If you just want to look around and possibly buy good luck. Everything is “if you touch it you buy it”. I would understand if you were being rough with some of these things and rowdy but to tell someone who is looking through comics that if they aren’t going to buy anything stop looking and read the signs. Are you kidding. Least inviting comic shop I’ve ever been to. Don’t go unless you are absolutely sure you are going to leave there spending money or the owner will follow you around and ask why you are even looking.
When I was on my way into another comic store, I was told about Chewmie's being the place I needed to go and boy it was true. Dan has a massisive collection and stock of GI Joe, Marvel, DC, Star Wars, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Transformers and so much more! Comics are a plenty here as well as posters and a few paintings. Dan gave a hometown/ VIP experience and I can't wait to go back! This is the BEST comic/ collectible store I have ever been to in my life. Thanks you!
The biggest scam artist. Nothing is organized or priced out so when you show interest in items he price checks them on the spot and sets price to highest listed price online, not even last sold. This guy had the audacity to mark all books in his boxes 40 dollars regardless of title or condition bc he was too lazy to look up the books and this was common for almost all of his items. Go here if you are ready to pay 300% or more over market value for your collectibles and listen to an annoying man with an attitude gloat about his thousands of comics you don’t have. Literally the worst collectible store this side of Florida.
Huge selection of TMNT and Transformers stuff. Lots of comics. Disorganized, owner hovers over you. He tells you how great stuff is, and a "great deal" with no mentions of price. We selected an old Action Comics Superman, no tag. He said, "you got ten bucks cash?" I said we only had credit, to which his reply was "well, it's $20 minimum." Just as we suspected, shopper beware.
Awesome place, almost everything you could imagine as a child growing up.
Tons of comics and toys.
And the inventory is unbelievable.
Most items are in pristine condition.
What an incredible store
The owner is friendly and knowledgeable.
The shop keeps favorite phrase is apparently “it’s more than you want to spend” or “more than you have” which is interesting considering he doesn’t know any potential customer’s financial situations AND charges 20% or more than eBay/online sellers for comparable figures. Totally unprofessional attitude.
Came today to check out Funko Pop doll - this place way over charges. I bought 2 just because I wanted em, but never going back. I asked the price for one and he quoted me 30. It sells sealed on eBay for 20 dollars less and it’s the case for most of what I looked at. Even with the shipping it’s 10 dollars cheaper. Take the wait and save your money.
Owner was cool at first, the next time I went in I asked about a Venom figure that I had seen the week prior and i had no idea it was a fake. He sold me a bootleg venom for $90 👎🏼 …
Great comic and vintage toy store with great prices! Bronze, Silver, and Golden Age goodness! Dan was super friendly, helpful, and enthusiastic about comics and toys. My entire childhood was in this store. This store has everything! This is easily one of my top 2 comic & toy shops in the area. Can’t wait to go back!
Place has alot, but the dude is WAY OVER PRICED. Almost everything has no price tags and when I asked about 1, he said $50...which is double that of even ebay highest price was $20
I asked about a speed racer car in a locked case and he said $45 when it had a price tag from ROSS for $9.99 still on it.
He also asked us what we are looking for and he was showing us crap that we ha no interest in.
Hes a collector and price gouge.
All these pictures on google maps are old. This place has evey shelf full and falling over.
Dan just kept pulling grails out from every corner. Dude was super attentive and accommodating. He knows it all and had it all.
This place probably has exactly what you're looking for (if the shop owner can remember where he put it) and also that perfect thing that you never knew you needed until now. Walking through the store is like walking through a small museum. There's such a a broad diversity of collectables, toys, and comics, that you could spend half the day perusing the shelves with all the delight of attending a garage sale. This place is cool to visit even if you just want to browse, and the shop owner is very knowledgeable and makes great conversation.
We discovered this shop as we were looking for a place that would buy Funko pops and anime books that my daughter no longer wanted. He paid us on the spot what felt to be an extremely fair price for our items. The shop was also packed full of comics and related items and should be a must visit for anyone into that genre. Parking is a little awkward behind the store, but worth it!
I'm not gonna lie they have nice things but you know when we collect vintage toys we love the hunt!!! And is easy to buy it online but that thrill is nice, but then you find someone in the store that judge you for your appearance well... rather take my business online big disappointment
Everything is extremely overpriced and the owner is not friendly. He loved to talk about how much stuff he has but must not like selling it.
Went in yesterday and was very surprised at the selection, and how friendly/ knowledgeable the owner is! Superheros, transformers, Alien and predator, anime, comics and more. Well for sure be returning in the future! I highly recommend checking it out.
I passed by chewmies while driving down Nebraska. I finally got a chance to pop in. I was blown away by all the awesome toys, comics and collectibles. They have vintage stuff, new stuff, good prices and the owner was super friendly. Dan was extremely personable, greeted everyone who walked in and took the time to help me, show me around the store, and let me browse without feeling like someone was looking over my shoulder. He has a great selection of CGC graded comics, and way more graded comics than you see on the walls. If you're looking for it just ask, he probably has it. Thanks so much Dan, I'll definitely be in for more, or just for great conversation. If you're in the Tampa area I would definitely check him out!
