Uncle Sven's Comic Shoppe

I met a locked door when I arrived at 8:05 pm this Thursday. They had closed at 8, what a bummer. Disappointed, I walk away. I heard a someone calling after me. Hans was calling for me to come inside. He was happy to let me in and purchase my comics. I was overjoyed and we quickly found what I wanted. As he rang me up, I asked him if he knew when the new Fables trade was coming out. These guys take customer service to the next level. Not only did they re-opening their doors for me, but Hans took down my information and order me a copy of the new Fables trade paperback. These guys freakin' rule!! more

Uncle Sven's my neighborhood's comic shop. While it's small in size has a surprising amount of back issues and wonderful customer service. I've not had any problems finding new issues of mainline titles either--in fact if it's big brother The Source* has sold out of a first-run book, the first place I call is Sven's. It's charming in every sense and a gem from a bygone age. They also have a limited supply of gaming products, enough to get you started on a Saturday night without making a run out to The Source. And, of course, Sven's has the same great customer service as the mothership! *The Source Comics and Games and Uncle Svens are owned by the same parent company. Pros: Great customer service Cons: Limited selection due to size, but still pretty good more

This old time shoppe is not too big/not too small, carries exactly what they need and knows their clientele well. Hans, I believe he's the store owner, made me feel like I was family 30 second walking through the door. Most people would boast that The Source is the best in town though they don't hold a candle to Uncle Sven's customer service. A wealth full of knowledge and a relaxed casual attitude, this is MY FAVORITE COMIC BOOK SHOP IN MINNESOTA! Pros: Relaxed and Casual more

A friendly neighborhood store, staffed by knowledgeable people. Stopping by is always fun and the best part is you never know what you'll find a Sven's! It's a real community place and I've turned all of my friends on to it! Pros: Great Service & Selection! Cons: No Ice Cream! more
