[QUOTE="Gizzard, post: 12566, member: 527"] Gator in San Mateo is probably the best run general game shop in the Bay Area. I do like several others; the various GameScapes, SuperStars for MtG, but Gator gets most of my business by having a large selection of all sorts of stuff. If I want the Lord of the Rings board game, I can find it there. If I want a Celtos mini, I can find it there also. Plenty of RPGs, Warhammer and board games. They are constantly discounting merchandise to keep it moving; if its not a special 20% off day (like this week is, in honor of the MLK holiday) then you can collect stamps which give you back $15 on every $100 spent. They've been around for a good while too; I remember them being big in the Magic scene back in the day. About 50 people would gather on the sidewalk outside the shop to trade cards. Ah, good times. So where else do people go in the Bay Area? Or LA for that matter? I just made a little pilgrimage around the LA game shops when visiting over Christmas, but I am always looking for new places.
