Placerville Trading Post

I check out this store maybe 15 times a year or so for the past 4 years. Domingo, the owner is kind. I feel I always go in at the end of the day so the customer service isn’t exquisite as in happy to see me or whatever, but it isn’t necessary, when I ask question’s Domingo is happy to answer and knowledgeable. His business survived the pandemic so credit is due where credit is due. I find some of the prices to be a bit much though the rarity and authenticity of the items are unmatched. The overpricing of some items is fair considering you know you’re getting an authentic item, so you are paying for a service as much as you are paying for a product. With manufacturing the way it is and brick and mortar stores going out of business it’s RARE you can find a place that has the niche nerd thing you’re looking for, without paying shipping or gambling that what you buy isn’t a fake. There are many items for a ton of modern hobbies, or retro aesthetic; including old cameras , retro games, old comics, old music, and everything in-between. Domingo has rare appreciation for older media that many people can share enthusiasm for.

Cool place. This is more like a comic book toy store. A geeks dream store. There are other cool items as well. You just need to check it out.

The best retro video game store I’ve ever been too. Such a huge collection of games for any console. The large DVD selection and some Legos & other toys are also great.

Been here a few times for Nintendo64 stuff.
Buying and selling.
The owner is Hella cool and laid back.
Easy to talk to and patient.
If you need old games or cards or whatever this is the spot.

Love this place! All the awesome collectables. So many old Nintendo games that we had growing up. Not many of these stores around. Lucky to have one

the guy is super cool, this is definitely my favorite stoy to get my older video games from! would highly recommend. Good prices and a good feel.

I really love this store, being that there’s only a few left like this nowadays. you can get your retro games, weapons, hentai. 🤓🙃

Best deals for games amazing customer service and overall a amazing store

Was able to finish my Berserk manga collection at a great price here. Super awesome place

A cool little place with new and changing inventory all the time.

Owner is very knowledgeable.

Cool. I got a GameCube here!

Much legos

Went in to sell a guitar once and the youbger guy working there couldn't find a pric for the exact guitar on ebay so he decided to offer like $50 for it complete rip off, if the music store was still around i'd most likely get way more

The wife and I were walking down Main street in Placerville, when we heard people arguing loudly. That is when we saw the owner of The Trading Post yelling at a couple that was trying to park in front of his store. Telling them to get out of there and then he started cussing at them when they rolled the window down to ask if that spot was available he became very rude and continued to yell profanities. The couple drove off and as we continued walking up the sidewalk he began putting up sandwich signs in a public parking spot; advertising his business. I for one will never be shopping at a business where the owner handles situations in this manner. So enter at your own risk; you might get your head bit off though. LOL
