| - Get your next game here. Seriously, do it. You won't regret it. You don't even have to come in with much of an idea of what you want either. All you need to do is talk to Brian, and he'll show you something you'll like based on a few simple questions for you. He's the most helpful person i've talked to about games, because not only does he have a good depth of knowledge of nearly every game in the store, but he's also very understanding of the fact that not everyone who goes into I'm Board is a game expert (or trying to be one). He was able to help me gauge which games to buy based on the groups of people I wanted to play with, what games we already have, and what budget we were on. He even offered to let us open the games and try them out briefly before we bought them!
Other good things here include:
- A noninvasive loyalty/rewards program that rewards you just for signing up. When you sign up, you get enough points to get $10 off your next purchase.
- A space of tables for playing games. They have several events a month, ranging from casual to competitive to particular game leagues.
- A good selection. Pretty much any board game being sold nationally is sold there. There were some games I didn't find there, but not surprisingly, Brian knew the games in question and informed me that they're in between print versions.
The only con about I'm Board is that a lot of the products can be found for cheaper on Amazon (albeit not much cheaper, usually). But, i'd like to think that the extra cash is being used toward funding the events, and for getting the very useful extra information about the games that I wouldn't find online. This extra information from Brian has always made all of my purchase decisions easier, and i've been very happy with everything i've bought from here. If gaming is your hobby at all, then you'd do well to check out I'm Board!
