Time Travelers

I was referred to Time Travelers by a friend who started me playing Magic: The Gathering, because it was the closest card shop to me, and the next nearest one was out in Livonia. Pros: Staff that makes you laugh, good variety, good quality items Cons: Parking is BEHIND the store more

PROS: huge collection of comics, lots of toys both for collecting and playing, amazing setting for CCG (ex. Magic the Gathering).\r \r CONS: dusty, disorganized, high prices, next to nothing buying price offers. the owner is just plain rude and obnoxious. more

If you are a large, homely man with a sour attitude and a surly demeanor, why not open a comic book shop? That's certainly what the owner of Time Traveler's did! His store is nothing special. While it is stuffed with tons of different toys, comics, and collectibles that would make comic enthusiasts and kids alike drool, it is also stuffy, dirty, and a lot of the stuff in the store is just junk. He will offer his brutally honest opinion about the comics you are interested in and if you try to sell him stuff, he will rip your stuff apart before offering an insultingly low price for it. Although I'm sure you could find some interesting things in there, I'd be happy never to see the owners ugly, unfriendly mug ever again. Go to Warp 9 in Clawson instead. It's smaller, but much more shopper-friendly. After all, isn't that what a store is supposed to be? Pros: You may find a hidden gem if you can manage to sift through the piles of dusty junk Cons: The owner, the prices, the customer service, all laughable more

Time Traveler's does have a great selection of comics and toys, both new and used. \r \r However that does not compensate for the owner, who is one of the most rude, hateful individuals I've ever come across in retail. He has absolutely no manners or respect for his customers.\r \r I shop there sometimes but only as a last resort when I can't find what I want somewhere else. more

Tons and tons of awesome stuff. Great comic book pull service. All new comics are 20% off!!! Staff is always entertaining. more

Let me just say this...this is one of the worst stores I have ever set foot in! "Is the Owner In?" You Better Hope NOT, he is rude, corrosive, and just plain unpleasant! He ripped my son's gameboy off him when he was only 10! Just Plain avoid this unorganized, toxic wastedump! Its absolute filth! more

Pro - Huge Selection of comics\r Con - Most poorly organized "Huge Selection" of comics that no one wants in the area.\r \r I dont know what the other reviewers were talking about, but the staff was anything but friendly. more

I went there to pick up two books, I skimmed through each and the attendent basically told me to read them at home. He gave some lame excuse saying someone came in and read 6 books and didn't buy. I don't think a customer should be pressured to buy and go home. It's bad business. I wouldn't recommend going here. They need to understand customer service and realize that the more people are given the chance to read the books chances are they will buy the ones they plan to buy and maybe pick up a few more they never read or new existed. I'm not shopping there anymore. more

My best friend worked there for over 12 years. They have everything you need if you're a comic fan. Plus they have tons and tons of collectibles, probably the biggest this side of the country. Pros: Variety, Helpful, Great Location more

Time Travelers comic book shop has been around for years. I first visited it 17 years ago when I lived in Royal Oak, and it is still going strong, which not many comic book places have lasted this long. They have an enormous comic book selection, both used and new. I sold them comic books many years ago, but have only been in there buying in recent years. The staff is very helpful in looking for what you want, which is good with the volume they have. They carry some of the more avant garde comics as well as classic Marvel and DC. You can also buy trading cards, beanie babies and miscellaneous comic related items. PROS: Huge selection, great staff CONS: Hard to look through all the stuff they have more

This is a really cool and HUGE comic store with lots of books, magazines, collectibles, and rarities. I love browsing through the japanese comics and seeing the sheer amount they have! I always find something I'm dying to buy and even new things I didn't know existed yet! Definitely a great place to buy amazing rare items and comics. more

Time Travelers has an incredible amount of comic books, memorabilia, sports cards, and other miscellaneous items. They offer both used, collectible, and new items in a large store format. The drawback is that it is not entirely user-friendly. It's sort of intimidating for the casual shopper, just due to the sheer volume of items. more

The staff are friendly and helpful in finding you the collectibles that you want. I've gotten Star Wars and Beanie Babies. They have a huge collection of comics too. more
