You can also make a small binder with the high end comics listed, their grade, and their prices if you don’t want them displayed, as long as it’s obvious to customers that they are available. Watch the lighting if you’re going to keep them on a wall.
I’ve also seen plexiglass placed over long boxes of top end books with finger holes cut out so that customers can flip through without damaging anything.
It wouldn’t be anything for someone to walk in on a Tuesday morning, reach up, and take your Giant Size X-​Men #1 while the single employee is in the back. I’m 5’10″ and could easily reach them, So watch out. I talked with a fellow at another store that stopped selling comics due to theft!
But hey, what do I know?

Really helpful service, and very friendly. They could use some new carpet, it is very gross, maybe they need to replace with linoleum or tile. But they have some great stuff and great staff!

On vacation came upon this place in an otherwise sad little mall. Staff were very friendly, giving us the info on local cosplay culture and conventions. My only hope is that they get a larger variety of merchandise

Great selection with a friendly knowledgeable staff. Will go back again soon!