Five stars! This store truly has a collection of a lifetime! From the moment you walk in you can embrace your inner child and recall the memories you had growing up. But what really sets this store apart is the amazing owner who clearly cares deeply about his collection and wants every customer to have a personalized and enjoyable experience when browsing and purchasing.
It is refreshing to see such a carefully curated collection that would appeal to fans of all ages and interests. I could have spent hours just browsing through all of the titles on the shelves!
But what really impressed me was the way the owner interacted with customers. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about comic books.
Overall, I would highly recommend Chewmies Comics & Collectables!
Love this place!!! Lot of variety and the owner was very nice and informative!! I recommend this place go check it out
Great place to visit if you happen to love transformers! He's got a lot of other stuff too but I'm mostly obsessed with transformers so when I got to store I was amazed at the Gundam, transformers, and even meta bot stuff he had in stock! Not a Funko pop run store but he's got a bunch of those too! Worth the visit!
Lots of goods. Unfortunately vastly over priced. Owner was pretty rude too.
Van was super helpful and the collection was INSANE..I could spend days there and not see everything they have to offer
No doubt about it……..this shop has the goods!! Chewmies has comics, toys, and other collectables, that appeal to all age groups. As a comic and vintage toy collector, I could spend all day, in this shop. The owner, Dan, is a great guy and knowledgeable salesman. Dan is passionate about collecting and his love, for the hobby, is up-lifting. It is always a pleasure to meet someone that loves toys and comics, as much as I do. I would highly recommend Chewmies Comics and Collectibles, to everyone!! Best of luck and wishes!! ✌🏽❤️
Great store with a lot of retro action figures and comic books. The owner Dan makes the overall experience special as soon as you walk in. Will definitely be back many times over to buy some more awesomeness. Great looking building as well !
If you're looking for the motherlode of fop-tier comics and graded, signed collections,. THIS is the place! Dan is the owner and operator of this store and the guy knows his stuff! He has comics, collectibles and more. And he's a nice guy to get to know! Tell him I sent you!
Overwhelming in the ABSOLUTE best way possible. This place is amazing. Aside from the eclectic new and vintage inventory, the owner is a hidden gem inside of a hidden gem. He was so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Will for sure be back.
Found this place on a random search... pleasant surprise! Lots of anime and rare stuff you won't find elsewhere. Parking in the back is tight. Really great selection and I know I'll be back!
Absolutely awesome place and the owner is highly knowledgeable as well as polite.
First time there and I love it. The place is awesome. If you're looking for your childhood collectibles, comics, toys this the place to go. The owner Dan is awesome Knowledgeable and very respectful. Go and check his store out.
I was amazed at all the old school,and new items throwback comics.plus action figures galore best spot I have found since moving here since 2008 this spot definitely won't disappoint anybody support this store we need it to be around as long as he wants to.
I came here 4 weeks ago and bought couple vinyl records. My bf bought me few big boy comics, he said oh I'll sell it to you, because I was going to keep them for myself, huh...... really? But , the owner came off kinda cocky, rude, and pushy, and I didn't like that. I used the bathroom and he said oh, the bathroom is big huh? Weird.
I won't come back owner didn't make me feel comfortable at all.
I only went to look for some back issue comics. The prices were insane. I didn’t look at anything else so maybe the other stuff is normal like toys, etc..
Horrible owner very rude and condescending , Way over priced items, however has lots of product
Great store! Great experience - highly recommend this spot - super helpful and knowledgeable owner! May the force be with you! I’ll be buying more Kenner from you!
First time visiting store. Took my grandson. It was a wonderful experience. Will be purchasing some holiday gifts. Owner very help and knowledgeable. We highlightly recommend stopping by.
There were a lot of good, old fashioned collectable comics and toys that everyone can get into. The owner is very nice and helpful with finding what I need. I will coming back soon to collect more valuables.
Dan has a HUGE selection of comic books, action figures, games, toys. New, vintage and antique. Lego, Star Wars, Funko and more. Parking lot is behind the store (use the alley)
Great books and action figures here but way overpriced! But if you've got the money then you'll definitely find plenty of great items here.
Definitely an impressive selection of older toys, magazines, comics, etc. The person working also came off as rather pushy, which I don’t appreciate when trying to browse.
Almost nothing has a price tag on it, and the items that do are a tad overpriced.
Great selection of vintage toys, collectibles, and comics. It is definitely worth a visit. Something for everyone and the owner is very passionate and knowledgeable.
Awesome store for collectors. Toys comics and so much more. Mint books. All kinds of goodies. The owner is super friendly and kind. I HIGHLY recommend this store to everyone.
Went today to check it out, was a good time, definitely will be going back the owner was super nice to talk too even hooked me up with a great deal on set I've been looking for.
BUYERS BEWARE. Guy sold me six packs of Surging Sparks that were already ripped open. Didn’t know until I got home.
Really good selection of gi joe figures
Tons and tons of inventory to look at, Comics, Collectibles, Toys, Video games, Anything you can think of. Even some sports stuff. Lots of Toy Biz, Hasbro, and 50’s-present Toys
Great collections, some new finds and fantastic knowledgable passionate owner! Nice to have this in the neighbourhood! Will def be going back.
Daniel was so nice! The store had very cool things! So glad I could get my niece a present :)
This place is amazing! Dan is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Could spend hours just looking through the diverse collection.
